A tribute to George Carlin


Couple of days ago the world lost one of the biggest fighter for free speech. I have to admit that two years ago i have not heard about George Carlin. It a bit hard to catch up with the all those smart people who are doing great job. By its a bit hard i mean European union, corrupt European politicians, broken European media and lack of education and information. I mean i live in my bubble and i never could imagine that in America there are many people who are speaking truly to many issues that are important.
I will use a phrase that Bill Maher once used for Richard Prior. For me George Carlin is the Mount Rushmore for free speech. I'm very sad for the lost of this great man. For me George Carlin wasn't a comedian. He was a genius. The words that he said and wrote are very profound and deep. He presented a thing called logic and critical thinking in the mainstream media. I'm glad that a lot of people have catch up to his work. This man wasn't afraid to go after the regular people, the bad segments of the religion, politicians and the stupid America in general.
I really don't have enough big words to express my self what i think for George Carlin. Nobody can't do that. The best thing is to see his work and to continue the battle between logic and stupidity where George Carlin was the lead General.

Rest in peace Gorge Carlin...
