Quite the contrary. Suicide ganking in the name of jihad/allah/whatever should happen exclusively in a virtual setting. --- Don't put your trust in revolutions. They always come around again. That's why they're called revolutions. People die, and nothing changes. |

Put it this way, would you feel the same way if your father/mother etc was killed by a jihadi terrorist?

"Anyone who trades liberty for security deserves neither liberty nor security" (Do you even know who said this?)
OOOO, I know Ben Franklin. Do I get the cookie?
Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.
With the information thus far available the issue of authorship of the statement is not yet definitely resolved, but the evidence indicates it was very likely Franklin, who in the Poor Richard's Almanack of 1738 is known to have written a similar proverb: "Sell not virtue to purchase wealth, nor Liberty to purchase power."
Many paraphrased variants derived from this saying have arisen and have usually been incorrectly attributed to Franklin.
