Feelings

         The Bill of Rights to the Constitution guarantees us God given rights.  It does not guarantee that our feelings won’t be hurt.  Protecting people’s feelings takes away personal freedoms that are guaranteed in the Bill of Rights.

        There is no asterisk in the First Amendment that says we have freedom of speech unless it hurts someone’s feelings or they find it offensive.  The so-called hate speech is just another approach of taking away people’s freedom of speech.  Political correctness and cancel culture are just as bad. 

        Race issues have gotten totally out of control.  The Left and WOKE liberals want to take away freedom of speech and expression.   The whole cancel culture and racial awareness training is actually racist and dividing the country.   It is ridiculous to say decades old cartoons are racist.  Even Black Lives Matters has nothing to do with race. They are clearly a Marxist organization.

        I have to laugh when I see entitled individuals like Megan Markle claiming she is a victim because of the color of her skin.  There are a lot of words to describe her, but I don’t think any of them are politically correct and none have anything to do with her skin color.  I do feel sorry for Harry. 

        Indoctrination of children in school, including our universities, is not preparing them for life.  Participation trophies do not teach kids how to succeed.  Teaching Marxism, race, and gender studies do not prepare students for life.  It only tells them they should get everything for free. 

        I find it personally offensive that CNN and MSNBC continually lie about everything and never admit to those lies or retract them.  We need freedom of the press, but should they be exempt from obvious slander?

        Everyone is equal and has the same opportunities in this great country.  Someone’s race or the color of their skin should be irrelevant.  It is disgusting when government appointments solely on race or gender and not qualifications.  There is a difference between “Equality” and “Equity”.  Proposed equity and reparations for past slavery is as racist as it gets.  When government helps farmers, but excludes any who are white it is totally racist and divides the country.

        We cannot and should not try to protect everyone’s feelings.  We need to teach people to be responsible, productive, and good citizens.  They need to make their own way in life and not take offense at everything, or look for free stuff.
