Ben Franklin said it best. Give up a little liberty to get some security, and you deserve neither.

Yes he did, and he was a great founding father for America, but as others have said regarding other issues (i.e. homosexuality is wrong according to the bible, slavery is normal) . . . times change.

This country is not USA of 1776. Because of our growth and the threat of destruction unparalleled in the 1700s, giving up just a little libery may be a necessary evil.

I would hate to think of it, or actually witness our country track movement across state borders and other stuff, but I REALLY hate to think about another 9/11 after 9/11 after 9/11 because we are hated so much by the world, with many willing to go to great lengths to carry out such horrific acts.
