Where is there dignity unless there is honesty?
--Cicero (106 BC - 43 BC)
Anyone who has the power to make you believe absurdities has the power to make you commit injustices
-- Voltaire, 1767
these are powerful quotes. This site should be chilling to anyone who values what America was originialy designed to be; (go here:
http://www.thousandreasons.org/newlist.html ) A place of unbeleavable freedom but at the price of never ending vigilance.
We are now giving up our freedoms slowly, silently, for security from an entity that is not even well defined. Terrorists it seems are everywhere and we must be protected we must obey the orders from our goverment to live. I for one would rather die free then live in fear and without freedom.
Good will was never bought with a gun or a bribe, it is won through trust dialogue and respect. How many Americans show any concern for the people in Iraq or Afganastan? do we think that killing them will teach them a lesson and they won't hate us more?
we as a country are losing our way.
