As to myself, if you as an American Citizen entitled to the constitutional protections which I swore to uphold when I was commissioned, want to exercise your rights of freedom of expression, so be it - with the understanding that I reserve the right to express myself as well.

Perhaps someone would be kind enough to show me the relevance of Blackwatch's comments regarding my thoughts which he apparently believes attempt to restrict or deny his rights, and what I actually said. I believe my words are clear. I believe that any citizen is entitled to his constitutional rights and that any citizen is free to exercise these rights. If I disagree with an incidental position on a given subject then I have the right to express my disagreement.
Librasoul22, Did I miss something in this thread? You refer to "freedoms that we are allowed", since freedom under our constitution and form of government (which since it is a human organization cannot, by definition, be perfect but seems to me to be in intent and in attempt a lot more respectful of its citizens and their rights than other forms of which I am aware) is a right and not a privelege, who then is doing the allowing?
