Another Step Toward Oppression

Today the Senate in my state voted to further suppress LGBT rights. They even had to close the session from the public because a church group showed up to defend our rights. If the will of the people, the press, business, and now at least some religious groups do not move you what will. Who do you truly represent? It's easy to hate when you remove the Human equation.

If my last quote from Thomas Jefferson did not move you maybe these men will.

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from opposition; for if he violates this duty he establishes a precedent that will reach himself.

- Thomas Paine

Those who deny freedom to others deserve it not for themselves.

- Abraham Lincoln

I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending to much liberty than to those attending to small a degree of it.

- Thomas Jefferson

When the founders of our nation echo through time will you listen or continue your walk toward oppression?
