Too many people are only willing to defend rights that are personally important to them. It's selfish ignorance, and it's exactly why totalitarian governments are able to get away with trampling on people. Freedom does not mean freedom just for the things I think I should be able to do. Freedom is for all of us. If people will not speak up for other people's rights, there will come a day when they will lose their own.
This blog intends to be a topical look, time permitting, at what is going in our world. Specifically how the flame of freedom, liberty and privacy is being snuffed out by the massed forces of evil totalitarianism, sometimes blatantly, often covertly. Whatever your political hue, if you believe in freedom, liberty and getting the "government boot" off your throat then we urge you to get the conversation going with your friends, family & colleagues. It is up to us and us alone. We either learn about our freedoms and exercise our freedoms or lose them forever.
