As an outspoken American political critic, I feel sorry for Jamal Khashoggi. If Donald Trump were a dictator like Saudi’s Krazy King, I would be a dead man by now. America, Europe, and Canada are the only few places left on earth where Free Speech and democracy exist in the world. There was a time during the World War years when calling out presidents and other politicians any name we could, would get a writer blacklisted, or anyone publicly supporting Liberal or socialistic ideologies was fired and blacklisted from the movie industry, print publishers, schools, and university faculties, and in most commercial media. It appears that anyone who is a witness against the Clintons is found suspiciously murdered. The U.S presidents and corporations have always had a fight with outspoken social and political critics, but as of today we still maintain one of the highest levels of Free Speech protected by law and First Amendment Right under our Constitution.
As an independent Blogger, radio and television personality, I have seldom found a time in the last 20 years when I wasn’t criticized, censored and taken off the airwaves by hackers and political adversaries. I have had threats but always defended myself by criticizing those threats and people that threatened me as idiots, krazies, and morons for the most of them. At this time in my life, the last thing I intend to do is concede to a Conservative Krazy or back down from a threat by an idiot a-hole.
Jamal Khashoggi made a bad decision when he entered the Saudi Consulate that fatal day, knowing his life was threatened by the Saudi King. Most journalists or political critics and activists working in the Middle East are targets for all the dictator governments who dislike what they are saying. May Jamal Khashoggi rest in peace, knowing his brutal murder and sacrifice has not been covered up by the western media, and all journalists and social and political critics can take heed and give thanks that they are still working, speaking, and are more cautious of the murderous threats by their enemies.
