I would say that I am an advocate of Civil Rights. That is to say that I support the Bill of Rights, and those principles that make up our American way of life. I suppose that the big question is how we deal with people who are not American Citizens. Be it that we won’t know the citizenship of the average joe walking down the street, it would make sense to treat everyone the same, according to our Laws and Customs. But can we differentiate between citizendry and foreign nationals? I’m not sure that we have a caveat that says, these laws only apply to those who are US Citizens. I would tend to believe that it isn’t our way… at least it hasn’t been our way for over 200 years. Even in the face of countries that we have been at war with, we have not relinquished our hold of civil rights for both ourselves and those from far away lands.

Once again, I say that we need to protect ourselves from those who would do us harm. The enemy is not within, and the more we look inward, the less chance we have of protecting ourself from the enemies out there.
