The real danger is that we might die at their hands because we will not change.

You've not read anything I've said. They can kill you, me, and thousands of other Americans, but the USA and the Constitution would live on.

Only by giving up freedom and liberty, can we allow the US to be destroyed, because without freedom the USA would turn into just one more despotic totalitarian regime.

Just like the regimes that our troops have been fighting against in Afghanistan and Iraq. Just like the regimes our parents fought against in WWII.

Yes, I will give up freedoms to crush this evil that would rule the world.

You can, I won't. I didn't serve my country, and my daughter and nephews are not currently serving, just so we can give up our freedoms.

Go find your father or grandfather who was around during WWII. Tell them that you think we should give up freedom to "crush this evil that would rule the world". Watch them become angry and red in the face and tell you that a certain dictator used that exact reasoning to come to power.

I'm not invoking Godwin's Law by the way, because it is a direct reference, and therefore relevant.
