Ben Franklin never had nukes to worry about. If so, he would have used common sense and put it in perspective.
Ben Franklin would have said we need to use whatever means available to survive and destroy the enemy (radical Islam...the pieceful religion).

You are so full of crap to assume Ben Franklin is an ends justifies the means type of guy...where the hell do you get this? Which portion of his writings would give credibility to this absurd statement?

You're right, and Ben Franklin would have pushed to anihilate(?) the enemy within, and punish the enemy without. Our rights and "liberties" will mean nothing while we are in the death throes of radiation sickness, small and monkeypox, or anthrax. I daresay the ACLU will be defunct.
