LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Remember those amendments | Letters To The Editor | thecentralvirginian.com – The Central Virginian

We honor our veterans, as we remember why they were willing to risk their lives for our freedoms. Lets reference some of those freedoms from specific amendments in our Constitution:

The First Amendment protects our religions, freedom of speech and the press, and the right to peacefully assemble and address grievances. The Fourth Amendment protects Americans against unreasonable searches and seizures. Our Fifth Amendment states no person shall be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.

Therefore, we raise a crucial and fundamental question about maintaining those freedoms. How can the party of progressive socialist Democrats honor our amendments, as they fully endorse governmental control over individual constitutional freedoms? Additionally, their biased progressive media previously informed us our Constitution is outdated and not valid. Really! American politicians are sworn into office to protect our Constitution, although progressives have conveniently forgotten that our government derives its power only from the consent of the people.

But where was our constitutional protection in Loudoun County schools, when parents spoke up against cruel indoctrination of their children and strongly opposed school books containing pornography? Those parents were immediately silenced by progressive socialist school officials and their media! Include the further weaponization from top progressive government officials, as they declared American parents to be domestic terrorists! What about the arrested father, who protested the school rape of his fifth-grade daughter, which was deliberately hidden by progressive administrators!

Parents from all parties are not afraid of repercussions for refusing to remain silent; if that were not true, we would no longer live in a free country. Such progressive politicians brag about their so-called free stuff, but what have they personally accomplished to secure your freedoms? Will the cost of losing our Constitutional liberties be worth their free stuff? After the Loudoun County debacle, many are now aware that those progressive attacks against parental rights bear no resemblance to the former John F. Kennedy moderate Democratic Party.

It was Benjamin Franklin who said, Freedom is not a gift bestowed upon us by other men, but a right that belongs to us by the laws of God and nature. Consequently, based upon a brave unprecedented human experiment, our Constitution was created for this juvenile nation, by courageous but imperfect Founding Fathers, and humbly provided to us. It allowed extraordinary new freedoms for Americans, while maintaining the rule of law. But it was up to European aristocrats, indentured servants and slaves to understand and institute those Constitutional liberties. Generations of Americans gave of their blood and flesh for their freedoms.

Conversely, why would any current politician, media, or school administrator, ignore or blatantly violate the unparalleled efforts of historical Americans for Constitutional sovereignty? Current Virginians of all parties and races have proven they still have the fortitude to protect such freedoms with their votes, as they loudly rejected the bullying and unlawful Constitutional intrusions of progressive school board members, government officials and media into the education, and liberties of their families. Hopefully our country is listening.
