The First Amendment guarantees freedoms concerning religion, expression, assembly, and the right to petition. It forbids Congress from both promoting one religion over others and also restricting an individual’s religious practices. It guarantees freedom of expression by prohibiting Congress from restricting the press or individuals’ rights to speak freely. It also ensures the right of citizens to assemble peaceably and to petition their government.

After reviewing our first amendment rights in our beautiful Constitution of the United States of America, I can see (and I hope you can too) that our rights are being infringed upon enormously. Firstly, our First Amendment guarantees our right as individuals to speak freely. So, how can they stop us from speaking? Over the last twelve months, I’ve looked around, and I see that since mandating us to wear masks and telling us to keep our distance from one another, they control our ability to communicate with each other. They started with masks to see if we would comply. By doing this, they were hoping we would all be like cattle and mosey along and do what they told us to do. (Please do your research on the virus/masks/vaccines.) Now that they have a great many of us doing as they wish, they have also told us we must stay home for our own safety and the safety of others. Sadly most people are staying home out of fear more than anything else. By the way, now they have infringed on our rights to assemble peaceably. (This is also in our First Amendment.)

Therefore, after over a year of this seclusion, most people are beginning to realize the control they are wielding over all the people who are complying. The citizens are seeing the government continue to tell us we must do this for another year possibly. People are realizing more and more that the government does not want to let the people have their rights back. In the meantime, people are beginning to claim their rights back by going to see family and friends and saying no to wearing the masks. They are beginning to see that they may never get their rights back if they don’t do something, even if it’s a small thing like not wearing a mask. If more and more people did this, it would significantly impact regaining our freedoms.

Meanwhile, while they have had us at home unable to see our loved ones, most of us turned to go online to communicate and stay in touch with family and friends. In doing so, we have witnessed censorship take hold in a significant way by Big Tech platforms. If anyone shares anything, particularly on social media, contrary to the narrative the government or news stations are trying to sell us, our posts are being removed. When you try to voice your opinion about anything to do with what is going on in our country that has to do with CoVid, the vaccine, masks, etc. we are being silenced. Since when do they have the right to restrict what we say or share??? Who are the powers that be that want us silenced? Who controls the media? Who owns the Big Tech companies? Did you know that 6 companies control 90% of the media? (Research it.)

At every turn, they (the people holding office-the people we voted in) are trying to get rid of our First Amendment rights altogether. They attempt to squelch our voices and turn us into a nation that does what they’re told and nothing else. What do they have to gain by doing so? Are you willing to give up your God-given rights as a human being to have freedom of choice? Look at all the countries that are being “governed”. They are being persecuted, tortured, starved, experimented on, used as slave labor, and some are even being killed. Is this the America you want to live in? Does anything our government is doing at the moment sound like they are representing us and have our best interests at heart? Our leaders speak about equality and injustices while ignoring violence from Antifa & Black Lives Matter, who are destroying our cities. They refuse to prosecute them even with irrefutable proof. They promise healthcare at every turn and jobs. While telling us these things, they let hundreds of thousands of illegals into the country with illness & disease, no masks, and no quarantine mandates. However, if you want to travel, you need a vaccine passport to fly and wear a mask and quarantine. Ever wonder why it’s so important to them that “everyone” be vaccinated with a vaccine that has not been properly tested? Even though there are no mandates for the thousands being let into the country? Talk about a security crisis. Why do we need a vaccine? The CDC has reported the total deaths for 2020 as normal as any year. No huge spikes in fatalities at all. Still, believe the news?

Speaking of the news, ever watch what the news is reporting? What are they all claiming at the moment? Anytime they have an agenda to sell you, they “ALL” convey the same thing. Some report the same message word for word. You must be diligent and research all these things for yourself. DO NOT rely on the news to tell you what is true. If you do, you will remain an animal led to slaughter. There are tons of alternative news outlets online reporting on what is happening in our country that the mainstream news doesn’t or can’t say. You must see the reality set before us and make your own decisions. When you find out the truth, you must speak to your family & friends and share the information you learn. My fellow Americans, if you don’t, our freedoms as we know them will vanish. Written By: Maria Nelson
