  • 'On a scale of one to America, how free are you tonight?'

  • France :(

[–]InsufferableTwat 0 points1 point ago

The poor French. So unfree. If it weren't for their food, wine, culture and generally not giving a shit, I imagine life there would be unbearable.

[–]Pyromania37 3 points4 points ago

Cone of shame for punchline in title.

[–]Joliet_Jake_Blues 22 points23 points ago

Actually, based on per capita jail populations, America is the least free country in the world.

(que the Debbie-Downer noise)

[–]MagnusTheGreat 0 points1 point ago

I guess if other countries had the same laws (allowing weapons and self defense with those weapons and have ridiculous amount of "jail laws") the capita would probably be the same...

[–]hateshypocrites 24 points25 points ago

Recent developments In american politics would point towards this statement being false.

[–]Drando_HS 20 points21 points ago

What is the difference between a Democrat and a Republican?

One pauses before invading a country.

[–]publius4 4 points5 points ago

Which developments, specifically?

[–]Reddit_ruined_memes 3 points4 points ago

habeus corpus, unlawful detainment, wiretapping, etc etc

[–]Ducksaucenem 0 points1 point ago

No no the people in the picture were clearly white.

[–]MagnusTheGreat 0 points1 point ago

"We are a Free Country...Except the government can watch your every move and act accordingly (including killing you if necessary) because we are in war against terrorists...Most of them live in mountains with no electricity and without basic human necessaries, while we spend billions on organizations that do absolutely nothing except being in the way. That is the way of the Free American Man.

[–]hateshypocrites 0 points1 point ago

This election season is a great source of examples; i just read a story about how republican ceo's are pressuring their employees to vote for Romney. Read a story on how someone was caught destroying voter registration forms. Not to mention all the internet freedom and copyright bullshit that has been going on with ACTA and other bills.

[–]MrFisty 0 points1 point ago

Recent developments? Americans have had the illusion of freedom since 1776

[–]MagnusTheGreat 0 points1 point ago

But with modern equipment it is way easier to spy, engage, imprison and/or kill you if necessary.

[–]BlackMateria 3 points4 points ago

Do they have a make out session before or after they eat the pizza?

[–]immatellyouwhat 2 points3 points ago

I love saying this at my retail job. Everyone gets a good laugh out of it.

Isn't it? His name is Steve, I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be them.

[–]mordacthedenier 3 points4 points ago

Also the other guy has a circle on his chest.

[–]Mikulak25 6 points7 points ago

It would appear you are correct.

Why is that ironic?

[–]grimmlingur -3 points-2 points ago

because as joliet_jake_blues pointed out america is in some sense the least free country on earth

[–]GamerKT 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, North Korea's a bastion of freedom, ain't it? ಠ_ಠ

[–]ettiol 0 points1 point ago

[–]quintyoup 0 points1 point ago

Post this to r/ murica, they love this stuff over there

[–]teh_beast 1 point2 points ago

You know what's not free? Your health care

[–]anchises868 0 points1 point ago

I don't know, there are some women who like to hang out in a certain district of my home town. They're American all right, but they're not exactly what you'd call "free".

Some of them are downright expensive, like they're any better than the other ones, just a little prettier in the face and...

[–]TheLemonKing 0 points1 point ago

Something tells me Overly Patriotic Steve is going to be a meme someday.

[–]Wisdom_from_the_Ages 0 points1 point ago

Silly rest of the world. You have to give up your rights to be truly free.

[–]Osskyw -3 points-2 points ago

You US americans, with all of you thinking you're free...yeah right.

[–]Sokonomi -4 points-3 points ago

Free from religion and racial segregation. Oh wait..

[–]ScoutTf2 -1 points0 points ago

[–]Punkrocker333 -1 points0 points ago

[–]franick1987 -2 points-1 points ago

The irony is that America is not free.

[–]ctkatz -4 points-3 points ago
