So many are quick to point out their 1st Amendment but I wonder how many have actually ever read it? The freedom of speech is pointed out most often. The freedom of speech, I wonder why it seems to be limited to only a chosen few? I mean surely those that put the programs we watch every day on TV have freedom of speech or those that make the cartoons our children sit watch for hours on end. How about the newspapers, books, magazines? Do they have this right as well? Well of course they do in this country the good ole USA. So since it seems so popular this day and time to use words such as Mother-fu**er, Fu**, and so many more why aren’t the cartoonist editing them into the cartoons? I mean, after all, we do want our children to grow up and know their rights, right? I wonder why when we are in a court of law and the judge asks a question that you don’t hear or understand, we can’t just ask him “excuse me, but what the fu** did you just say?” Surely they know about our rights in a court of law? Don’t they? I wonder why some parents punish their children for saying these words? I mean if they are just a common portion of our language and we have the freedom of speech on our side, couldn’t parents get in some kind of trouble for that? Some may Google the 1st Amendment now so that they better understand that freedom of speech right they have. While you have Google pulled up why don’t you look up a few other things while you’re at it. You already know you have the freedom of speech, there is no real reason to look that up. Try looking up etiquette, try looking up morality, try looking up respect, try looking up integrity. These are all words that you should lookup. Because if you believe your freedom of speech is there so that you can say, post, or blurt out offensive words anywhere, any time, any place that you want to, it is etiquette, morals, respect, and integrity that you don’t have, nor do you understand the meaning of them, not the freedom of speech.
