This state is what Hobbes calls a war‚ “of every man against every other man” (Leviathan pg.106). Since there is no order in place‚ everybody can then claim anything they want

really as safe as we think it is post 9/11? Some would say 9/11 is one of the most tragic events to ever happen to this country‚ and many would agree. Looking at how things have changed in this country to prevent events like these from happening again makes it obvious to realize that this country will do whatever it takes to make the people safer. The question is are we actually safer? and are the liberties that we sacrifice worth the security that we gain? After reading through numerous articles and

I was born in 2002. Nationally a lot happened in this year because‚ this was the year following 9/11. I really wish I would’ve been alive during the time of 9/11 and could’ve remembered it.
