What ever happened to Freedom of Speech?

Please, this goes out to Del..., Zandor, and all the other mods (too stoned to remember now... sorry )

Dont tell me the American government have turned you into cowards aswell, respecting the laws THEY make and not respecting the FIRST AMENDMENT.

Bill of Rights

Amendment I


Congress shall make no law respecting an (1) establishment of religion, or prohibiting the (2) free exercise thereof; or abridging the (3) freedom of speech, or of (4) the press; or the right of the people (5) peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a (6) redress of grievances.

1. What about Rastafari that live in America? For some, its part of their religion to smoke Herb, yet the government oppresses them. Oh, and I know its not exactly 'religion' as such, but ever notice at the airport they do them "random" screenings? Oh, and they always pick the Arabs/Muslims out 90% of the time. The other 10%, its a stoner.
2. Look, Im not trying to defend them here, but Satanism is considered a religion. And people try to stop the free exercise of Satanic rituals.
Myself, Im a Christian. Hey, Im just trying to be fair, OK?
3. Look around you. Its happening everyday. Do I really need to give examples?
4. If you read the 9/11 conspiracies (not saying I believe either way. Im trying to be neutral here, like Sweden. Im just giving examples) theres reports saying that the CIA/FBI/WTF/O'RLY etc, actually stopped the press from printing a lot of stories about 9/11. Dont you think that the newspapers would have an article from it?
5. I remember when that woman was protesting the war in Iraq by sleeping outside the White House with a big banner or something. From what I recall, I think she got moved on within a week by some government dudes.
6. I have no idea what 'redress' means.
Please tell me there was a legitimate reason for closing that thread, not just government bullying. I would have lost all respect for this site if you had.
