Revision as of 09:06, December 17, 2014
Please better to stop the "Revert War" (unless it is by an American CP administrator) and instead make comments and suggestions on this talk page for editing the material. "Free state" is a big topic in the American Conservative, Libertarian and Christian circles. The old meaning of Antebellum south is rarely used except among historians. I would be willing to move some of it to an essay, however, the majority of it matches conservative values. Please discuss in a civil way without using words like hideous, offensive, etc like User:SamHB used for the previous revert.

That Islamic prick that killed two in the Lindt cafe the other night in Sydney only killed two because all he could get was a shot gun. In America, if he lived in what you call a "free state", he could have got an assault rifle and sprayed the whole room in the twinkling of an eye.
I won't go on because I see you are like those I occasionally met in the old days in Outback pubs who felt naked without their firearms and were usually relieved of their ammunition before the publican would serve them a beer.
Cheers mate.
