Quote by Benjamin Carson
Heres a nation, one of the founding pillars was freedom of speech

Heres a nation, one of the founding pillars was freedom of speech and freedom of expression. And yet, we have imposed upon people restrictions on what they can say, on what they can think. And the media is the largest proponent of this, crucifying people who say things really quite innocently. – Benjamin Carson
