Jesus Christ, I'm talking about going to Cuba, North Korea or China and speaking out against their government.

Are you claiming that it's perfectly safe to speak out against the US government? Bradley Manning, Edward Snowden and Julian Assange might be inclined to take a different view.bobevenson wrote:Jesus Christ, I'm talking about going to Cuba, North Korea or China and speaking out against their government.

Jesus Christ, are you kidding??? You can stand in front of the fucking White House and shout, "Obama, go straight to Hell!"

That's why you need me, Bob.
