I could take issue with the Doctor's characterization of relative
freedoms in the US and UK (which included all of Ireland until this past
century), but all countries have things in their past to be ashamed of.
Looking over history with a broad perspective, the US and UK are both
beacons of freedom, and our own traditions for civil liberties come
entirely from the founding fathers' perception of themselves as
Englishmen and their love of the freedoms of Englishmen. This is a
stupid thing to argue over.
 
Very true.
