Republicans feel safety > freedom…………..
so they support the patriot act in violation of the constitution’s 4th amendment.

Democrats feel safety > freedom…………….
so they support gun control in violation of the 2nd amendment.

Look, I happen to agree that safety is the number 1 priority.

I support both the patriot act and gun control.

The constitution is subject to loose interpretation.

but why do both sides accuse the other of sacrificing freedom for safety………………
when they are guilty of doing it themselves?
edit: Criminals have been caught thousands of times trying to buy guns legally.
Outlawing guns won’t stop them from getting guns entirely, but it would significantly decrease the quantity of criminals getting guns.
and it is much easier to kill someone with a gun than with a knife.
You can shoot someone from a mile away with a gun….
but with a knife, you need to get up close to the victim, in which case the victim might be able to fight back.
