Default aww, i don't know what the subject is...

The United States 1-2... that’s BS they think that more "rights" for homosexuals is going to give us more freedom? Complete BS

If that’s what they call democracy than I want no part in it... besides aren't we supposed to be a democratic-republic?

Ok I should settle down, I’ve heard of these numbers many times, I think this is the webmasters take on democracy. Besides a perfect government does not let you do everything you want...

Default F-R-O-G The US got a good rank.

F-R-O-G United States had a rank 1 for political freedom and rank 2 for civil rights, thats a very good rank over all. My guess is that the new security laws introduced after the WTC attack is the reson why you got a 2 in civil rights ranking rather then a 1. Sure the civil rights rank isn't the best possible but it do come close.

Default i want the right to shut there website down

"rights" does not equal what we want to do. there is such a thing as too many "rights", like we don't have the right to use coke, if we did that would be bad. so more "rights" are not always better. those that have a 1 for civil rights have too many "rights"

Default These ranks don't say much...

...technically Amnesty International has cited Finland for human rights abuses, as we imprison people unwilling to perform required military service.

These ranks give a general indication of the human rights followed in any country, but are not all inclusive.
