You are SO right.
And I am so glad that many American's fathers and grandfathers thought the same way. They gave their lives, and took lives, for that definition of freedom. It's a little bit of a shame that they died for people willing to piss away freedoms paid for in blood, but on the whole, I'm sure they are glad they did it, and I am extremely grateful to them.
American fathers, including my own, did not spill their precious blood so that senseless Americans would sit back, hold out their necks and allow American enemies to slit off our heads. SOMEONE PLEASE PROVIDE THE DANIEL PEARL DEATH VIDEO LINK!!
Ibbryn, this is exactly what is at stake. Supporting strong Homeland Security is not the same as surrending our freedom. In truth, strong security will protect our freedom. This is what our fathers expect of us.
