All voices deserve to be heard
I read in this paper where a doctor in Starkville was brought to light about his tweets pertaining to the Capitol riots. I am proud to be an American but ashamed of life as it is now in this United States. Our days of what freedom we have seems to be slowly taken away from us. So now, it is wrong if you don’t agree with the majority or politically correct and just say what you feel?
It is against the law to speak up if you think the majority is wrong? What about our rights as legal American citizens? Is this not some form of communism? I respect other people’s views, but I may not agree with them. I am glad people stand up for our rights. We all should. We should not let the government — Republicans or Democrats — tell us how to think, feel or react. I expect millions will disagree with me, but all opinions matter. My voice should be heard along with trillions of others. In the end, God still has the final say. But I am a legal citizen of this United States and all voices should be heard. Is Hitler our leader now?
