Quote applicable to current event


"Those who wish to sacrifice essential liberties for a bit of temporary security deserve neither and will likely lose both." - Benjamin Franklin

Please disregard the F-bomb and the unnecessary "God Bless America" Garbage at the end of the video. I think the editor of this video went a bit far.

Our rights are being zapped away at the speed of light, all in the name of security.

I heard about this on the news (where they, of course, did not show a video), and just assumed the guy that got tased was a wack job, saying or doing something outrageously innappropriate. Sure he was a little over the top, but no need to get cuffed--let alone get tasered. WOW! UF (I assume this was actually campus police) is going to get sued very quickly. As is John Kerry I imagine.

I don't know if Kerry will get sued (not that I'm a huge fan of his, but); he didn't really do anything. He was saying "I'll answer the question, etc."
