U.S. Constitution Amendment I: "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." As I write this and you eventually read it, we are exercising our Constitutional rights to assemble peaceably and speak freely. The importance of these rights were made clear by Thomas Jefferson himself who said "Where the press is free and every man able to read, all is safe." As such, and to re-secure our further rights to life, liberty and property, I avail you of political analysis that reveals the truth on matters of the day. Yet it requires nerve, and I daresay, responsibility, of both the author and the reader to meet as we do and question the despots and haters of freedom and responsibility. On this matter I again defer to Thomas Jefferson who also said "Timid men prefer the calm of despotism to the tempestuous sea of liberty." May I also add, "Let freedom ring."
