The Pamphleteer |
|
|
During colonial times in America, if you wanted to convince or inform people about some issue that you considered important, you went to the local printer and got some pamphlets printed. You then handed them out, read them to anybody that was interested, nailed them to the town bulletin board, or the nearest tree.
The first amendment was specifically written to protect this type of activity and the writers or "pamphleteers".

Free Alaa (Thanks to Little Green Footballs.) An Egyptian blooger has been jailed, the blogosphere must do something, click here. Sign the petition here. Why should we do this? All that comes to mind is a this, which is attributed to a post war German president, speaking about the Nazis: "When they came for the Jews, I didn't speak, for I was not a Jew. When they came for the trade unionists, I didn't speak, for I was not a trade unionist. When they came for the communists, I didn't speak, for I was not a communist. When they came for the Christians, I didn't apeak for I was not a Christian. When they came for me, there was no one left to speak." The Islamo-Fascists are the new Nazis. We ignore them at our peril. . |
