Just a quick history reminder; the founding fathers wrote a great deal of published works anonymously while still under British Rule. Those cowards.
Hi Publius
You have an admirable moniker (had to look it up).
I’m sure our founding fathers had to choose their battles wisely, but when push came to shove, literally they put their names on the line. In most instances, I have to think discretion was the better part of valor not knowing the direction the colonies might be going.
Today, Ben, Tom, and Sam might still want to remain anonymous under certain circumstances, but obviously history shows they weren’t cowards. As I mentioned in the article, some opinions might be stifled for fear of retribution. But being more forthright identifying who we are may bring greater strength in the individual, as it did with Publius Valerius Publicola.
