I'm a fairly passive person. I go with the flow about a lot of things and don't really care about making any sort of politcial statements (i keep them mostly to myself.) So when asked if i would give up my civil liberties, i probably would. In the world we live in today, no one is always going to be happy. there is always going to be at least one group of people who is upset with someone or something. If i could give up my civil liberties in order to have some sort of peace with people, then so be it. To me it's just as satifying to think to myself about how stupid some peoples opinions are beucase whether or not i say anything at all, their minds are not going to be changed.
