Question:
Are there today Islamofascists willing to blow up our buildings? If "yes" then LESS CIVIL LIBERTIES FOR YOU!
Are there today Japanese Americans willing to bomb our naval forces. If "no" then please leave internment camps and commence normal daily living.
I'll stop wanting your civil liberties when you stop wanting to kill me. Deal?
