We want our government to protect us, to make sure something like 9/11 never happens again. We quickly moved to give law enforcement more power to do this. But that now begs the question, did we move to fast? Did we give too much power away? I don't have the answer. ↗

They kept me in short pants as long as they could, until they were shaving the hair on my legs because it was beginning to photograph. ↗
