Blog Post #5

personally, i think a lot of antiwar media is suppressed on purpose, despite having our first amendment right of freedom of speech, i think its something the government almost tries to hide from us. after reading the articles, especially the antiwar.com one, it was seriously eye opening. it feels like theres almost another world thats being hidden from us due to its "slander" type of literature. although this is protected in our first amendment rights, especially in the values, specifically the first, the market place of ideas aka discovery of truth. this is information that should, no needs to be broadcasted larger than it is at the moment. its important information we as Americans very much have the right to discuss and more importantly, at least be aware of! it makes me wonder if its being hidden for more than one reason. some questions arise for me: is there more going on? why has no one spoken about this before when theres miles of either evidence or knowledge about the situation? why is this being kept from us? 

so many things were racing in my mind when i first went on the anti war website. even the layout of the website itself looks like an expository thing as theyre placed in bold red news looking headlines that cover the page.  i dont want to get into conspiracy theory territory, but it really does make one think there has to be more going on and thats why its being kept from us.
