When we got organized as a country and we wrote a fairly radical Constitution with a radical Bill of Rights, giving a radical amount of freedom to Americans... And so a lot of people say theres too much personal freedom. When personal freedoms being abused, you have to move to limit it. Thats what we did in the announcement I made last weekend on the Housing Projects, about how were going to have weapon sweeps and more things like that to try to make the people feel safer in their communitiesPresident Bill Clinton 3-22-94, MTVs Enough is Enough
Does TSA come to your mind when you read this?
We cant be so fixated on our desire to preserve the rights of ordinary Americans..
