    I live in germany, and i am not afraid of my government. They have ups and downs but overall its okay, i would say.

    I would leave if i were CONSTANTLY afraid.

      Live in the UK, and I feel the same. Being afraid of the government seems a very US specific thing (at least in first world countries). But having visited the US, they’re generally living in fear more than Europe. Bars on everyone’s houses (or gates on communities). Constant worry about home invasion. Its another level compared to here.
