Restricting Our Rights
The Left is trying to inhibit liberty in general, except regarding sexual license. Barack Hussein Obama is determined to curtail gun freedom. Obama is also pressing for his Environmental Protection Agency to have vast power to block us from using our own property as we see fit, if water ever ponds or puddles on it. Obama's EPA will call this a "navigable waterway" and institute what amounts to a "taking". Obama thinks he is clever in these attempts at overreach. I think he is a not-so-closeted Marxist. Obama is widely supported by his fellow travelers who are running our colleges and universities. These administrators have throttled liberty by instituting bans on what they call "hate speech" with campus speech codes. They use the ludicrous rationale of letting everyone "feel safe" on campus to deny the Constitutionally-protected right to say controversial things. They may permit a small "free speech zone" in an obscure place on school grounds for a student to spout dissent or hand out pamphlets in an area with little foot traffic. Students often need prior consent where what is to be said or distributed is pre-screened by what amount to administrators acting as censors to use even these "free speech zones". The college campus was central to the left rising to power in the 1960s and 1970s in the faces of what Nixon aptly called the "Silent Majority". The radicals of that era are now the authorities and are stifling the formerly Constitutionally-enshrined rights of those who disagree with them. The path Bill and Hillary Clinton used to gain power that started with campus activism is being denied to those who might rise to power by opposing Leftism.
