That true. Doesn't have any bearing on gun ownership relating to freedom though...............also the statement has more to do with conspiricy thinking than fact^If freedom from freedom is a freedom, then there are lots of overlooked places that should be ranked a lot higher.
LOL, I haven't thought to do any research on Freedoms on a world wide basis till you mentioned it in a post the other day.
Very interesting statistics. Looking at personal freedom, economic freedom and press freedom, doesn't help your argument that Australians or NZ'ers have less freedoms due to the misconception that the gov't has taken away our right to own a guns.
