Call me a pussy or letting the terrorists win or some shit, but I am paranoid as fuck, and there's no way I'd risk my life. Unless you work somewhere really important I doubt your house is any safer than your usual routine. If they're willing to go after random places you might go like a store or a gym then they're equally willing to just bomb your house. Neither seem likely. | ||

They are worth the price. Just like anything in life, too much of anything (freedom) is a bad thing. Sometimes you have to sacrifice a little. If you consider the governments measures Draconian I wonder what you consider Iran's government. | ||

I don't generalize or judge anyone but the U.S. state which is seperate from the individual citizen. A good example is torture. If you ask an individual to torture someone and you know with 100% certainty this will save 1,000 lives, would you do it? I would but if I was put in the same position except as a head of state and my option is to order this individual to torture this person to save 1,000 lives, would I do it? No, I need to find another way to protect those lives as if one of the objectives of my theoretical state is to protect my citizens that objective doesn't take precedence over the objective to respect human rights You can't expect people to act this principled but a state has to. | ||
