@spendius,

I do. The stats of opinion polls do. I have met many people who have fought for freedom and survived and would never support your position. The British Legion does not support your position.
Well, if any of them come here and insist on violating my Constitutional rights, I'll be sure to call them a freedom hater.

Yes, but you seem not to understand why everyone wanted it.
It had nothing to do with shoring up national defenses.
spendius wrote:I am objecting to you calling people who disagree with you "freedom haters".
It is legitimate to refer to people as what they actually are.
spendius wrote:You can't wrap yourself in the freedom flag with words.
Yes I can.
spendius wrote:Only people who have fought for freedom can do that.
The notion that only people who participate in the military should be allowed social standing is Fascism.
American is not a Fascist nation.
spendius wrote:You are blaspheming our Battle of Britain pilots in one sweet, easy breath.
You are the one who brought them up and then suggested that they have a loathsome point of view.

So?
spendius wrote:Our Police Service does not support your position.
I'd think not. They like their serfs nice and compliant.
I imagine that the idea of free people refusing to surrender their liberty would horrify your police.
spendius wrote:You're the real freedom hater because you use emotive propaganda to fill a void in your argument.
No, I'm a freedom defender.
And if you think there is some sort of void in my argument, go ahead and try to point it out.
(I'm betting you can't point out any such voids.)

Your bigotry is offensive and uncalled-for.
spendius wrote:Just don't accuse your opponents of being freedom haters because they are not.
Sure they are. Look at all the endless ranting on this thread about how terrible our freedom is.
spendius wrote:I haven't invented things to call your side.
You do occasionally post bigoted stereotypes about us. And you are far from the only poster in this thread.
