I couldn`t care less about offending people, but I *DO* care about depriving US Citizens of their Constitutional Rights without Due Process.

IMO most Slippery Slope arguments are nonsense, but I draw the line at suspending the Constitution without Due Process, even for "just some risky minority", even just "temporarily". Guess it`s a matter of "which risk matters more to you", and I`ll take my chances on my side of the fence. Without the guarantees under the Constitution, IMO this just wouldn`t be the USA.

I know this isn`t Weimar Germany, but the "it can`t happen here" argument always seems reasonable until things go sideways. Guess I`ve just known too many people who suffered from losing their Rights...

Does anybody *really* think it was OK to inter Japanese Americans during WWII? If you do, I bet you`ve never talked with anybody who went through it.

"If on the No-Fly List you can`t own a gun" sounds reasonable, right? Well, with a little effort you can get most anybody on that list, and once somebody`s on it they don`t come off. Doesn`t matter... unless it happens to you. Wonder how Hillary feels about whom the 2nd Amendment oughta apply to.. might not be you or me.

Think it`s OK to drone-strike a US citizen without Due Process of Law? Hey, it`s some radicalized terrorist so who cares, right? "The greater good" and all that...What`s the big deal about some extra-judicial killings, works fine in Central America...or does it?

How does it go?...Eternal Vigilance is the Price of Libery. No free luch, it`s a dangerous world.
