“As terrorists increasingly recruit U.S. citizens, the government needs to constantly balance Americans’ civil rights and privacy with the need to keep people safe, said Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano.”

Why do I feel like she’s not talking about trading off non-existent civil and privacy rights of illegal immigrants and terrorists - and planning only to “trade off” the constitutional rights of US citizens?

What exactly would our founding fathers do in the face of this nonsense, and why would she expect us to easily dispense with certain inalienable rights that have been endowed in us by our Creator?

Yeah, porky...that's what Brewer is trying to tell you refugees from an insane asylum up there, but you want to sue her and Arizona for it. I think that quote should be used by Brewers defense attorney, as you just won her case for her...dipstick.

You want to keep the country safe, get rid of all that "politically correct" B.S., stop worrying about "profiling", and give us all the right to carry...we'll keep it safe for you.

The government can't even run the post office or the licensing bureau...somehow they don't make me feel very safe, at least not with the current CIC (clown in chief) at the helm.
