I find it sad how many people so strongly advocate safety over freedom.
I get it, folks are scared, and many people look to government like a toddler looks to a parent.
But I have news for you... the state didn't come into existence to keep us safe - it came into existence to keep us free.
You don't get to use every scary situation to use the apparatus to club the rest of us and expect us all to perpetually grin and bear it. Enough is enough.
