The Dawn Of A New Civil Rights Era/Voting Does Not Matter

If Americans wish to remain free to enjoy the splendor of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, wish to leave a legacy of liberty and freedom, then it is up to each one of us to become the civil rights leaders of our time.  The American government from Mayor Bloomberg or Mayor Dead Fish to President Bush and President Obama seeks to crush freedom.  The Constitution is under assault every day.  It is up to us to take a stand.  We must stand for free speech, free press, gun rights, the right to be secure in our persons and papers, and so much more.  Martin Luther King, Jr., and hundreds of thousands of others stood, faced beatings, and paved the way for the civil rights movement.  May God bless them all, for they have shown us the way. 

We must take our government to task every time it infringes upon our liberty.  The only thing our government truly understands is money.  Yes, we should wear what we want, even if it leads to our arrest, filing a civil rights lawsuit in order to maintain our right to be offensive, to speak and display any message we desire.  If we reach deep into the pockets of the offending government agency, yes, we are reaching into the taxpayers’ pockets, our pockets, but it is the only way to get the government to stand down.  Wear what you will, not worrying if it is offensive to others.  As Lenny Bruce said when fighting the government for free speech protection, “Without the word fuck, you can’t say “Fuck the government””.  Have courage in the face of tyranny.
