The Right To Speak

You guys, as bloggers and blog-readers we should stand up for this man who is being punished for merely speaking his mind, which is what we are all doing now. If we don't stand up for our right to freely speak, then we will be the next target. We are not under Taliban rule, we have a great Constitution that protects us, let's make use of it.

I am offended that Al-Tabtabaie pressed for only veiled women to be allowed to vote, no one is jailing him.


So, please take the time out to sign this.

  • I have been thinking of this quote for a while now
    First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out--
    because I was not a communist;
    Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out--
    because I was not a socialist;
    Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out--
    because I was not a trade unionist;
    Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out--
    because I was not a Jew;
    Then they came for me--
    and there was no one left to speak out for me.

    -Pastor Martin Niemöller, 1945
