This type of rational upsets me, as well. It's basically stating that the government has my best interests at heart, and my government can do no
wrong. It is a fool hardy stance to take.
If we allow the government to start peeling away our liberties, where does it end? It ends in either a dictatorship or a totalitarian government.
I just wish people wouldn't treat something as precious as our basic human rights and freedoms so lightly.
Just my two-cents.
