Freedom of Speech?

Apparently, the right to Freedom has been denied for quite a while. I read this book: 'The Mystery of Iniquity', by Father Paul Kramer. It is very enlightening, especially in regards to the propaganda put out by our government; the lies and deceptions that have led us into many wars for their own initiatives, and how Our Lady is the only course of help we have. She is still waiting for the consecration of Russia to her Immaculate Heart. The Masons are not giving up on controlling the world. Lenin and Trotsky were Masons, not just communists or socialists. Anyway, back to our 'Freedom of Speech' issue.

Around 1880, John Swinton, one-time editor of the New York Times, made the following statement at a banquet given in his honor:

"There is not such thing, at this date of the world's history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it. There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone. The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly, is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."

Free press
The First Amendment gives the press the right to publish news, information and opinions without government interference. This also means people have the right to publish their own newspapers, newsletters, magazines, etc.
The Freedom Forum's First Amendment Center provides a program for newspaper editors and other staff through a partnership with the American Press Institute.
Assembly
The First Amendment says that people have the right to gather in public to march, protest, demonstrate, carry signs and otherwise express their views in a nonviolent way. It also means people can join and associate with groups and organizations without interference.
Petition
The First Amendment says that people have the right to appeal to government in favor of or against policies that affect them or that they feel strongly about. This freedom includes the right to gather signatures in support of a cause and to lobby legislative bodies for or against legislation.

Lord, help us!
