Actually, the full and correct quote is:

“They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” ”Those Who Sacrifice Liberty For Security Deserve Neither.” ”He who would trade liberty for some temporary security, deserves neither liberty nor security.”

Was old Ben anticipating people who say things like this:

"IF he builds that wall, and STOPS terrorist muslims, and criminal Hispanics from coming to America, IU'm all for declaring him KING...He will have done MORE than any other President has done since WW II!!!!!"

and this:

"A BENEVOLENT DICTATOR that will "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN".... we desperately NEED one, especially one that will CANCEL all of the Manchurian muslim's Unconstitutional E.O.'s!!!!!"

Building a wall is NOT giving up freedom. Please read the comments. Someone is willing to give up their freedom to make someone a dictator or king. Didn't we fight a war to get rid of a king?

Not only would it help stem the flow of illegal aliens and terrorists, it would also help in stemming the flow of drugs into the country.

No worries, King Obama will be gone shortly.

Then why did you list building the wall as one of your examples?

People are just getting frustrated that the two parties who run this country have become so divisive and incapable of working out their problems. So they think about the alternative, which is how the majority of the world has always been governed. It's easier (as long as you're on the dictator's good side) and at least things get done.

It is really up to the Democrats and Republicans to school their extremist fringes, and not the other way around. I still believe there are moderates and common sense thinkers in this country who would have no problem voting for a "middle of the roader." The candidates are just afraid to seem like one.
 
People here honestly believe that they're going to elect Trump president and a month later, magically, a border wall will appear, paid for by Mexico.
No one believes it will take only a month, and it won't be magical. Some construction companies will be involved. No magic is required to build something as basic as a wall.

Shortbus, you are as stupid as a doorknob.

What freedom do we give up by building a wall?

So then, you're just a retard flinging shit with no actual idea of WHAT the words you cut and paste from the Soros hate sites actually mean. :thup:

It is very odd that you say that.....

Words like:
"King"
"Dear Leader"
"Great One"
"Messiah"
Are only used by RWrs here. The correct term for Obama is PRESIDENT Obama. You know, the duly elected (twice) PRESIDENT of the United States.

Giving up freedom for safety will "help stem the flow of illegal aliens and terrorists"?
Declaring Trump King will "help in stemming the flow of drugs into the country"?

What freedom will Americans be giving up by securing their own border?
