While I don't agree with your views and beliefs, you have always been constant and I know what to expect from you when certain topics arise and you aren't swayed by the masses. Beliefs and opinions are great and make us all unique, but what the world is missing on a grander scale which is the absence of a moral compass and accountability as we see it day in and day out from a large perspective down to each and every daily interaction. It is sad to see how far we have all fallen as a human race, not just as individual countries, communities, and townships! I may criticize the current administration, but I will support those that are putting their lives on the line for what I believe is wrong and an ill conceived war that could have been handled in a much better fashion which stems from bad effective policy going back for decades. I am not a liberal nor a conservative, but a human being that has different beliefs, some of which I probably share the same with you as others we couldn't be further apart as that is both of our rights! I hope that one's differences do not shape the man or create a further divide, but the reemergence of morals and accountability will bring together a divided people all struggling to make sense of a world that is lost in darkness and descending to anarchy
I appreciate your words and won't denigrate the good will behind them by parsing them.
The title of this thread includes the words "Freedom of Speech". I think the Bill of Rights might be the most important document ever written by mere men.
