We have lost something special in America -- our open freedom of thought and speech, to express our ideas and feelings. Our Constitution guarantees freedom of speech and that is a wonderful thing.

Anne H. Buettner

Resident

Yes it worries me to think that our freedom is being threatened, possibly our greatest freedom. It's being picked apart. people are looking for any and all reasons to sue. In the meantime, we are gradually losing one of our dearest freedoms.

Lisa Cummings

Cocktail Waitress

It does not worry me that society has begun to want to be politically correct for fear of being sued. I believe that society should have never lost the essentials of life in respecting mankind.

Virginia Z. Montino

Even though some courts seem to accept trivial cases, I believe the average American still speaks out for his political and religious beliefs, and appreciates sound business ethics.
