I just read an article out of the San Diego Union that was poignant, truthful, and enlightening. Without going into great detail, the piece touched on the art of debate and discussion. It also eluded to the fact that it is not only a right, but indeed a responsibility to express one?s opinion!
It further went on to discuss how many (if not most) people shirk or refrain from saying what is on their minds for fear, in my opinion, of offending the powerful. But the most moving part of the whole piece was, again in my opinion, the title itself. Seven little words that truly said it all -
?IN A DEMOCRACY, SILENCE IS NOT GOLDEN!?
VERITAS
