Of all of our freedoms, "Freedom of Speech" is the most important!
"THE FREE SPEECH ADDRESS"
Twelvescore and ten years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation conceived in liberty, dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal, and celebrating the right of every individual to live life as they see fit. Eightscore and one year ago those words rang more true as a great war that had divided our nation ended, and the morally right side prevailed as our black brothers and sisters were set free.
Yet now we are engaged in another great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. This time another precious freedom is at stake, the right of every person to freely express their thoughts in words or actions in a way that is contrary to others, the majority, or those in power. We are all now met on the great battlefield of that war. We must stand up for the right of every person to have a voice, and trust in good faith that good ideas will prevail over bad ones. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we must all trust each other. We must trust in the pure hearts and intentions of our fellow countrymen, otherwise our house that is now divided against itself will not stand. The world should take note and long remember what we say here because the fate of free and civil societies hangs in the balance. It is for us, the living, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work of the one who preached that a man should not be judged by the color of his skin, but by the content of his character. But how can you truly know the content of his character if you don't allow him to talk to you at some length? We must highly resolve to protect and cherish this most precious freedom of speech so that this free nation that is a beacon to so many others shall not perish from this earth.

Today, every American should take the time to think about all those who gave everything they had, even their lives to make our lives today possible in America. We should not let today go by without thinking about the sacrifices they made to establish this nation for posterity. They thought ahead of future generations, which is something the leaders in our government should be doing in order for America to survive.
We have been warned that our country would be destroyed from within; no need for a kinetic war to do it. It starts with capturing the minds of children, as our current indoctrination (“education”) system is doing. Teach children that our country is bad and not something to be proud of. Teach children (and medical students) that there are more than 2 genders and that men can become pregnant. Change the language “gestating parent”). Tell little girls that men don’t matter. Teach little boys that masculinity is toxic and fatherhood is unimportant. Teach young people that hard work and success is racist. Teach them that they will be happy when they own nothing. Teach them that it is the role of government to provide all their needs, from cradle to grave. Teach them that it is government that should provide them with a home, their groceries, their “education”, and their healthcare. Break the spirit of rugged individualism which is what helped to build this country. Ban the Bible because it is full of “hate speech.” We are living in dangerous times.
I would change your cynical presentation to “Allopathic doctors…”. You left out the increasing role of naturopathic physicians and integrative medicine practitioners.

What a time we’ve had.
Did my brain fall out of my head or wasn't the Flexner report an absolute disaster which still causes vast harm to this day?
