You Can't Protect Freedom By Abolishing Freedom

The government cannot protect our freedom by taking away our freedom. It cannot shield us from harm (real or imagined) by censoring the truth and ripping away our privacy. It cannot “battle” communists by acting just like the communists. It cannot protect us from corporate fraud by mandating the use of their fraudulent products. The government is supposed to follow the law, which is the U.S. Constitution, not ignore it and give it lip service only when it's politically convenient. The Bill of Rights is not a joke. Those rights precede the government itself, and do not come from them...
