Stand Up For America and Freedom

Henry David Thoreau once said, "Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison."

It seems that, these days, good men are being persecuted for nothing more than expressing themselves according to their God-given Right to Free Speech. Therefore, I am going to put my head in the lion's mouth - so to speak - once again for the sake of America and Freedom.

What, I ask you, is the meaning or worth of Freedom if a man is not free to exercise it? How much more is this true if a man cannot exercise his freedom to have and express an opinion? Especially, in his private conversations with his own family.

To quote one of my main heroes, President Ronald Reagan, "Now there you go again..."
  
Today, another white man is being pilloried (publicly humiliated and deprived of his Rights) because he has an unpopular opinion or means of expressing his opinion. I emphasize "white" man, because I have not seen one case where the Civil Rights Tyrants have called for the firing of a black man who uses the "N-word."

The most current victim of the New Thought Police, is bounty hunter Duane "Dog" Chapman. And once again, a white man is being crucified for the unforgivable sin of using the "forbidden" word. The so-called "N-word," that is used lavishly by black men and women in almost all walks of life on a daily basis.

This time Mr. Chapman used the unforgivable (to hear Sharpton and others tell it) N-Word in a PRIVATE CONVERSATION with his own son. And, for this unpardonable "sin" Mr. Chapman has become the target of the so-called "Civil Rights" tyrants; who, in fact, only care about "civil rights" as defined by them and as it applies to THEM.

Further, though Mr. Chapman insists that he is NOT a "racist" (and who could know better than he?), Mr. Chapman is being accused of being a "racist" for his daring to exercise his First Amendment Right to speak his mind in any way he sees fit - including using the infamous N-Word. 

I know it doesn't matter to the Civil Rights mob that I marched in the Civil Rights Marches and defended the equality of all people to equal treatment under the law to my own detriment. Despite my sacrifices, these Civil Rights Tyrants will accuse me of also being a "racist" for daring to stand up for Mr. Chapman's God-Given Right to speak his mind in ANY way he chooses, that Big Al (Sharpton, that is) doesn't approve of.

The "crime" of "racism" of which Mr. Chapman is accused, is not a crime at all. Remember? Do you remember? Can you remember? Back, before the liberal media and the so-called "Civil Rights-for-Me-and-My-Kind-Only" tyrants took over the Right to determine what any man says - in his private conversations. Way back when FREE Speech was truly Free. 

In a Free Country, a man must have the Right to hold a racist opinion.  The Free expression of Racist opinion may be distasteful and even downright obnoxious. But I stand up and stand firm for every man's RIGHT to be distasteful and obnoxious. And every Freedom loving man or woman must do so - or lose Freedom in the bargain. That, is the sole point of this article.

Racism is "one man's opinion." Racism is pandemic among all races. Racism cannot be "outlawed" for one race, unless it is outlawed for all races. Which, is impossible if we are to maintain a Free Society.

But calling for a lynching is another thing. And inciting a mob to lynch a man IS a crime.

But what have we here - today? Aren't "Big Al" (Sharpton) and his minions and the other Civil-Rights-For-Me-And-My-Kind-Only mob doing just that? Isn't demanding that a man have his show cancelled and his livelihood taken away from him for saying a WORD (a word, for God's sake) that others don't like - similar to calling for a lynching - after a fashion? I have a bad feeling that, if they could get away with it - they just might call for a real lynching. Is that where this disgustingly "politically correct" society is headed?

Allow me to tell you where I think this mess is heading if the Civil-Rights-For-Me-And-My-Kind-Only mob and their minions in the mass media - and those who are too afraid to stand up and oppose this madness - keep on going in this direction. Mark my words well.

What is going to happen eventually, is that white America is going to get fed up with this oppression and rebel. And those oppressive measures that are currently being used against white Americans are going to be taken up by white America and used against the very people who are currently acting as their oppressors.

Yes, oppressors. Those who have such small minds and little sense that they wantonly abuse the Good Will and tolerance of all Americans in their attempt to get revenge or retribution against any and all white Americans. This, for the horrible plight of slavery their ancestors suffered hundreds of years ago, under men and women long since dead. And, when that rebellion happens, as it certainly will, REAL Civil Rights are going to be rolled back - perhaps many decades.

Another of my great heroes, Mahatma Gandhi once said "An eye for an eye only makes the whole world blind." He also said, "Fighting fire with fire only burns the whole world down." So it is in this case.

Small minded petty people NEVER have the self-discipline to rein-in their own power over others. So it is with Sharpton and Jackson and all of the other Civil-Rights-For-Me-And-My-Kind-Only petty tyrants that dominate the Media Stage in America today.

The sad fact is that these men and women may have done great good in many ways. But they have become victims of their own power-lust. They have gone from being men and women questing after equality - to petty tyrants questing after DOMINANCE over those of another race. What is it, then, that makes them different from bigots and racists of other colors and races? 

It says in The Bible that "Pride goeth before a fall." The arrogance and power-lust of those who use the race card to try and oppress others will be their downfall. 

If America were not in such difficult times, I might just "save my own neck" by not writing this article and just sit back and watch the show unfold.

But we are in dire straits. We are in a war against a terrorist cause that is making war against us. And there is no room for a man of conscience to sit back silent and let this kind of garbage take its course without comment.

We either have FREE Speech - or we don't. Despite all the legalistic wrangling and hagglings and splitting of hairs, that is what it comes down to. I will leave the parsing of words and splitting of hairs to the effete legal snobs.

Remember, back at the start of America, there were lots of effete legal snobs in England that were doing the same thing. But the folks in America knew better. They knew Freedom from tyranny and said to hell with the legalisms of British judges and governors.

And they rose up against the tyranny of the King. And they rebelled against the tyrants who wanted to tell them how they had to live and what they could and couldn't say. And they formed a Constitution and a Country where such tyranny would NEVER flourish. And they called that country, AMERICA.

But many Americans have become weak and fat and lazy or worse - cowardly. Many Americans have forgotten (or thanks to our corrupt educational system) never knew the WHY that built America. And - out of ignorance or laziness or just plain cowardice - they bow and scrape like so many plantation slaves to the great "god" of public opinion, cringing under the whip of political correctness.

They are suppressed to the point where they will not even so much as offer a whimper, let alone cry out a roar, against the abomination of so-called "hate crime" laws that grow like destructive rust on the machinery of our Free Democracy. For, what are so-called "hate crimes" but THOUGHT CRIMES in the making.

Mark well my words again. If you do not stand up and oppose this madness; if you allow this insanity of "hate crime" laws to grow unchecked - it will not be long before the effete snobs and petty tyrants WILL be dictating to you what you can and can't THINK.

When that day arrives (and it is not far off) America will be America no more. And Freedom will be Free no more. And all Americans will regret it. And especially those who did not have the courage to stand up and speak out - will regret it. And it will take a new revolution and more bloodshed to regain the Freedoms that many take for granted and let go so easily.

Why do I stick my "neck in the noose" and my "head in the lion's mouth" by writing this article? Because I will not go to my grave having been one of those who were complicit in selling out America and our Freedoms to petty tyrants - no matter what the cost.

Will you stand with me?

God Bless you.
God Save America.

Postscript.
I append here, a note that will punctuate this article better than anything I could say. I had spelled out the N-word in the original article, in quotes - as I do not like the word or use it myself. Upon attempting to publish this article, I received a "red flag," saying that the article could not be published with the "N-word" spelled out. This, even though everyone knows full well exactly what the "N-word" means. In order to publish the article, I had to replace the N-word, with the "N-word."
