It’s frightening how malleable human beings can be under the power of propaganda and brainwashing.

Which leads me to conclude that, by far, the first amendment and specifically free speech and a free press is our most important freedom.

Not me. (Not that I am an abused wife, but no way would I stay with someone to mourn for someone who abused me)
