The only thing that is unique, in my opinion, is the Bill of Rights which has been whittled down to nothing. 1st amendment is under attack and 2nd amendment is also under attack. 4th amendment is gone - ask Snowden about that one. 5th amendment is nearly gone..thanks to Scalia. 6th, 7th, and 8th amendments are gone - justice system is woke and dysfunctional and 10th amendment has been trampled more times than we can count. So, I ask you what is unique at this point?
