It kind of made me angry while reading it. I have not been following the Tea Party movement too much, but I had a feeling that they were up to no good.

I get so lost and frustrated sometimes. I value different opinions and point of view, but when it comes to some issue I just want to scream “WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE.”

Not everyone is going to think like me - I understand that. But there is a fine line between freedom of speech, and complete oppression, hatred, racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. A very fine line - and it is being crossed every single day.

Thank you for reading! Share your thoughts with me on bluesky, mastodon, or via email.
