Regarding letters from Dick Biggs, Gary B. Hulsey, and Clint Hawkins: I don't believe America exists in a fixed conservative condition under which we can either "love it or leave it." As a democratic republic, our country will become whatever a majority of its citizens want it to become, limited only by our Constitution.Clint Hawkins said "dissent and freedom of speech are privileges." Nope, freedom of speech is a right. Hulsey and Biggs suggest Democrats are leading this country to communism.
