Three men were waiting at Dallas Airport for their respective flights. One was a lanky, brash, gun-chewing cowboy, one an elderly American Indian and the other a Fundamentalist Arab Student. They got into conversation but when it was known that the Arab student was a devout radical Muslim, all were quiet. "Three hundred years ago" said the Indian, "My people were many, and we roamed all over this vast land. Now we are few, and confined to reservations. I often wonder why." "Three hundred years ago" sneered the Muslim student, "Islam was unknown here. Now there are thousands of Muslims everywhere. Do you know why that is?" The cowboy stretched his legs our, pushed his Stetson to the back of his head and drawled, "Well, Ah guess that's because we ain't played Cowboys and Muslims yet - but Ah reckon it's 'comin!" I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, or free to choose those who shall govern my country. This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind. - John Diefenbaker (From the Canadian Bill of Rights, July 1, 1960.) | ||
