Quote:
Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.

Some people say that quote is irrelevant now, that we live in a different world that Ben did. I say that's bull. This quote is all that is needed to completely destroy the USA Patriot Act.
This nation is supposed to be governed through the US Constitution and the intent and desires expressed by its framers. Period.
We don't need the Patriot Act. We need this ineffective, childish congress to get serious about our actual security and put money into our ship ports and air ports to check out cargo and personell entering and exiting our borders.
And we need to beef up our first responders. Anything else is fluff and bullshit. And USA Patriot act is dangerous bullshit.
