Commentary on political leadership and responibil­ity to the American voter

-

As I’ve said before....Wake up America! “Political Correctnes­s” is going to be the ruination of this once great country. In my almost eight decades I’ve lived outside the United States. I’ve traveled to many foreign countries.

I’ve seen the reasons why this is the greatest country on earth.

It is time our leaders, starting at the very top, the President of the United States, all Cabinet Members, every appointed bureaucrat, every career staffer, every Senator, Congressma­n, or Congresswo­man, every Governor, Mayor or Council person, every Commission­er or any other elected office holders, including heads of all law enforcemen­t agencies step up to the plate and say this:

“We as your elected and appointed leaders respect the rights afforded you under the first amendment to peacefully assemble and free speech, including protest marchers, government haters and candidate haters. However, if YOU break any law, local, state or national, or violate any local ordinance, or fail to obey a lawful order issued by any law enforcemen­t agency, you are going to jail, no questions asked, zero tolerance.

We will fight to our death to protect your rights under the first amendment, but, break the law, YOU will be punished, with no exceptions.

-Ken Suffridge, former mayor of the City of Aragon
