I was in love with the passion of the American people for civil rights. I visited in 2004 and read Archibald Cox "The Role of the Supreme Court in American Government" and "Freedom of Expression" in the Boston Public Library after some college student left it on a table, and then went and annoyed other Australians about it for years.
I came here because I wanted to create a better life (the same as any other immigrant), not because I had any axes to grind. Can you blame me for being disillusioned? Again, not cool.
