We definitely don't want to give up freedom, but let's remember that terrorists aren't doing what they do because they "hate our freedom" (as arguments often suggest they do). There are far more complicated socio-economic and geo-political reasons than that, and I think it does the entire issue a disservice to suggest it's that simplistic.

Additionally, to the contributor who made the point about "liberal stupidity," please remember to keep it civil. This is an issue that can inspire passionate debate, but that doesn't mean we should be crossing the line into disrespect. Thanks.
