ponyboy, what civil liberties were lost when we had 3,000 missiles aimed at US cities or during WW2, all of them or none of them?

---i can't answer that dobs... and that's old news...
... we live in a different world were we can communicate on-the-fly... where info moves IMMEDIATELY...
... I can't compare the world we live in now to even 20 years ago... the cold war is gone...
... we're not faced w/just a single political giant on the other side (Russia)...
... now it's a terror cell here... a training camp there... not in ONE specific politically unified realm/country... but an absolute UNKNOWN number of RELIGIOUSLY DRIVEN MILITANTS...
... hiding... here and there... ready to plant a lil bomb here... and blow up a bus over there...... you cannot compare the state of our World to 20 years ago and expect to glean anything useful to apply to today's issue...
... our world doesn't fit that old playbook....
... this 'threat' comes from one of 'faith'... not one of political desire.
