@chrisisgr8 yeah, is not that america is not, but there are less events that deny them, because "our history" is mainly focused in "our freedom" from the past. The problem is that, the past can have a lot of "power", when we face the future, and some persons prefer to go back, then grow up. Is a "self control" exercise, but sadly, many did learn that skill, being punished, so they believe that the same condition is to use it to others. :(
