Social Issue: Freedom and Security
Thesis:
This has been a widely discussed and debated topic in the United States for years.
Should we enjoy freedom but run the risk of being unsafe or should the government protect us but also restrict us for the sake of other citizens’ protection? What we, as Americans, often overlook is the fact that this not necessarily an uncompromisable issue. Why can’t we have both security and freedom?
Reasons:
• Without any freedom at all, we would not be able to enjoy our lives as citizens.
• Freedom secures individual security from cruel and unusual punishment, as stated in the Bill of Rights.
• On national level, freedom could possibly jeopardize overall security.

Democracies have been found incompatible with personal security or the rights of property; and in general, been as short in their lives.
James Madison
Safety and security do not just happen, they are the result of collective consensus and public investment. We owe our children, the most vulnerable citizens in our society, a life free of violence and fear.
We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.
