Dolores:
I think you are angry because you cant drink alcohol with your friends at midnight in dad's car, which is a possibility.
I understand you because you live in USA, so freedom is a stupid thing like that. In other countries (as you can compare) freedom is something to fight for. In my country (Argentina) people died last december trying to steal food from "your" Wallmart, Mc Donalds, etc.
In these places of the world we have another meaning for freedom. We are trying to get it because we dont want to dye, to starve,to be poorer each time.
Unfortunately we dont care if you cant drink alcohol. By the way: The pigs of Animal Farm changed the commandements to get drunk.
It's not a personal fight. you know.
All human beings are equal
But people of usa are more equal than the others.
