Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms
Oh, yeah...there's more where that came from. The UK, doesn't even have a constitution and they're people enjoy the same types of rights and freedoms as you do.
The US is not the last bastion on "freedom and democracy".

I think the frustration lies in the fact that there are people who, whenever ANYTHING happens in this country that they don't like, say "That's it, if this happens I'm leaving." There's constant talk by these people that if so and so happens, they're leaving the U.S. It could be taxes, elections, judicial appointments, whatever.
That's fine, if people want to leave they are free to do so. There are many other parts of the world where they can go and continue to live out the rest of their lives. It just gets a little annoying when that becomes people's rallying cry.
This isn't a Democrat/Republican thing either. I've heard Republicans use the same terms when talking about the possibility of Hillary Clinton being President.
