Sometimes that is true, but not always.
As I make clear in my book Battlefield America: The War on the American People, there is always a balancing test between individual freedoms and the communal good.
What we must figure out is how to strike a balance that allows us to protect those who need protecting without leaving us chained and in bondage to the police state.
We must find ways to mitigate against this contagion needlessly claiming any more lives and crippling any more communities, but let's not lose our heads: blindly following the path of least resistance -- acquiescing without question to whatever the government dictates -- can only lead to more misery, suffering and the erection of a totalitarian regime in which there is no balance.
