Seeing as how we're born free, as in its innate and cannot be taken away, I chose security. If the option was Liberty or Security then I would've chosen Liberty.

I fight battles that are worth fighting. I am healthy and the global elites won the battle of public opinion. Science doesn't matter anymore when billionaire pharmaceutical companies pay doctors to tell lies.

true liberty would've been the more correct term to use

i used freedom however because it pretty much means the same thing but requires common sense to appreciate


and people have been born into slavery btw

Slaves are free but contain varying lesser degrees of liberty depending on the situation and circumstances. For example, slaves are free to try and escape or injure their "masters" however they do not have the liberty to choose their own work or decide how to spend time with friends and family.

Never wearing a mask. Never getting jabbed. Don't care what laws are made or what "science" says. Will shoot anyone in the face that tries to make me.

Edit: I liked this so much I made it my sig. :thumbsup:

By "packed with Roman troops" you mean an occasional fort along convenient border structures.

Hadrian's wall and the limes were not delimiters of the Roman empire. They were locations of convenient fortification where they could station troops to harass invading forces if necessary. They didn't exercise strict border control in the sense of a modern nation, where you have checkpoints for everybody entering or exiting the country. You could walk between empires unmolested by governments.

Rome built up over several hundred years and for a lot of that time they weren't anything special is my point. They were a very slow and steady buildup over a period of time far longer than the entire history of the United States


i think Hadrian's wall had better border security than the modern USA, tbh. and no, im not joking. and that was the FARTHEST fringe of the roman empire on an island.

the impressiveness of Rome is only overshadowed by the impressiveness of it's fall. Rome is the goat civilization, even if they did steal stuff from almost everyone. Adaptability is a skill in itself.

Id say anyone who posts such moronic things online is more likely to be the overweight idiot yelling at the 16 year old hostess in the restaurant about why hes not being let in.

I've seen it and its hilarious for everyone. Although, I do feel bad for the young kids dealing with adult toddlers.

Idk why you bother when you don’t elaborate on your talking points
It’s almost as if you only know buzzwords
