Friends, Humans, Countrymen, lend me your ears
Sorry if this is against the rules or if you
don’t want to hear it, but I need to say it. Watching “The Daily
Show”, I heard Jon Stewart mention how a man was arrested in a mall in Albany for wearing a “Give Peace
A Chance” t-shirt that he bought IN THE
MALL. I did some digging, and I found this
story from the Albany Times Union. A simple t-shirt folks. Why are we so uptight? September
10th, 2001, this man would not have been arrested. People would have thought “He must be a
Beatles fan.” I passed by the walkout in front of Old Main on my way to class, and
thought about stopping and joining in.
But I went to class since there was a project due at midnight and my group had
questions. Now I wish I had joined
in. I’m not going to tell anyone
what to think about the war or who they should vote for in 2004, but I wantto
say that I think there’s nothing wrong with someone wearing a shirt that
says “Give Peace A Chance”.
The freedom to wear such a shirt is what supposedly separates us from
the Iraqis and the North Koreans and whoever else we’re not supposed to
like. It’s called freedom of
speech. It’s guaranteed bythe
first amendment. Look it up. Now you have a choice. You can send this on to others, or not. It’s up to you. I don’t care. Thanks for taking the time to read this
though. That’s mighty coolof you.
