Justice, Peace, Love: The people need access to a free press

"A few weeks ago, there was a controversial local hot-button issue posted in a social media group with a link to a news article."

"Young people will say `My government hates me,’ ‘My school hates me,’ `They don’t want me to exist.'"

"If the law were merely to ensure equal punishment for a crime, it would be an eye for an eye, leading to a society in which everyone is blind."

"The more I read, the more I realize that Dr. King understood the evils of the world and what needed to be done to overcome them."

“Ah, but there is a choice in how to respond. There is always a choice when it comes to violence.”

“The idea of staying awake in the face of oppression has been around for at least a hundred years.”

“The freedom to report on the government and its leaders without censorship is a fundamental principle of a functioning democracy.”

"We are the government. We have the power. Let’s organize and use it."

“Why did it take an FBI investigation to uncover this? How many other police departments have a similar culture?”

“Imagine...all decisions for the common good are made through simple democracy — one person, one vote.”
