I read this earlier and it seemed to speak to the moment:
“The cause of America is in a great measure the cause of all mankind. Many circumstances have, and will arise, which are not local, but universal, and through which the principles of all lovers of mankind are affected, and in the event of which, their affections are interested. The laying of a country desolate with fire and sword, declaring war against the natural rights of all mankind, and the extirpating the defenders thereof from the face of the earth, is the concern of every man to whom nature hath given the power of feeling; of which class, regardless of party censure, is the author.”
—Thomas Paine, Common Sense
Let us stand up and take notice, let us stand up and say no. Call your congressmen, call your senator, call the white house comment line and tell them that the United States cannot stand by and watch people be punished for exercising their God given right to speak their mind. If not now, when? If not this, then what else? If this is not worth fighting for, then what is?
White House Comment Line: 202-456-1111
