A Land of Freedom?

This is supposed to be
A land of freedom
Where the individual
Can be true
To themselves
And follow
Their own heart
And conscience
Without fear
Of retaliation;
Then why is it
That
As part
Of a political minority
I can not speak out
And express myself
For fear
Of backlash,
Of being ridiculed,
And of being
Scorned?
I am conservative
On some things,
Liberal on others,
So I consider myself
A political moderate,
But rather than acceptance
It's rather like
Being damned
If I do
And damned
If I don't!

Well done! I agree with your poem. However, as a Christian, I will never vote for someone who agrees it is OK to kill a kid right up to the day before delivery! I also agree with Trump on most things as he is for speaking your mind and he does what he says! Freedom was wild when he was our president and I loved those days! Not so much now, especially after that crap that the demons pulled about taking over the white house when they encouraged it every single step of the way. As a result, they trapped many good people who were innocent protestors just like we had during the Viet Nam era! So now, many freedom fighters are afraid of being put in the slammer for standing up for what's right! I pray for justice to prevail in our next election. If not, we may be the Soviet Union of the West and God help America! Amen!

A lot of the issues are extreme and have little to do with the center of America. It's your right not to belong to any particular cause or party. The best thing you can do is to avoid the arguments and vote your conscience. Anyone who votes a straight ticket is an idiot. We need to encourage good people to run for office and not just those that will milk either side for the money.

Another God damned independent,

Ron
