It's true that we have freedom of speech in this country. That's why so many people can write posts about how our President is Satan and there's no such thing as God. The U.S. Constitution gives us that right and we don't hesitate to use it. It gives me the right to post this. It's just my view of things. We have other freedoms as well, though. We have freedom of expression. If it wasn't for that, Harold Digby, the hair-lip who worked as the ticket taker at the Capitol Theatre, would be locked up now. Without freedom of expression, he could have never taken a massive dump behind a trash receptacle in the lobby and gotten away with with it. Heck, he wasn't even fired! According to many, he was simply 'expressing' himself in his own simple way.
We have the right to a speedy trial whenever we're accused of anything. That was proven when I was accused in December of driving while impaired and it took five months to get the blood work back. By the time it's all said and done and I can move on, it will be well over a year. Well, really, more like a year and a half if you want to know the truth. I didn't even do anything in the first place. Believe it or not. I feel like Robert Ripley now but that was intentional. Actually, I should have said, believe it or don't. I'm sort of sneaky that way at times. Speedy? Oh, you know it!
We have a right to vote once we've attained the age of eighteen. If a felony is committed, then, that right is forfeited as is the right to own a firearm. Well, if you committed a felony, you have no business owning a firearm. It seems to me that many of the ones who whine the loudest about how they're so upset and hate our elected leaders so much are the ones who don't bother to take the time and effort to vote. It isn't my fault or theirs, either. Why should we have to hear about it? I don't think we should. Do people not vote because they think that their opinion doesn't matter? If that was the case, we'd be forced to scratch to survive in an animalistic anarchy. Yes! Votes DO count! Vote already or hush!
There are people who take ample advantage of those rights and abuse some of the others. I can't wait to see what kind of replies this post gets. I really don't mean to write things of an inflamatory nature but I can't help it sometimes. I see and hear things daily that really get under my skin.
I have a favor to ask of you. This post was intended only to make people think. It wasn't meant to be confrontational in any way. Please, please, please, for the love of God and all that is Holy, don't try to turn it into a debate. It's merely some of my observations. I despise debates with every fiber of my being. I'm not a confrontational person at all. Thanks in advance for your understanding and compliance to my simple request.
