America today, pressured by political correctness and social acceptances, has been reduced to become a country where we are more concerned about hurting people’s feelings or protecting our reputations. This mindset has caused America, the country where we used to be able to say what we want-- when we want-- how we want, to become a country overrun by what would sound better than what would be more effective. Our own government has trampled our rights as citizens under free speech, the right to bear arms, and the freedom of religion. We are becoming a society where one thing is absolutely right and anyone who thinks different is condemned a homophobe, racist, extremist, or terrorist. Our Reconstructionist officials (liberals/government activists)

When Americans first came to the new world they came with religious purpose. Now, whether or not each person today in the United States wishes to acknowledge that fact is up to oneself. Freedom of religion has come to mean something different in these past few years: instead of tolerance, we have become anti associated. Instead of allowing religion to exist in America we are now all together anti-religion. It is now offensive is someone prays during lunch but its not when the atheist refuses to respect the student participating in chapel. Being a “religious” person is now associated with extremism, exception, forcefulness, and rudeness. Freedom of Religion does not only apply to Christians, but to Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and many more. We are a nation of many backgrounds and ethnicities and we do not hide that. We rejoice in it, and every religion is to have an equal chance in America, as the first amendment gives them this right. However, liberals and the government have allowed the teachings of freedom from religion to take the place of freedom of religion. Though they have the same words, the switch in prepositions changes everything. Freedom from religion says there is no tolerance for different beliefs. Freedom of religion says you may believe what you wish to …show more content…
The man with the gun or the man with the baseball bat? It’s no coincidence the second most important amendment is that which allows the right to bare arms. We as people have the right to protect ourselves in the event that something threatens our lives. However, under gun control this generation has turned the victim into the criminal, and the criminal into the victim. Under liberal, gun-control logic, guns are the problem, not people. Well, we can make the same case about cars. A car is a two-ton killing machine capable of killing if you, if not paralyzing you—very similar injuries caused by a gun. But, we stull use cars. Why? Is it not the machine that is killing the being? Yes, but unlike certain people, others have learned to drive the car. This is the same thing with a gun. Guns do not fire on their own. They do not kill on their own. It is the mind behind the gun that causes the crime. So, constitutionalists say do not punish the majority for a minority’s misuse. As to gun control, since when has a criminal obeyed a law? By limiting the good people’s rights to arm themselves, the government has doubled if not tripled their possibility for death. Again, do not punish the majority for a minority’s
