 I am a free speech activist.

I enjoy sharing the love of free expression including the right to hate.

Hate is not illegal, nor should it be.

Hate speech laws have historically been used to serve the government (dictators) more than the citizens (the people).

If you want progress (and it isn't coming fast enough), consider what values our leaders should have.

Petition, speak out.

Make your voice heard.

Only when we voice our concerns are they ever addressed.

Personally, I don't want to see any one party with too much power.

I am anti-establishment, but also, non-traditional in the two party system.

I think both parties are mostly, if not always, corrupt and self-seeking.

I don't want to see a 4/5 majority of any one party.

With great power comes great responsibility, and the politicians are too corrupt to wield that kind of power.
