I just don't agree with extreme views on either side that
affect my rights and have little or no effect on the problems they try
to
correct.

...of course, and how could it be different? Myself, I am willing to
accept some amounts of extremism, temporarily, *if* it looks like a
problem could be solved with it - otherwise, it is usually far better
to build a consensus and, as far as possible, ignore the outliers.

I understand but I'm not willing to budge on any aspect of my freedom as
it's laid out in the Bill of Right or in our Constitution. I don't believe
in security over freedom because it doesn't work and it ultimately opens the
door to further erosion of our rights.

Fair enough, and I agree. You must have some real concerns with the
Patriot Act and our current leadership, then, because I sure do,
vis-a-vis the Bill of Rights. The potential exists to make life quite
a bit more obnoxious under that Act.
