What is Freedom of Speech?

What is freedom of speech?

Mr. Liu was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, but the problem is that he is serving eleven years in prison for speaking up against his government. Mr. Liu is a resident of china, and because he wrote a piece calling for a change in Chinas authoritarian system, he has been condemned to eleven years in prison. Mr. Liu’s wife, wanted to go to Oslo to pick up the prize for her husband, but she has been under house arrest. A U.S. diplomat has become concerned because they have not heard from her for several weeks. The Chinese government has cut off her phone and internet access (Read the Article Here), wsj 11-19-2010, A10.

The Chinese government has full power to review your e-mail, spy on you and place you under arrest for speaking out against the government. Why, am I bringing this up, you might ask. This is China, not America. The problem is that the movement is here, and has been here for some time now to prevent freedom of speech in America. The U.S. government, in one form or another has been trying to control the press, the air waves and even the internet.

Most recently, Sen. Jay Rockefeller has made it clear, that he believes the FCC should have full control over the content of the air waves (Read). He believes that the FCC should be able to determine what the cable and satellite providers can and cannot show or offer to their subscribers.




If you watch the video, it is clear that the U.S. Government is testing the waters to see how the public will react.

In a previous article titled Communication Take over by the Government, I called upon the American citizens to be watchful of China, and of the U.S. Government. I once again appeal to the American Citizen to listen to what the elected officials are telling us, to pay attention to their writings and their interviews. The elected officials are no longer hiding what they truly believe in, they are speaking their minds, and they are voicing what they truly want, and how they truly want to shape the new America.

Long live the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Federalist Papers and the Declaration of Independence.
Lets end this United Socialist Republic of America
