Terrorism Is The Price Of Freedom



If we have a free society the danger of individual terror attacks remains likely. We have a military to protect us in the event of war by an invading force but, it cannot stop individual terror attacks. In the end it is up to you and I to protect ourselves, family and businesses. City police are not in a position to prevent such an attack. They usually arrive after an attack is over.

The trouble with the above is that the police and politicians do not wish to relinquish their power and control over the population. As a result, we cannot own or carry handguns to protect ourselves, our family and others. Basically, we can sit and wait for an attack which may or may not come. The result is fear swelling up in the population.

Terrorism is the price of freedom. To remain a free society we must not allow the government to remove our freedoms. After 911 the Patriot  Act was passed in the United States Congress which basically voided  the Bill of Rights; in Canada new laws have been passed and are about to be passed that will void the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. We are allowing ourselves to be fenced into a "Police State" from which we will never recover.
