Freedom to not be kidnapped and sent a torture/forced labor hellscape? Fake, unimportant

Everyday as I leave my favela in the Northside slums of Chicago, I make my way through hordes of illegal alien rapists, murderers and drug dealers that have taken over every city block. This is what a city under siege looks like.
