who sacrifices freedom for security is neither free‚ nor secure. If you really think about it‚ this quote makes you think “are we really safe in this country?” All the attacks we have witness or suffered‚ have we reached the point where we should sacrifice our FREEDOM?

school curriculum is just not enough to prepare students for the real world. Our schools have become too old-fashioned. Today‚ success in the real world is not about memorizing the periodic table or the quadratic equation.
