American First Amendment defenders turn eyes toward Orwellian ‘police-state’ in Australia
For most American citizens, the battle for free speech, assembly, worship, and all the protections afforded citizens in the First Amendment to the US constitution is the most important battle they will ever undertake. The right of the people to express themselves free of government restrictions—particularly when it’s the government upon which they are speaking—played a central role in the founding of this nation, and must play a similar role in its survival.

Software, cryptocurrency companies among latest to limit ‘woke’ speech that limits productivity
Mesa, AZ – When Basecamp CEO Jason Fried announced to his company’s 60 employees on April 26 that political speech and debate would no longer be permitted on the company’s internal work communications system, he rightly expected some blowback. Modern technology companies are liberally staffed with progressive-minded millennials who have grown up believing in their inherent right to have their opinions recognized and respected, and Fried’s project management software company was no different. What he may not have expected, however, was a mass exodus of disillusioned employees who didn’t know how to process the fact that someone didn’t want to hear every political thought they had to say.

Assault On Bill of Rights Petition
The true meaning of the immortal words of Benjamin Franklin regarding liberty and security has been debated since he put quill to paper in 1775.
“Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety,” the founding father wrote, “deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
While historians and scholars have rarely come to agreement as to whether Franklin was referring to the actual suspension of civil liberties in the interest of protecting against potential invasions, or simply to taxes levied in order to fund defense against French and Indian attacks, the quote has taken on a universally accepted meaning in modern times: Our Constitutional rights must never be surrendered in the interest of protecting against threats, real or imagined.
