Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both

Ben Franklin did not know into how small a package one could compress the fires of hell. The death toll on 09/11/01 was about 8% of the population of Philadelphia. What are we going to lose with a 1 kiloton nuke? A little security?

I have a bit of hard time taking the rouse of security serioiusly when the borders remain open. Keep the borders wide open so that we can all suffer the attemps at securing the aftermath. Does not sound reasonable to me. The number one thing that needs to be done in the name of security is that the borders have to be sealed to illegals. Chances are that if a nuke comes into the united states via a terroist then it is going to be carried by someone illegal sneaking it across the border.
