    One thing western liberals will never understand is that once you branch out into the world, and really have the opportunity to live and experience the customs of difference societies, you’ll quickly realize that different countries have ‘vastly’ different ideas about what they believe their relationship to the government should be.

    I’ll never forget the British chick on some UK television program, that was stumped by an ISIS sympathizer in the UK when she asked him “what happens to most people who don’t want to obey the law in your country?,” and he replied back, “what happens to most people who don’t want to obey the law of Britain? ‘They get arrested’.” She froze on the panel and got dead silent, before pivoting to something else.
