Clarification?

I used to think I was a good writer, but apparently not. My last post received a lot of comments on Facebook, and many of them made me think I did not send the message I meant to send.

My main message is that there are people in the world who have declared their desire, and are actively trying to motivate others to act, to reduce the freedoms we have in the USA, and that people in other countries have, by putting into place their version of law, based on their religion.

We need to be aware, be observant, and guard our rights through the legal, peaceful means we have. This includes making our lawmakers aware of what we want, and asking them to be steadfast in protecting our constitutional rights.

No matter which group is being fanatical and trying to impose their views on me, I resist it and think it is not right. I defend their right to speak their mind and request what they want, but there are limits to the actions that follow, if it impinges on rights we have agreed to have in our society and under our chosen government.

A hallmark of our government is its ability to change. That is generally a good thing. I just don't want the Bill of Rights to be repealed. I think that is far too much a core of our society and the structure of American Government. If it is in danger, we must protect it and ourselves to continue in the vision of our founding fathers. I don't want to see those rights eroded.
