Life in the so called free world

So we live in the free world...really?
Are you free to go out at night,   go where ever you like...or
are you afraid, living in fear, hiding behind triple locked doors with
bars on the windows, like a prisoner doing time until daylight comes?

Who rules the night? is it not the delinquents, and gang members and
gun toting criminals, that have the freedom to kill, and do as they please.
Land of the free? You decide!

What about freedom from lies? that are spread like manure on the ground,
and we eat of it's poisonous fruit everyday and it becomes a part of us
and the cycle repeats. What about freedom  from hate and prejudice? 
Or is it alive and kicking still your neighborhoods?

Hate and racism run wild  like the wolf and the lion 
seeking to devour their next innocent young victim, 
who waits wide eyed like a deer in the headlights  waiting 
for death to come without even knowing what hit them.

What about freedom from fear?  When it is preached in the pulpits
that God is vengeful and tortures for an eternity in a hellfire.
Does that make sense to you,  that a God of love tortures
and torments, when we are made in his image and torture 
to us is repugnant?

Life in the free world is really free?  You decide.
