Bush is universally despised but when it comes to guns the policies of his reign- Secret lists, warrantless searches, extra-legal detention, restriction of free speech and other civil rights violations- suddenly are palatable and reasonable.

I have to stand with Mr Franklin on this one, security and freedom are not mutually exclusive.
