December 7th, 1941. 75 years ago the US was attacked at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, it was our invite into World War 2. During that war countless Americans gave their lives in support of freedom and the so called American way of life. Freedom of speech, freedom of and from religious worship, and freedom of the press.
I wonder what many of those soldiers would think of America today. Free speech is threatened everyday. Our elected officials actually want to create lists of those who worship differently. And our President Elect threatens retaliation against the press who dare criticize him. The very things our soldiers fought and died for are becoming the way of life now.
Is this Germany 1941 or America 2016?
