b"Press Wants Freedom of Speech as Long as It Fits Their Agenda
\\nOne of the few rights left to us in this country is the freedom of speech. \\xa0If we don't defend speech that we find offensive, someone else will find your speech offensive and move to silence you. \\xa0Political correctness, is evolving into the Thought Police via the mainstream media. In particular, President Trump's reaction to the events in Charlottesville is being portrayed as a defense of White Nationalists over Black Lives Matter. Nothing is President Trump's remarks supports this story. \\xa0President Trump, in the lobby of Trump Tower, was subjected to an inquisition by the Press, who intended to entrap the President and further their agenda to mischaracterize him and anyone who supports him.
\\nDisrespecting Donald Trump and the Office of the President
\\nI know very few members of the Press respect Donald Trump; this is clear. \\xa0But they need to respect the office of the Presidency. \\xa0Could you imagine members of the Press treating President Obama the way they are treating President Trump? Can you imagine the cries of racism? Of course, no member of the Press would dare show that type of disrespect to President Obama.
\\nCondemning Violence on Both Sides
\\nPresident Trump is refusing to denounce only the violence perpetrated \\xa0by the White Nationalists without also mentioning that the Black Lives Matter group, who assembled without a permit, also engaged in violence. \\xa0The Left is saying that President Trump has not denounced the White Nationalists enough. What the President said was that he was condemning the violence on both sides and that angered the left. They hold that the President should only condemn violence committed by the White Nationalists. That would be hypocritical.
\\nBackground on the Event
\\nTo give you a little background, the park, formerly named Robert E. Lee Park, was re-named Emancipation Park and the city was going to tear down the statue of Robert E. Lee that had presided over that park. So there was a local protest that the statue was coming down. \\xa0It was coming down regardless of local protests. A local group wanted to protest the fact that this was happening. This group eventually got a permit although it was initially rejected. So they engaged in a legal protest to exercise their First Amendment rights. The counter protesters, who came in from out to town did not have a permit landed first physical blow.
\\nFreedom of Speech is there for the Offensive Ideas
\\nAre the ideas that the White Nationalists offensive? \\xa0Yes. \\xa0But it doesn't matter, because that is Freedom of Speech. It is there because of the offensive statements. \\xa0See, nobody cares if you say something that makes everybody happy and doesn't offend anybody - you don't need freedom to do that. \\xa0The scenario that the left is trying to spin and the media is playing right into it is that America is afraid to go anywhere near anything that would draw the ire of the politically correct thought police. We have a very tenuous grasp on the right of freedom of speech, and there is no doubt in my mind that this right is going to go.
