Why Isn't the Fourth Amendment Classified as Top Secret?
The problem is a difficult one, and using the imagery of the righteous founders does not help the debate. Remember that they lived in a different time, where it would have been much more harder, and the scale would have been much lesser, of terrorist acts that can be carried out. I'm not saying either way is better, just that its not a simple choice, and there might be other choice as well.Or maybe, we can root out terrorism by bringing progress to the entire human race. OK, but then you still have to deal with domestic terrorism: sniper shootouts, school massacres etc. done by Citizens. How can that be prevented?One has to give credit to the US govt.'s efforts though: not a single case of terrorism on US soil after 9/11. That's pretty impressive.
