I'm just an old dinosaur!

There is one thing I know for sure: I'm a former journalist that would be referred to in this day and time as a dinosaur. I'm old school. I believe in the First Amendment to the Consitution, also known as the Bill of Rights, but don't think it should be used to excuse bad behavior.

Everyone has their right to their opinion of the First Amendment. Mine (in a nutshell) is that as long as I'm not defaming, using obscenity or hurting anyone then I'm entitled to express my feelings.

A few days ago, I was asked to delete a post I'd made to a friend's post on FB. That post wasn't ugly in anyway; just my sarcastic wit. This request was passed through two other people, and when I found out he put friends in the middle of his high school and immature ways, it really pissed me off. If he felt that strongly about have it he should have asked me himself, but that would be the adult way.

I did take the post off and unfriended that person. In the future, I'm going to only post to people who don't take life, or themselves, so seriously.

I am who I am and have the "right" to express myself. Now, my page will remain a place where a person can say what they feel as long as no one is defamed or hurt. No one has to agree with how I feel, but my page will be respected for what it is ... a place to be yourself and listen to the opinions of an old dinosaur.
