> "America today would terrify the Founding Fathers. Armed troops roam the streets of major cities, masked government agents arrest people without probable cause and disrupt the public speech that the president hates and fears, and the president kills foreigners on the high seas whom he says might commit crimes should their small speedboats miraculously make it 1,500 miles to the United States."

> "History teaches that personal liberty once lost does not come back, and government power once acquired remains."

--Andrew Napolitano

Absolutely! Once freedom slips through our fingers, it's tough to get it back. Gov power sticks around like a bad habit. Let's stay woke and protect our rights! 💪 #Liberty #StayVigilant

I bet they would be way more shocked to realize foreign invaders with not identification or tracking possible are roaming the country while being financed by external economic and political powers to disrupt the economy, natality and the balance of vote.

I don't know, immigration was more free and less regulated in their day. But they probably would be shocked at who all is allowed to vote.

Yes but at that time foreign powers where not using immigration as a weapon. There where not NGO's that plan mass immigration, cards and phones for those who come, lawyers for papers and so on. Usually poor Europeans would take a ship pay for it, being treated like cattle and disinfected with DDT , receive no welfare at all. A different picture. And if we want to go to the founding fathers time, you were not even sure to survive the trip and then would face the unknown with zero help. How many would come today in that condition? Zero.
