FREEDOM OF SPEECH ~ HAVE WE LOST
IT?
Just by reading a newspaper or watching
news on television, it is easily my observation that there is no longer our
right to have ‘Freedom of the Press’. The ‘Operation American Spring’ (OAS) in
D.C. sure proved that. There were people there for weeks and not one news
network picked up the story. All the information that I received
was from the ‘Mark Connors Show’.

Joe Esposito, a fellow writer and poet,
had his ‘Facebook Timeline’ taken down. His profile was disabled due to
‘Violations of Standards’. What did Joe violate? He posted political poems which
he mentioned names of people currently serving under the present government. Was
that a violation? Under the First Amendment we are allowed to vocalize and write
anything we choose. Have we lost that right?
Situations that I encounter make me think.
I wonder how long it will take before more rights as Americans will be taken
from us. The government is trying to take control of our lives. They have
disarmed many Veterans just because of having PTSD. They want to take away guns
from non-violent Americans but that is another story for another
day.
