RULES and REGULATIONS
We elect officials to rule us. They make the rules and regulations. This is necessary to keep order and harmony. But some of their decisions go way to far. For example out of the blue statues of civil war soldiers are now morally offensive. A few squeak and the officials/politicians come running in to pass rulings to remove them. Thus showing how moral they are. There are a lot of things that offend people. I don't like politicians that lie to me, are they removed? Only when their terms run out or they retire.
Free speech is taking a beating in good old USA. Hillary Clinton said the first and second Amendments of the Constitution should have limits. So according to her, officials in government should decide what we can say and not say. The first and second Amendments were written to protect the people from the Hillary's in government.
Now we have payed mobs in the streets ( squeaky wheels) who demand to be greased.
The charge of racism is being used to destroy the first Amendment. Without the protection of the first Amendment what happens to the most cherished right, which is the FREEDOM to speak freely. The first Amendment was written to protect ALL SPEECH not just morally accepted speech but offensive disgusting speech. If I am not able to speak my mind then I am a SLAVE.
Thanks For Share.
Your welcome.
Yeah, this country is in trouble. I feel somewhat sheltered living here in rural Iowa. The violent events seem to stay a good distance away, but the news really brings it home and makes me worry for my children. I re-steemed this post.
Thanks @countryinspired. Was starting to think no one wants to touch this subject for being called a racist or bigot. These Confederate statues are a form of Free Speech. Some may not like it, but the First Amendment is there to PROTECT ALL SPEECH. This is very dangerous.
