Very true, and I think is great that Garry here is including a little historical perspective on this. Civil liberties are something that have to be fought for by every generation. It may be a battle that can never be won completely, but if you stop fighting it you always lose your freedoms one by one. That said, this White House petition makes me nervous since we still don't know the extent of what Snowden leaked.
