Find the Cost of Freedom


So a curfew has been enacted in the City of Lynn... to go along with mask requirements in Salem, and Social Distance Monitors in Marblehead. It's just a little inconvenience to counter the threat of this Flu Outbreak... Right??? Wrong! History has shown us that when we allow others to restrict our basic rights, and let others make common sense decisions for us..... we head down a dangerous slippery slope that our forebears gave their lives to avoid for us. In a not so distant past, small measures of social control have escalated to Fascist oppression on this exact path. Ben saw it... and our grandparents saw it... We must not be cavalier to a dangerous precedent. Just Look how fast the "Advisories" have escalated to "Required Restrictions".
"Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." `~ Benjamin Franklin. #RANTOVER
