Once again, not the change I hoped for. I do not know if any of those responsible for the censoring of the local PEG channel ever bothered to put on a uniform and defend our Constitution or ever paid more than lip service to the same, but to this citizen who did, that assault on the First Amendment hit me like a sucker punch to the solar plexus. Freedom of speech is not always pretty, but it”s always pretty important. Whatever happened to “I do not agree with what he says, but I”ll defend his right to say it”? Public officials everywhere: Has your oath to defend the Constitution gone the way of wedding vows? I hope that someone has the resources to pursue this in court. Are you smarter than a fifth-grader? Thomas Paine, Patrick Henry, they”re weeping from their grave. Do you know who they were?
