Re:  Hear Hear !!!

Cheeseburger.... this has nothing to do with Paul Harvey (who by the way
I can't stand) he just happens to be the one to point this out.....
Everyone in our country is entitled to "freedom of speech".... T-H-A-T
is the point.

Ok, you lost me.  I assumed since it said "Paul Harvey Says..." that he 
wrote it, believes it etc, that it had something to do with him, besides 
anyone else who believes that.  Ok, but if you're saying no it doesn't, 
it's just the message that he is "pointing out", then I will have to 
continue to miss where the actual point of it all is "freedom of speech" 
rather than "We Pray When And Where We Want To Or You Hit The Highway".

I can see how one might mistake such a thing as religious (or otherwise) 
public audible domination for freedom of speech, but I always thought that 
only happened in the comic books and not in real life.

Freedom of speech is great, I'll agree with that, I still find it hard to 
accept a single religion's prayers at the beginning of sporting and/or 
other events for the most part when America whether it likes it or not 
remains a melting pot of the entire world in addition to being its last 
dreadful hope.

If people can pray publicly, over loud speakers etc, at such events and 
events and etc's, then I should have equal time to get up with my ibanez, a 
few foot pedals, and amps, and wail out some Jimi Hendrix, each and every 
time I wanted at any event anywhere, also.

But I'm not allowed to do that either.

Concensus never did equal equality in my book.  Nor consistently indicate 
true wise justice.

But of course it's not my book they want to read from.

You'll most likely never hear anything read from any book about Buddha, 
Mohammed, Allah, Krishna, you name the "God", being read before sporting 
events etc in America, for the most part.

Is there a lawyer in the house..?  While I am suing to get America back, I 
might as well sue to have all the other "Gods'" words read before sporting 
events in the United States as well.

If Jesus etc can publicly spout stuff before they blow the opening whistle, 
gun, or briefcase, then someone from Hendrix, Zeus, Hera, Apollo, Allah, 
the Great Spirit, the jungle tree God whatever etc should be afforded equal 
freedom of speech and prime time involvement in society's enlightenment as 
well instead of remaining to be always put 2nd horse to the opportunities 
afforded those who continue to profess they exist in so much less of the 
darkness.

The church chimes in my little town go over the entire place about 3 times 
a day, every day, every week, morning noon and 5 pm.  If I got on my roof 
and just turned my amp volume to 1 and played The Star Spangled Banner by 
Jimi Hendrix or something at 5 pm just once, the cops would come and arrest 
me.  Ok, nevermind, I forgot, they're The Church.  They have Jesus on their 
side.

All I have on my side is Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, and a few other 
hundred billion souls staring through the window and laughing our asses off 
as we listen to the bells.

Rock on, America.

Freedom of speech.  LOL...  Yeah, it's a great thing...

Just show me where to plug my amp in at and I'll be fine.  I love hotdogs.

- "Ok, here we go, 2 with mustard, 1 with sauerkraut, and one just because 
Jesus is the only real one among all those heathen fakers.  1 Billion 
Christians out of a world population of 6 Billion could never be 
wrong.  Uhh, sorry there, mister, all non-Christians in the line to the 
left please..."

"Hot dogs..!!  Hot dogs..!!  Get yer tuttsi fruitsy ice a cream..! (Marx 
Bros.), Ice cold Jesus on a stick right here..!!"

"Play ball...!!!!"


When I was in junior high or something I was at a high school football game 
in my little town here and they were playing and someone got hurt and died 
on the field, I think they said a prayer then also if I remember correctly, 
then they went on with the game.

It was strange.
