Question to Pseudo-intellectual Saudi Women : Is driving car or bicycle a Right or Privilege ?

Question to Pseudo-intellectual Saudi Women : Is driving car or bicycle a Right or Privilege ?

Earlier I discussed about Saudi pseudo-intellectuals not knowing what they are actually seeking for. Their main purpose is to provoke, mislead, confuse, and out to maximize mischief in hate against the society. They should be labelled as mischief mongers who interpret concepts in a way that allows them to use their half baked dubious knowledge as a weapon in social scenarios. They'll use the misinterpretation of facts to appear objective and correct, and thus unaccountable, when "talking shit" on another person. The pseudo-intellectual will challenge opinions or views as a way of making a personal attack. They then usually assume an imagined victory and will feel that the one they've attacked has been "put in their place". Pseudo-intellectuals are very catty and have a strong desire to socially dominate others. Pseudo-intellectuals are quick to judge others and are usually very sure of their superiority based on their ability to use knowledge as social ammo. They'll use any means available to prove themselves "correct" and tend to believe that being correct gives them a blank check for any social pursuits, including ones that are undertaken purely for self gratification. Given their usual motivation to either impress or dominate their peers, the Pseudo-intellectual is completely uninterested in any knowledge that they can't use in this capacity.

It so happened that I came across few blogs by these Saudi pseudo-intellectuals like SaudiJeans ( or is it dirty Saudi-underwear ? ) ; SaudiWoman Eman Nafjan ; and their likes don't understand between RIGHT and PRIVILEGE. Only a deluded and deranged person would fight for women rights and not know what a Right and Privilege means. 

human rights

 noun pl

: rights (as freedom from unlawful imprisonment, torture, and execution) regarded as belonging fundamentally to all persons http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/human%20rights

privilege

: a right or immunity granted as a peculiar benefit, advantage, or favor : prerogative; especially : such a right or immunity attached specifically to a position or an office http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/privilege

It is common misconception that any person in the Saudi Arabia or any other country in the World has a right to drive a car, airplane, bicycle, rickshaw, moped, truck, or bus. There is no such right in any law or Constitution.  Driving a motor vehicle is a privilege, and that privilege can be taken away or modified based on certain conduct, including several issues surrounding rash driving cases.  We all have a human right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, but not to drive a army tank.   Once a person accused of impaired driving understands this, it is much easier to understand why many of the procedural and governmental safeguards do not apply in regards to driving a motor vehicle following a police arrest. Despite the fact that driving is a privilege, it is one that can't be removed with some form of due process. Your ability to drive may be directly tied to your ability to make a living, but does not make a privilege into right. Ability for a woman to sell her body to make a living doesn't make it a right to become a prostitute even though some western countries have legalized prostitution. 

I support the case that women in Saudi Arabia should start driving cars, trucks, buses, and bicycles provided there is an infrastructure to support this. 

Do these clueless Saudi pseudo-intellectual women would like to have their bodies touched by male police officers ? If a woman is stopped for a serious traffic violation then a police officer has a right to search her car. If driving around smoking pot and get pulled over, the police officer smells marijuana, sees a weapon or drugs in plain view he now has "probable cause" to search your body! The police officer is allowed to handcuff you and/or detain and even put you in his police car for his safety. For the safety of police officers the law allows the police to pat down your outer clothing to see if you have any weapons. If the police officer feels something that he believes is a weapon, then he can go into your pockets and pull out the item he believes is a weapon. 

A body cavity search is either a visual search or a manual internal inspection of body cavities such as for prohibited material (contraband), such as illegal drugs, money, jewelry, or weapons. It is far more invasive than the standard strip search that is typically performed on individuals under suspicion of narcotic influence or taken into custody, either upon police arrest or incarceration at a jail, prison, or psychiatric hospital. Body cavity searches may also be conducted by the Police Officers when they suspect drivers of hiding contraband—such as drugs—in their alimentary canal.It is very humiliating, uncomfortable, and invasive nature.

Imagine Eman, Manal, or Najlaa having a body search by male police officers ? Is that acceptable to you ? May be Yes, but not my wife, daughter, mother, sisters and many others. This is one of the several reasons why women cannot drive in Saudi Arabia. We need an infrastructure.

One should ask the government for an infrastructure which secures women driving like:

1- Police women to deal with body searches, arrests, custody......

2- Female Paramedics
3- Female Lawyers
4- Female Judges
5- Female Driving Learning & Examination Centers

JEDDAH: Since the beginning of the current Hijri year, 243 drivers in Jeddah have had their driving licenses withdrawn after they were caught drunk-driving or operating vehicles when under the influence of drugs, traffic police announced on Thursday. They were each sentenced to 80 lashes and fined SR500.

The police said the Jeddah summary court, which the violators were sent to, issued the verdicts. They added that under the law, the drivers would also be sentenced to various jail terms.

“The DUI drivers are a real threat to other road users and sober car drivers. They are a main cause of traffic congestion as they are not focused,” said Brig. Muhammad Al-Qahtani, director of traffic in Jeddah.

He threatened such drivers with harsher punishments and said repeat offenses would lead to a permanent withdrawal of their driving licenses.

According to traffic laws, a driver who collects 24 points on their driving licenses in a single Hijri year would have his driving license initially withdrawn for three months. Repeat offenses would lead to driving bans of six months, a year and eventually a lifetime ban for each successive misdemeanor.

The Interior Ministry has recently introduced amendments to rules governing the granting of driving licenses.

Any applicant previously convicted of assault, fraud, drugs abuse and trafficking or manufacturing of drugs or alcohol will not be granted a driving license to operate trucks or heavy machinery.

Short analysis of Saudi Pseudo-Intellectuals

Short analysis of Saudi Pseudo-Intellectuals

It is strange that the Saudi self-styled women rights pseudo-intellectuals with dubious credentials can't even understand what they are asking for. Pseudo-intellectuals are trying to act and speak as if they are cultured, intelligent and understand everything about everything, usually using western words and phrases that are not familiar to local Saudis. The finest examples of pseudo-intellectuals are Wajiha al Huwaider , Eman Fahd M. Al-Nafjan and their types.

try and spot them; it’s easy. Firstly they are dressed in a weird way and walk around with a crafted intelligent expression that, to the untrained eye, makes them look weird and eccentric but, in their eyes, they are intelligence personified. The good news is that you can expose them quite easily. When you see such a person staring intently at a totally irrelevant piece of art just stand next to them and ask the simple question: “What does it say to you?”

In their mind they will immediately start up the bullshit generator, searching out phrases that they have remembered to express their supposedly intellectual opinions. You will hear something like: “Saudi women are under oppression, not free, subdued, enslaved, concubines, not letting us drive bicycles topless on the streets of Riyadh, Jeddah or Alkhobar........”

Pretend to be thick yet fascinated by their stupidity – and they simply get worse. For example, they will start to quote Western philosophers in support of their stupidity. I’ve had arguments with these people on a couple of occasions. Everyone will come across someone like this at some point in their lives. A lot of women are guilty of this, and don't even get me started about sexism. Saudi women do it because they think men will stereotype them as stupid if they don't talk about politics or some other such boring topic that nobody really gives a damn about it, but if so many of them weren't brought up with this super-model mentality, then maybe they'd give a rats ass about something outside of their microcosmic universe and stop buying into all the latest clothing trends.

So beware the pseudo-intellectual folks. Beware the person who uses a hundred words when one will do. Beware the person who criticizes sane judgments, norms, customs, culture and values. Beware the buffoon who tries to quote Socrates or Aristotle to you. Beware the person who chuckles when standing in front of a pile of cat’s puke on a canvas and says “You simply don’t get it because you simply can’t grasp the concept of retro-physical potential in an academic vacuum that procreates despondency while at the same time expanding personal karma in a futuristic yet nihilistic orgy of barbaric crescendo.” 

The majority of pseudo-intellectuals, the mainstream media, the masonic academic world, and many feminists, in the name of respecting other cultures and religions, were trying to justify their distorted understanding of Islam by dividing it into fundamentalist and moderate, progressive and reactionary, Medina's and Mecca's, folksy and non-folksy, poisonous and edible. It is suffocating to listen to and to have to refute endless tales to justify this distortions, smear campaign and misogyny. Parallel to this pseudo-Intellectual carnage, apologists for Freedom or Women Rights try to divert people's righteous loathing for Islam and for the political Islamic movement, to limit it to a hatred of fundamentalism'. They attempt to reduce the anti-Islamic struggle to anti-fundamentalism. They keep telling us that what we loathe is fundamentalism, not the 'true', the 'real' Islam. They pledge 'reform in Islam' and the application of a 'positive interpretation of the Quran' to women's rights by linguistic turn ? They raise the idea of Islamic feminism and try to attach a human face to the monstrous face of Islam against women. The rights of freedom of expression, equality of men and women, and a secular state apply to people in the 'Third World' too. Isn't it shameful that these Saudi Liberals, Secularists, Women Rights advocates don't argue about it.

Are the maids from Indonesia, Sri Lanka, India, Ethopia, Egypt, Morocco, Yemen less human than the Saudi Women ? Where are the rights for these female workers ? Why don't the hypocrites like Zaki Safar or is it unZaki Sifar who has "a passion for women's rights & an aversion 2 corruption & religious extremism, I dream of & work toward a brighter future for my country (Saudi Arabia)" standup for the rights of maids tortured by Saudis ?

It is obvious that these Saudi Pseudo-intellectual are not sincere rather they are sycophants, showoffs, and shameless braggers.

Here are some reports on which Pseudo-Intellectuals like Eman Fahd M. Al Nafjan, AbulKhair and unZaki Sifar can work on.

Report 0:

(Saudi) Woman Tortured, Killed Maid for Being ‘Lazy’

Ali Huwash, Arab News —

JIZAN, 8 June 2007 — A woman schoolteacher, one of the suspects in the murder of an Asian housemaid in March, has admitted to her (sic) torturing the maid until she was dead.

The Saudi sponsor of the maid who took her to (sic) hospital and the sponsor’s schoolteacher wife were both arrested in Jizan in March following a hospital report about the death of the maid, whose nationality has not been revealed to the press.

According to the report of the Samita General Hospital in Jizan, a Saudi man brought in an expatriate woman who died shortly after she was admitted. The hospital report attributed the death to internal and external injuries.

The teacher told the investigators that she and her husband used to punish the maid in various forms such as beating, branding and locking up while denying her food and water for days on end.

The teacher said they resorted to crude methods of punishment because the maid was lazy and negligent in her work. The teacher said they had every right to make the maid work because they had spent a lot of money to bring her from her native country.

The confessions were recorded in the court in line with the normal procedures, according to police sources. The coroner who examined the body had found serious wounds and burns. The investigations were conducted under the supervision of Brig. Obaid Al-Khomash, assistant director of Jizan police.

The officer said the investigations have been completed and the suspect, who is an employee of the general education department in Jizan, will remain in a local general prison until the trial begins.

The embassy of the maid’s county has been (sic) taken steps to guarantee that the culprit does not go unpunished. The relatives of the suspects have been in touch with the embassy officials and the relatives of the deceased to settle the matter with the payment of blood money.

Report 1:

Didi Wahyudi, chief of the citizen service and protection task force at the Indonesian Consulate in Jeddah, said on Wednesday police in Madinah have yet to react to a complaint against a Saudi employer accused of torturing 23-year-old Indonesian maid Sumiati binti Salan Mustapa.

Wahyudi told Arab News via phone from Madinah that the housemaid was undergoing intensive treatment, including surgery, to ensure restoration of her battered organs, lips, nose and limbs.

The housemaid was hospitalized at King Fahd Hospital in Madinah on Nov. 8 with burns, cuts to her face made with scissors and a fractured finger. “ The case has made headlines in Indonesia after President Yudhoyono himself instructed the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to look into the matter seriously and send a diplomatic mission, including health officials, to Madinah,” said Wahyudi, who said police aren't likely to take action, if any, until after the Eid holiday.

Report 2:

JEDDAH: An Indonesian housemaid has been hospitalized with severe injuries, allegedly inflicted by her employer and his wife. “My sponsor struck me with an electric wire and then burned various parts of my body and broke my front teeth,” Naser Al-Dandani, an attorney at the Indonesian Embassy, quoted the maid, whose name was not revealed, as saying in a statement. She is currently in the Riyadh Medical Complex hospital. The maid, 20, working in the house of a Civil Defense officer in Riyadh, was hospitalized three weeks ago, Al-Dandani said. According to a medical report prepared by the hospital, the maid was semi-conscious and had sustained burns of varying degrees on her genitals and back. When she was brought to the hospital by the Red Crescent, according to the attorney, she had broken teeth and a bleeding mouth and black marks on her face and around her eyes. The Red Crescent was notified about the woman by members of the public who found her lying on the road.

“This is the 16th case of abuse of housemaids registered at the Indonesian Embassy this year. Some of them were victims of rape and consequently illegitimate pregnancy,” the attorney told Arab News.

“The sponsor, who visited the embassy yesterday morning, denied all charges made by the maid against him and his wife. He said he did not know how she received physical injuries and they had never ill-treated her. The maid, on the contrary, insisted that the sponsor and his wife struck her and they had not paid her salary for the 19 months and 14 days she worked for them,” the attorney said.

Regarding the role of the embassy in such cases, the attorney said: “In issues of ill treatment of maids, the embassy takes the necessary steps to protect the victim from violence, including legal measures.”

The maid said in her statement to the embassy that she was tortured because she did not know the specific needs of Saudi families. She said she had received training in Saudi domestic work before she traveled to the Kingdom 20 months ago, the attorney added.

Report 3:

RIYADH: Doctors in Sri Lanka have found 23 nails in the body of a tortured housemaid who returned to Colombo from Riyadh, Sri Lankan Embassy sources told Arab News on Tuesday.

“We have received this complaint from the Foreign Ministry in Colombo, who said the maid has been allegedly tortured by her sponsor,” a senior diplomat from the Sri Lankan mission in Riyadh told Arab News. “We are looking for the sponsor. We were able to track down the Saudi recruitment agent in Riyadh and we will summon the sponsor to discuss this issue,” the official said.
Doctors at the Kamburipitya Base Hospital in the Matara district, 140 km from Colombo, said the nails had been hammered into the maid’s body. Dr. Kamal Weeratunge, who was treating the maid, claimed the nails had been heated up before they punctured her skin.
On Sri Lankan television channel Newsfirst Sirasa, the maid showed the marks where the nails had gone through. The maid, identified as 50-year-old Ariyawathie, said that there were too many people to serve in the house where she worked.
“I had to work continuously since I had to do the chores of all the occupants and when I wanted to take rest due to tiredness, they inserted the nail in my body as a punishment,” she said.
“I had to work from dawn to dusk. I hardly slept. They beat me and threatened to kill me and hide my body.” She added that she arranged her travel documents to return home on her own expense. “They were really devils with no mercy at all,” she said.
According to records at the Sri Lankan Embassy, the maid came to the Kingdom on March 25. The diplomat said that the sponsor had bypassed the mission and made his own arrangements to send the woman home. “We can only deal with cases that come up before the mission,” he said. However, he added that the mission would take action following the complaint submitted to the embassy from Colombo.
The maid had come to Saudi Arabia after being registered at the Sri Lanka Bureau of Foreign Employment (SLBFE). SLBFE chairman Kingsley Ranawake said that a formal inquiry would be held with the concerned maid and appropriate action taken.

The truth should be spoken. These pseudo-intellectuals created a tide of shallow culture, painting a false picture that lacked depth, insight or truthfulness. This self-centered mentality in which everything should revolve around the guilt of Saudi pseudo-intellectuals is appalling. Saudi Pseudo intellectuals are so shameless that they did not bother to utter any word of criticism or equality rights for women who come and work in Saudi Arabia. Their sympathy for the so-called "oppressed" Saudi Women is only a facade and  hypocrisy held them back from shedding a single drop of tears for the bereaved families of tortured, raped, murdered, Maids. These Saudi Pseudo-Intellectuals are only good to fill the hollow space with hatred, twisted darkness, and gross  miscarriage of common judgment.

Why Manal al-Sharif should be Jailed for one year ?

Manal Al-Sherif, a 32-year-old Saudi woman working in Saudi Aramco as an Information Technology professional was jailed on charges of driving without a license in the eastern city of Khobar last week and later released on Custodial Bail pending investigation.

The Saudi Prosecution which is called Bureau of Investigation and Public Prosecution (  هيئة التحقيق والادعاء العام   ) http://www.bip.gov.sa  is probably building up it's case against Manal Al-Sharif.

If she was driving in a public place, certainly it was not her first joy ride. How many times she might have driven the vehicle without a valid Saudi driving license and without a valid insurance policy for the vehicle is for the accused to calculate. It should be clear that imposing a prison term and fine upon Manal al-Sharif will have deterrent effect upon all those who call for driving cars without a valid Saudi License or Saudi Insurance Policy.  Following incarceration Manal al-Sharif should on probation for three years. The problem is, if you say on a first offence you're going to do a short, sharp period of incarceration — OK, that's going to be the law, that's going to be the minimum penalty in this country.  I have concluded therefore, that a period of imprisonment is warranted.




The Saudi Bureau of Investigation and Public Prosecution should consider requesting the courts for harsh punishment against Manal Al-Sharif  as she is a threat to national security by promoting rebellion against government.


Some points which Saudi Prosecution would consider:
1. Breaking the Law 
2. Calling other women to break the law that is to drive without valid Saudi license and valid insurance policy
3. Covertly supporting the campaign for women to drive without valid Saudi license and valid insurance policy 




Such people, like Manal, and her supporters are calling for something totally irrational. Putting other peoples live at danger by driving cars without any valid Saudi license and insurance. If one is caught then they should get the full force of the law brought down on them. Driving without insurance, without a Saudi license one should be jailed. Did Manal al-Sharif and all those women who drive without valid Saudi license and insurance ever consider what if they had an accident and killed others , should they be tried for manslaughter for wilfully putting lives at risk ?


Arab News reported on 22 Nov 2010 that  Five Saudi women died for driving for fun ( Joyriding ) according to Fawaz Al-Maiman, spokesman for Riyadh police.


Arabian Business reports Joyriders in Saudi Arabia face tough new penalties under a traffic law which aims to reduce the country’s annual road accident bill of SR21 billion ($5.6bn). A supreme traffic council will be established at the Interior Ministry to set future traffic policies, acting information minister Saud Al Muthami told Arab News.

The threat posed by joyriding and fun driving comes not from Saudi pseudo women liberation activists per se but from the senile minds. That fact has been lost in the rush to demonize people who want our roads to be safe from such people who drive without valid Saudi driving license or valid Saudi insurance policy.

If our ultimate goals are to reduce driver impairment and maximize highway safety, we should be punishing reckless fun driving more consistently. It shouldn’t matter if it’s caused by joyriding, fun, sleep deprivation, prescription medication, text messaging, Saudi women liberation, or road rage. If lawmakers want to stick it to dangerous drivers who threaten everyone else on the road, they can dial up the civil and criminal liability for fun joy riding reckless driving, especially in cases that result in injury or property damage. The punishable act should be violating road rules or causing an accident, not the factors that led to those offenses.

Saudi Analyst :: Political & Religious Analysis for Saudi Arabia

I am not one to make new resolutions, but at least twice a year I take time to assess where I’m at in my life spiritually, emotionally, intellectually and physically, then make whatever adjustments I feel I need to make in my ongoing progression as a human being. I have been contemplating for the last couple months to change my focus from blogging on socio-political topics to more socio-religious subjects. I have a desire to spend more time exploring and developing in greater depth the religious/spiritual part of my life. Therefore, I have created a new blog page called “Saudi Analyst” to embark on this journey.  The most potent weapon in the hands of the oppressor is the mind of the oppressed. Therefore: think, comment, commit to action.... and never underestimate the power of prayer.

Politicians and pundits use the phrase “Cost of Freedom” a lot, usually in reference to something they are asking you to do that you probably prefer not to, such as pay higher taxes, wear a uniform, submit to intrusive surveillance, or simply keep quiet about any doubts you may have about the former.
Before going into the cost of freedom, however, perhaps we need to take a closer look at what we mean by freedom, exactly.

There is no pure, perfect freedom. We all agree that there are certain things we should not be free to do, such as to walk in and out of each others’ homes removing TV sets and jewelry, or shoot the neighbor who is hard of hearing and falls asleep each night in front of the too-loud TV set. We understand and agree to certain rules required to create a society in which specialized skills operate together in mutually beneficial commerce.
So, let us start out by defining a free society not as a society where people are free to do what they wish, but as one in which we freely choose to surrender certain behaviors in exchange for the benefits of living within that society. A covenant exists between the rulers and the ruled in which each freely agrees to follow a set of rules of behavior, in exchange for a certain set of rights. In the United States, that covenant is enshrined in the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, a contract which lays out what the government may, and more importantly may not do.

In a free society, the covenant must be enforced on both the rulers and the ruled equally. To enforce the covenant upon the people there is law enforcement, and when needed, prison. To enforce the covenant on the side of the government, the Founding Fathers created a government of three components, each charged with keeping an eye on the other two, and when needed, to legally restrain excess of authority.
The Founding Fathers created a nation in which government was broken into separate components that enforced the covenant on each other because history has shown that power attracts the very sort of people who should never have it. With precious few exceptions, most people who seek power do so for very selfish reasons, and willing to do anything to get it, are usually equally willing to do anything with it. A free society must be one in which the freedoms of the rulers are subject to the same limits as the freedoms of the people.
At the dawning of the Third Millennium, the United States has fallen from the Republic created by the Founding Fathers to a society in which the government is not enforced to adhere to the covenant, and rights and freedoms are surrendered by the people not in exchange for benefits, but by trickery and deception.
The US Government has fallen from the high and noble ideals on which the nation was founded. The covenant is broken, and the US Government rules the nation by fear, not only of its direct authority but of an endless and unbroken chain of manufactured fears used to terrorize the people of the nation into agreeing to surrender more rights, more money, even the lives of their children.

For almost 50 years following WW2, the US Government waved the fear of “The Communist Menace” at us all, in response to which We The People surrendered trillions of dollars building nuclear weapons to point at the Soviets. Looking back, we see that the Communist government was at the same time waving “The Capitalist Menace” at their citizens, to trick them into surrendering their wealth into building of nuclear weapons to point back at the USA.

Following the collapse of the USSR, the United States Government lost its most potent demon to wave at the masses. But it was quickly replaced with SARS, Aids, Swine Flu, Avian Flu, Ebola, Global Warming, Global Cooling, inflation, deflation, and most recently terrorists. Each and every demon was waved at us to trick us into surrendering more of our money, more of our children’s lives, more of our rights, and each and every demon had no more substance than the paper-mache’ heads used by the Wizard of Oz to trick Dorothy into making war on the Wicked Witch of the West. Fear gave politicians issues to run on, defense and medical corporations markets for their products, and media sensational content for their periodicals and broadcasts.
That it was all trickery and deception with the purpose of tricking us out of our rights was best illustrated by President George W. Bush’s plan to deal with Avian Flu, which not only enriched his good friend Donald Rumsfeld, but also included gun confiscation. It should be noted that firearms (and the second amendment) do not increase one’s susceptibility to infection by viruses. Clearly, the real agenda isn’t to save the populace from a flu virus (which as of this writing has actually killed few humans), but to grab the guns and remove the right to firearms recognized by the Founding Fathers.

The problem with a government that rules by fear is that once they have started to use fear on their own population they can never stop, never allow the fear to subside, never allow the population to calm down and think rationally. Because when the population stops being afraid, when they start to think, they will start asking why they cannot have all the rights, freedoms, and money back. This actually happened following the collapse of the USSR in 1990, when Americans, tired of the trillions in taxes collected and spent on the nuclear deterrent, demanded a drastic reduction in military spending. So, in 1991, the US tricked Saddam Hussein into invading Kuwait by promising they would not object, then invaded Iraq, thereby having a convenient war to keep the military budget inflated.

Today we are in two wars, both of which now appear to have been started with outright lies by the US Government. Americans are starting to say “no” to more wars and that is a good thing, for above all else freedom means the freedom to say “no” to the government,; to remind them that they too are bound by the covenant to restrict their actions to the letter of the Constitution and the laws.

The Cost of that Freedom isn’t paying more taxes or wearing a uniform; it is simply to decide one will not be afraid of the manufactured demons put forth in print and in TV that serve no purpose than to keep the people meek and under control. That is all it takes; the will to not be afraid.

Of course the government does not like people who refuse to live in fear, or who say no. Every time a citizen stands up and says “no” the tyrant fears. Every time a citizen refuses to be afraid the government will work extra hard to make that person afraid, and even today we see those who speak out, because they are no longer afraid, subjected to harassment and intimidation. Yet they remain unafraid, for they see the harassment and intimidation for what it is, a symptom of a government losing control of the people, and they choose to remain unafraid.

So, that’s really all there is to it. Refusing to be afraid. Refusing to be tricked out of your rights.
Freedom is the freedom to say “no”, and the freedom to live your life unafraid.
