    Tell me:

    • What’s ignorant with you choosing what’s best for you?
    • What’s dumb about exercising your right to choice?
    • What’s so patriotic about you doing something because everyone else is doing it?
    • What makes it selfish to do what’s best for your situation?
    • Just because you question what's going on does not make you ignorant, dumb, selfish, and or not patriotic. Freedom of choice means that the person is able to choose his own course of action and his own pat­tern of living. Fear mongering is not a choice dynamic. It is a deliberate attempt to arouse public fear or alarm about a particular issue.
