>in the country where flag burning is constitutionally protected? Which means precisely nothing. Laws are just an illusion of order that only exists if the enforcers make it so. Photographing cops is also protected, yet if you do it you might end up in the hospital with your camera broken, charged with assaulting a police officer. People in the US mostly aren't afraid of their government. Maybe they never will be. But the US government does unspeakable things inside and outside the borders of the US. The majority aren't afraid because they aren't yet effected. Maybe the majority will never be effected or never know it. One thing I would ask you; we know the government gets support from the press in the form of omissions. Is it completely impossible that someone inside the US has been "disappeared" without us knowing? How would we know if it wasn't reported? A lone family crying about a missing loved one can be ignored pretty easily if the media doesn't blow it up for all to see.
