The Freedom Of Opinion

This reporter experienced an incident which has broutht about a great deal of concern. And that is controlling one's thoughts. Freedom of speech each day seems to be of little or no concern to those who have to deal with political policies every day. It is getting to the point that what one thinks is not important but what he is made to think is important. "I wish you discuss matters with me," a "they are telling matters with me", a "they are telling you what to print," are comments heard everyday. Everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion whether it be lop-sided or thoroughly rejected by a massive group of people. Everyone has a mind, but whether or not it is used to its greatest potential is up to the individual. People express what they feel, in every sense of the word, bot only media areas but in public forums as Gas Shortage? Maybe well. But, when something is said, and it hits home, there everyone is ready to yell murder. It is said very By Jacqueline D. Pender often, when someone is to be blamed for something, everyone has to point the finger at some else. "It's Most people seem to be talking about we have. not my fault," or "he did it."
