  • We discussed his motivations and the concerns of the State.
  • We watched some of the video to better understand who this person is and what the motives were.

Considerations
  • In a larger context of security vs. privacy and freedoms, the question that the United States citizens is asking is one that relates to how much freedom should the people give up in order to secure safety.
  • The American forefathers recognized the dangers of tyranny, and were generally very strongly in favor of individual freedoms and limitations on government. However, as the world changes, so do the challenges that we face as a nation.
