Of course, we know that those who think like this author can be trusted to run and hide at the first trouble shrieking about their lost "rights."
Who is running and hiding exactly?
Seems to me the people demanding to be "protected" against anything and everything imaginable are the ones running and hiding.
Hyperbolic red herrings never add much to a substantive conversation. Our nation is under attack by a deadly enemy and must be protected from its attacks. You got a problem with that? Or did 9/11 never happen?
