Are We as Americans, motivated by Freedom?

So very true, yes it is. But there has to be light at the end of the tunnel! We are a great nation, and we are a good people...I just want to educate as many people as I can... and also people that might need my help! Because they are out there, waiting to go to court, or have a loved one in the system. I feel like the more people who know about this the better our chances. I know it can be boring, but educate yourself on the issues on the voting ballot, then take the step and vote, make a difference. You don't have to agree with me, but your voice should be heard. We have to change our justice system, we have too. California will end up wdioth everyone in prison over stupid dumb stuff. They might as well put razor wirer around the whole state... Lets make our law makers responsible, with responsialbe legislation, and that they are also honest. Let the laws be the same for everyone, and california, lets let people have that trial if that is what they want, without the added time. Get the D.A. out of the public defenders by letting another agency be responsialbe for them,an attorney can't represent a client if he has worked for one of the other parties in a case....The d.a. can't proscute and defend someone in the same case. Also lets get away from the lenghty sentences. they are foolish and have nothing to do with rehabilitation. And lets keep the police straight too, by questioning the work that they do we help improve the process, keep it honest and double check there work as well. thenm pick out a resonable amount of time for a crime and stick to it. The same for everyone. thank you The box2

Ah my friend, you get to the bone of the matter, yes I have been through the system. I have nothing to hide and I try to use my experience to help others.I also try to work from this side of the bars to help those who have no help at all. However that is for another day, yes you are one-hundred percent right I am on the same page,. But understand, some people do know better and are just as concerned as we both are. The right to bare arms was very importasnt to the people who first came to this country. They were fleein g religious perecution, and basicaly lossing everything they owned do to laws that were unjust and unfair. Thats why the consitution mentions that you can not take a mans lands , his money and then put him in jail....also the right to bare arms was there to keep this land free, so that if an unjust government were to happen we, the people would be able to take our country back. I have a blog that I wrote on this subject it is called the sins of another....the sins sof one generation are passed down to the next. I feel that people are tired of all the ballyhoo over politics, because you can't trust any of them. It can't all be about the numbers! Just as we, as parents had to make some decistion that were not popular with our kids, so do the leaders of this nation need top make some rules that will help, like get rid of inflation, stop printing money we don't have the gold to back up. However it is important to look at the good we3 do have. I think there are a lot of bright educated kids out there waiting for a chance , and I see that alot of good could be accomplished with the right leadership. I do love this country, its were I'm from, and she may have problems but I believe in her people. So jonakyl you just keep spreading your message, keep that Consitution right up in front of everyone and have faith your being heard.Educate them , tell them why, your one voice that should and can be heard!

It isn't so hard if you can pay attention, friend. I see you are a caring person, so am I. But I think most people would care, they just don't know how much we need them. I agree about the media freency on one tv station I can think of. That poor lady, she wants so bad to be judge and jury little does she know...right. She slaps freedom in the face because she takes away that one very special thing, to be judged by an unbiased jury, a jury of the defendants peers. I feel that if a person keeps up on current affairs they should be able to see more. Never should we go blindly into justice. And we should not sit and look the other way now. We all have reps in congress and the senitors from our states, thats where your voice can be heard. If they don't lisen, then vote for someone else. You can make a difference that is why it is so important to vote. don't you agree? Oh and to the news lady who wants the biggest rates, God does not like ugle thanks the box2

I do agree. Most people do turn the other way. I remember when I went to vote I was one of three younger people there. Not enough people do vote, and it's sad. We have a choice, and I'd argue an obligation, and to not take it would be crazy in my opinion. My husband and I used to hold protests up at the college I used to go to. Most of the time we'd pass out copies of the Constitution and hold up signs about current news events that had to do with our freedoms beginning to vanish. We'd get more and more people angry with us rather than asking for more information or understanding that certain things violated freedoms. It really is quite sad.
