On this NSA stuff: If we're trying to defend our nation, what is it we're defending? Is it just the land and/or the people?
Or is it the principles that make the USA what it is that we're so proud to be a part of in the first place?
I believe it's the latter. And if I'm right, it makes no sense to take away our rights and freedoms in order to defend them, does it?
Or as Thomas Jefferson said:
"I would rather be exposed to the inconveniencies attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it." -- Thomas Jefferson
