But only to a point. One can compromise a bit of their freedom for some important purpose and come off not much the worse for it, but it never stops there now does it. Next year or next legislative session they will be asked to compromise away a little bit more, then a little more, then a little more, ad infinitum until it's gone completely.

At some point one has to say "no more compromise" or loose it all and I think we're about there on many of our societies issues.
