Free Speech.... Not What It's Become.... Corrupted

   People say things quite often. What they say is protected as a part of free speech. I'm ok with that. People should be able to express their opposition to the views and opinions of another.
   I do, however, have an Extreme problem with people that hide behind this freedom. Making remarks that have empty meaning or are cherry picked for the value of exposure and publicity is cheap and an indicator of the useless personal value of the individual.
   
My opinion may not be that of the average American. 


   Individuals that make pointlessly inflammatory statements, verbally stab at others to cause mental pain and suffering or grope randomly in the media darkness to try and gain notice in a failing career should get exactly what they are looking for.
   You want to reach out and challenge the National Anthem as offensive??? Then yes, you should receive all the attention you desire. 
   Your email should be flooded with the opinions of those that think you are the worthless idiot you have presented yourself to be.
   Your Facebook page should be targeted with the comments of those that oppose the mindless blatherings you so Freely have displayed.
   Your Twitter page should be backed up with the infuriated rebuttals to your moronic diatribe.
   Your "snail mail" should even be consumed with the waves of condemnation over your voluntary presentation of stupidity.


   Don't think this is restricted to just the occasion I linked above. This goes for any of the nearly daily volume of those thinking that just because they have a thought that it's ok to express it openly and without reproach.


That's not the intent of the amendment.


   The amendment protects the opposition to governmental maneuvering that abuses the freedoms of the American citizen. If I'm wrong in this, please, call me out on it. 
   The abuse of this freedom has been so blatant for so many years that it's corruption is beyond repair.
   Rights for the American citizen were framed with the intent to protect the average American from the tentacles of government. The founding fathers knew government could grow and become unmanageable and cease to be the representation of the majority. And with that knowledge, the ability of the people to voice their opposition and demand the views of the majority be heard was preserved.


   As it is currently with any minority, however small, with a problem with anything, however trivial, is given center stage. Say what you want when you want since the precedent has been set and the corruption has been embedded.
   But with the freedom in mind, anyone that has an opinion should be called to task, including myself, and be required to defend that "freedom".
   With the invocation of that freedom comes the mantle of defending it. 


Either Stand Up And Defend Freedom When It's Challenged, Or Sit Down And Shut Up When That Freedom Disappears Because You Did Nothing....
