Good day to you and yours :)

Reddit Cannot Stop This Train. Our petition was removed from multiple Subreddits by moderators, immediately. One Subreddit did not immediately remove, but every comment was filled with hate or curse words, or both. Saddens me to know multiple Reddit communities seriously lack civil discourse.

You Decide When To Remain Silent and When To Speak. Charlie decided to speak to numerous people despite numerous threats. He walked tall and sat up with a straight back, ready to voice his opinion and ready to listen. Setting the microphone down while another person spoke was no accident, but a sincere attempt at listening.

Free Speech For Everybody. This petition, a petition truly for the common good of common people, requires your continued support. You do not need to express every opinion. Free speech at large is not the same though, because it actually needs consistent outward support to maintain. Our petition simply prescribes a small statue on U-M campus. More importantly the statue and the petition itself serves as a reminder to hold up your chin, speak your mind, and hear others.

Happy to report our petition gained traction on day one and is picking up speed. Please give financial support if you can. Much appreciate all you do to support.

Thank you!
A Son, Father, Husband, Brother, Uncle
