“History tells us basically that this country came to be because of dissent against a government which abused its’ powers by abusing its’ citizens. The dissidents of that time are heroes now. We once again find ourselves under the tyrannical rule of a King George. What you read here are those exercising their rights and responsibilities to speak out against injustice. I suggest you read ‘On Liberty’ by John Stuart Mill. He describes the idea of personal liberty within a democratic society and the responsibility of its’ citizens to hold the government to high ideals and codes of conduct. You are very wrong. We are unhappy because we love the United States so much.” (08/26/08) Link: http://www.unknownnews.org/0808-26.html#MM Filed under: RRND Commentary | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
