In checking out first amendment sites I came across the following: Freedom of Speech was once only for the rich and powerful. Royal governors, clergymen, and a powerful few in the early days of the colonies were the only folks allowed to speak their minds. Speaking out against things you didn’t like could land you in The BIG HOUSE!

Now, thanks to the Bill of Rights, Free Speech is a protected right for everyone.

Most people don’t realize that 200 years have passed since the First Amendment was ratified... and in those 200 years people have fought hard to make sure that when the boundaries of “free speech” evolve, the original intent of the Founding Fathers remains true...

Is there a time machine in Dearborn County such that our elected officials have traveled back in time?
