This just baffles me. I am so glad that the folks that fought the American Revolution did not try and contribute to a more nuanced conversation.
I bowing out of this conversation. I like and respect the vast majority of you folks and I can feel my blood pressure rising...
Different times, different situations. If you feel your situation is comparable, do what they did. Flee to a new country, take up arms against your former tyrannical government, declare personal independence, fight a long and bloody war (don't forget to win), and start from scratch. Or, recognize that they did all of that heavy lifting granting us the freedom to have a more nuanced conversation.
