Freedom of speech - use it or lose it When they took away the 4th Amendment, we were quiet, because we didn't deal drugs. When they took away the 6th Amendment, we were quiet, because we were innocent. When they took away the 2nd Amendment, we were quiet, because we don't own guns. Now they have taking away the 1st Amendment, and very soon, if we continue to be quiet, we will have no choice, but to be continue to be quiet.
