Looks great r0xi. Nice composition. I really like the flag in the back ground. Well done.

actually, it was the anti-federalists that gave us freedom of the press, in fact the entire bill of rights was to appease them. The idea came from George Mason, who was instrumental in passing a similar document in the Virginia Constitution. And we can thank James Madison, the author of the American Constitution, for adding a stronger wording to our freedom of religion clause. (the chagrin of fundamentalist Christians to this very day) I wish people would get American history right, for a change. It was the politicians. In all the armed revolutions in the world, only two have resulted in representative democracies. The United States and ... Turkey. Funny, eh?
Nice picture though...

you miss the point. it is because of those who lay down their lives for our freedom that we can continue to enjoy such concepts as freedom of press and speech, after all, of what worth would freedom be without anyone to defend it, whith that said, very nicely done collage, and very true.

And, of course, it is soldiers who give us the right to despoil wonderful postings such as this with unwarranted spins on history in order to serve our own cynicism. Let those who miss the point observe totalitarian regimes closely: soldiers can also take those rights away. Thank God -- and the selfless sacrifices of our military -- for the freedoms we enjoy. Thank you for this excellent reminder!
