Since when is skepticism un-American?



Anybody else find this to be ever so slightly chilling? (via The Long Letter)

Please correct me if I�m wrong, but didn�t we fight a war against fascism? When did we switch to the other side? I must have been absent that day at school.

It seems to me a grave disservice to the memory of those who gave their lives in the service of the ideals of liberty and free speech for their descendants to simultaneously talk about bringing freedom to one group of people and endeavor to stifle it among themselves. Dissent is America at its best; the attempted intimidation of those who do not blindly follow the government line could not possibly be more un-American.

We have a saying in my family, which we use in situations like this: fuck that noise. Don�t let the brownshirts steal our country.
