In America, we are given the freedom of speech. This can be considered a horrible crime in many other countries, and we are lucky to have this freedom here. As a result, many opinions are expressed all of the time. Some of these opinions are put in print for the world to see. In the city, there are always signs, banners, and posters posted everywhere. Today, I saw a banner pulled by an airplane advertising hot air balloon rides.
For more outgoing advocates of free speech, a news paper or article is printed for that organization's cause. Several of these are put on by members of the school. They can involve political cartoons, articles about employment, or announcements of upcoming events. Some publications, however, may be completely different. I was given an article yesterday supported by the Marxist organization of America. The symbol of the hammer and sickle were displayed in the upper right corner. They were being passed out in the middle of campus by a 70 year old woman in a wheel chair. The article insulted the president while at the same time demanding him to end aid to Israel and support Palestine. I'll let you form your own opinion on that instead of adding my own.
This blog is my particular expression of free speech. Thank you very much to all of you who actually take the time out of your day to read this. It is greatly appreciated. I don't know why you find this interesting, but thanks for always reading.
