Los Angeles, CA—Pornography, hate speech and Rock & Roll
music have all come under attack in America.
The religious misfits of the Westboro Baptist Church disrupt funerals of
our fallen soldiers carrying their disjointed messages of hate. In the 1970’s neo-Nazis sought to picket
Skokie, IL, which was where many Concentration Camp survivors were still living.
Repugnant words, displays, videos seem to be
everywhere. Certainly political messages
many of us despise assault us everywhere.
We can’t seem to find refuge from something offensive. Many ignorant people in this land demand strict laws to curb
offensive speech.
There really is no happy medium or acceptable compromise. What we create when we try are subjective
judgments of vague words like immoral, obscene or hateful. When does art become pornography? When is disagreement hate?
The best way we can determine what Americans want
politically is through allowing unfettered free speech.
We don’t really have freedom of thought or
expression even though it’s the law of the land. For example you write a blog like mine and
you freely express your opinion it could be a liability.
These days, potential employers conduct
routine Internet searches of applicants and if they don’t like what you published they will discriminate
against you. That’s all too common in
the entertainment and news business.
Hate speech is a certain sign that freedom still exists in
this nation. It should really be music to our
ears.
If certain speech is outlawed than people become too afraid to
express their true opinions. Despots
like Castro, Hitler and Stalin loved to brag how they are supported by 100% of
their populations. Not all of the seemingly
adoring Germans loved Hitler. There was
a severe price to pay if you did not display reverence for the swastika and
Hitler. We will never know just how
unpopular Hitler was after he invaded Poland and the USSR.
Communists and Nazis demand loyalty of everyone they
rule. Severe penalties were levied
against people they merely suspected may not have liked their form of government or
leaders.
Anonymous letters and phone
calls suggesting disloyalty were always sufficient evidence for the Gestapo,
KGB or Stazi to remove a couple’s children out for adoption or even to an orphanage.
After 1939 Nazi Germany used the fact that they were at
war as an excuse to hang people that refused to give the Hitler salute or were
caught listening to foreign radio broadcasts.
American or British style Swing Dance music was viewed as enemy
propaganda and there was always some draconian form of punishment for minimal
resistance.
Suggesting in any way that Nazi Germany or the USSR was violating
human rights or that those forms of government were simply inadequate could and
did often bring the death penalty.
What we seem to somehow forget is that East German
Communists were killing anyone they could trying to escape to the West until
the Wall came down in 1989. I can’t help
but believe fleeing Communism is yet another form of speech.
Make no mistake Communists are in the Halls of our Congress and
the Whitehouse today. Their constant
assault on liberty, freedom and the Bill of Rights has heralded their true loyalties. Their actions speak clearly for
them despite their claimed political party labels.
Yes, I’d spit on Barack Obama because of the Red Color of
his politics and constant lies. So far,
government should not be able to punish me for saying that. I’m proud to say I detest Obama and all that he
stands for.
Frankly, I see it as my duty as an American to
spill a lot of blood including my own before I let government muzzle me. There is no freedom without free speech.
