What happens when the foundations of free speech and individual liberty are under threat—and no one is sounding the alarm? In this episode of #GoRight with Peter Boykin, host Peter Boykin explores the stakes of political correctness, censorship, and governmental overreach in our modern era. When is it acceptable to compromise freedom—or is that slippery path always justifying a greater loss?

We’ll dive into:
  • What “losing freedom” really means—and why people might rationalize it.
  • * Key events and policies that test the boundaries of free speech.
  • * The consequences for society if silence becomes safer than speaking out.
  • * How to identify when the trade-offs go too far—and what it takes to push back.

If you believe freedom isn’t negotiable, this episode is your call to stay vigilant, ask hard questions, and never justify the loss of what’s essential.

Never justify losing freedom. This is a hashtag Go write
with Peter Boykin commentary brought to you with the article
who really owns Free Speech? After Charlie Kirk's death. You
can check out this article and more on go rightnews
dot com. Let's talk plainly about the First Amendment and

(00:25):
what it really means, because too many people today only
seem to defend free speech when it benefits their side.
The First Amendment of the United States Constitution says, quote
Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech?

(00:45):
Are of the press? Are the right of people peacefully
to a symbol that is not fancy legal jargon. It
is a firewalk against tyranny. It means the government cannot
decide which voices get heard and which voices get silenced.

(01:07):
It does not exist to protect the comfortable are the popular.
It exists to protect the uncomfortable, the offensive, the dissenting.
Because the second you let the government decide what counts
as a sceptible speech, you have already given away your freedom.

(01:27):
And yet here we are, in the aftermath of Charlie
Kirk's death, watching people twist his name to justify censorship
and cancel culture the very things he stood against. Kirk
built his career on open debate. He believed all voices
should be heard, even when they clashed with his own.

(01:52):
He rejected cancel culture on principle. He warned against government
overreach because he knew the powerful enough the silence the
other side will eventually silence everyone. So when I see
people standing with Kirk while calling for cancelations in his name,

(02:12):
I have to say it. You are not honoring him.
You are betraying him. If you think counseling others and
Kirk's memory somehow protects his legacy, you are spitting on
what he lived and died for. Freedom is not tested
by how we treat the voices we love. Freedom is

(02:32):
tested by how we defend the voices we despise. That
is the hard truth. I mean, like you say, I
might not agree with you what you say, but I
will defend your right to say. You do not to
get the cherry pick liberty. If you cheer when your
opponents are silenced, do not be surprised when the same

(02:55):
blade is turned against you. The First Amendment is not suggestion.
It is a backbone of the constitutional republic. And once
we start excusing its erosion because quote they deserved it,
are because it feels convenient. We lose it for everyone.
Never justify losing freedom because once it's gone, it does

The Burden

The Burden

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
