a comment on blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/findingclarity/
the original author's quote first:
"OK, I admit, this kind of pisses me off.
"As a City Council member, she has a responsibility to ensure that access to the public is maintained for all, not just for the ones she likes.
"Consider that her comments above are a direct challenge to the 1st Amendment, both for the right to free speech and for the right to Petition the Government for the redress of Grievances. In her zeal she would sacrifice the reality of the freedoms she so forcefully claims to advocate."
Dear sir, you also have to admit that as a public official, i.e. leader, one has a greater moral obligation. As hyperbole, one would not welcome with open-arms neo-Nazis to the public forum--one thinks of the words reluctance and acceptance in this circumstance; perhaps her fault is lack of transparency for acting out of moral obligation. If a circumstance is occurring which one deems harmful to human nature, to the human personality, it is one's moral obligation to stand against it. That IS the constitution's basis--justice--unfortunately it has been distilled into a series of sometimes fair, sometimes unfair, and often power-stealing Supreme Court rulings.
Or put more eloquently, Dr. Martin Luther King writing of the student movement in his time, "...there are two types of laws. There are just laws and there are unjust laws. And they (the students) would be the first to say that men and women have a moral obligation to obey just and right laws. And they would go on to say that we must see that there are unjust laws. Now the question comes into being, what is the difference, and who determines the difference, what is the difference between a just and an unjust law?
"Well, a just law is a law that squares with a moral law. It is a law that squares with that which is right, so that any law that uplifts human personality is a just law. Whereas that law which is out of harmony with the moral is a law which does not square with the moral law of the universe. It does not square with the law of God, so for that reason it is unjust and any law that degrades the human personality is an unjust law."
One can learn a lot by reading our greatest thinkers' writings.
p.s. Dear sir, your blog will not let me comment. I do not know why. I am given this error:
! Error: It appears you have used profanity or other objectionable language in your comment.
