Dare I even jump into politics? I look at other countries run by drug lords and that doesn't spell freedom for me. As long as we are getting rid of laws, how about we just get rid of all of them. I'm sure that will give everyone all the freedom they want. This party seems to be mainly targeting youth that are just old enough to vote. Well, I'm 24 and I'm not buying it. Why don't I start a political party and call it the Speeding Party and all my supporters will be people who drive too fast and want to change the laws so police don't have to waste all our resources on policing speeders?
