Democracy was a millimeter away from ending.
Freedom of Speech?
Whether you like Don John or not, if he (or the bullet) was a millimeter over our nation would be totally dysfunctional for the next two generations, if not in a civil war.
With the immense power of twisted rumors and complex conspiracies that manage to survive, no matter what, our nation would explode with hate and negativity beyond imagination. President Trump getting his head blown off would only reinforce the ignorance that comes with speech. Remember the saying "Sticks and Stones will break my bones but words can never hurt me."
Evidentially that is not true.
Why else would a kid be willing to give up his life to kill someone he does not even know. Plus if 20 year olds were surveyed about blowing up their car you would get a clear, Never.
Maybe their step-fathers car but not theirs.
Words can hurt. Words can destroy. Words are the most powerful tool known to man,
But without protecting the right to speak, we would have only one voice to listen to and everyone can understand that pit.
Freedom of Speech either exists for all of us or none of us.
That right is way beyond the cornerstone of freedom.
Go think. It might be contagious.
