Very good post, and I couldn't agree with you more.
The statement made:You always will have some individuals abusing freedom for crimes.
This is the most used buzz words they they to push into peoples mind.
And as Mr Franklin said, “Those who surrender freedom for security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one.”
That's us what is happening, by using scare tactics and calling people who oppose their tyranny, a terrorist, a rebel, anarchist, the list goes on, but they called those who fought for our freedom the same names. But today we call them our fore fathers that fought for liberty.
But to really understand you have to understand, what they are using is called the Hegelian affect, create a problem, have the solution and wait for they reaction.
