Increasing freedom enables citizens to defend themselves, making it less likely that those terrorists will be able to blow your head off.
I think for the sake of safety... enjoyed... freedom... will be restricted for our future.
You then "wish" that we could go back, further admitting "it probably will never be in our life time." But if we do return to a state of freedom we had before, "then we will have homicide bombers or worse."
So what is your solution?
The ONLY way you stop all that is with vigilance. That kind of vigilance restricts the previous freedoms we had....
At the start of this war, the President assured us that he would fight, and not let the freedom hater destroy our freedom. But the calls for surrender by people like you, has resulted in just that kind of surrender, incrementally.
Had just a few of the citizen passangers and crews on those planes been armed in the first place, the hijack could never have happened. Increasing the freedoms of our citizens, would put such kinds of terrorism to a quick end.
Freedom works.
