America was founded on treason (sort of), wan't it? A group of settlers rebeled against the super-power who wished to rule in the new world. But we value their treason as a valiant fight for freedom.<br /><br />I wish we could enjoy our rights without our government. They interfere too much.G-Rebelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15643815147549753677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1750239339662593269.post-15078738500148352202009-11-03T16:42:13.178-06:002009-11-03T16:42:13.178-06:00You reminded me that dissent used to be treason. ...You reminded me that dissent used to be treason.

It's because of the courage of groups of people to speak up, sometimes without the freedom to do so, that yielded the freedoms I now enjoy.<br /><br />Words, however, aren't harmless. They have stirred many an idiot into committing viscious crimes and heroic deeds. Let free speech reign, punish the deed! Just be careful, free speech isn't free, and the day we think it is, that's the day we deserve to have it taken away.G-Rebelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15643815147549753677noreply@blogger.com
