1st Amendment Ignored?

I'll keep that in mind. If I find the resolve in me to speak out, I will, though it is likely I might have these things happen to me.
I am going to dread this. My dad, who doesn't really support activism, tell me "Don't sweat the small stuff."
I answer that this is a breach of the constitution, and that is not a small issue, which I then compare to inhibiting someone's right to bear arms.
He generally concedes the argument but reiterates that I should 'bear and grin it'. I can't see myself being passive, but I don't have the nature of a martyr.

Thanks all, I'll work this out on my own from here, just needed your advice.
My conclusion is that there is no reason to believe any of the dogmas of traditional theology and, further, that there is no reason to wish that they were true.
Man, in so far as he is not subject to natural forces, is free to work out his own destiny. The responsibility is his, and so is the opportunity.
-Bertrand Russell
