my opinion isn't (a) right

For me, arguments have almost always ended with one of the parties stating something along the lines of "I have the right to my opinion," and never have a questioned that; until I read this essay. In a time hell-bent on rights, whether they be civil rights, or gun rights, it's odd to think that someone doesn't have a right to their thoughts and opinions.

This is my first Socratic seminar, and I really enjoyed it. It's great to be given the opportunity to share thoughts and ideas without any barriers, maybe next time I'll speak up more. There are still a few points I wish I had made and so forth.
