If land is deemed as
"public land", and we, the people collectively and individually, are
the public, should we all not have unbridled access to "public
lands"?
I notice that while 2nd
Amendment advocates are boisterous about their rights, as they should be, not
all of them are supporting people who believe in the first Amendment, and the
right to freedom of religion. It should be a religious right to not bake a cake
for a wedding that the baker believes is wrong. It should be a religious right
to not take pictures at a wedding that a photographer may deem as being
wrong.
And it is the right of
those who are getting married to choose another bakery, another photographer,
and another caterer who is not religiously offended by the wedding. Is not this
the way that it should work?
By the way, if you have not
read the US Constitution recently, I suggest that you do so. I did this
weekend, and there was so much that I had forgotten over the years. For
instance, the President really has very little power and only a small amount of
Constitutional duties. How the Presidency became so powerful is amazing, and
very frightening.
We should be much more
engaged on who we send to Congress than we are about the one whom we elect as
President.
One thing that I really was
proud of in growing up Wallace was that the people of Wallace took liberty from
the tyranny of big government very seriously. It seems like a lot of North
Idaho people are losing that belief, and that is very, very, sad.
Happy Easter, everyone.
Have a wonderful blessed day.

CEDAR:I would suggest that it was tyranny from Big Business--In the book 'Big Trouble' by J. Anthony Lukas (a Pulitzer Prize winning author) it is clear that Big Business steered the big government boat. If you haven't read it, every single north Idaho resident should read it. It should be required reading for every high school senior.
