Keep on working on it, and don't forget to restate the question when answering the short answers!


PLN #4

"They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -Benjamin Franklin, 1759

This quote is the quote that PLN #4 will be answering to. Therefore, the summary will be relatively short (4-6 sentences) and the response will not be incredibly long either. Here are the notes taken for the summary:

Simplified version of quote:
People who give up rights to be safe don’t deserve rights or safety

  6. 6.     Incremental changes –give away a lot in the long run (ex: at airports, full body scans)

     No (if you don't agree with quote):

  1. 1.     If you’re dead, what’s the point of rights, need to be safe
  2. 2.     Difference between moderate to extreme safety measure
