Shouldn't there be more than one option in a poll? ;)

"... and you can only do that if you change our ideas about what the role of government ought to be."

Lol.

Well, so far so good. I guess those ignorant bigots are not much of a problem here.

This is almost as lopsided as the poll I started about "Does America Run an Honest Money System"...

I am guessing that this poll is less about which choice the user picks, and more about whether a user is brave enough to associate his or her actual name/username with the given choice. :D

Hmm. Well at least this poll is private. However that doesnt mean a whole hell of a lot. The current score is 0 - 48, and I voted. Take a wild guess as to which one I voted for. I'll give you three chances, but the first two you can just forget about...

Well, there you have it. ;)

I chose "terrorism", because I read choice #1 as terrorism in the 'generic' sense, and the terrorism associated with factions of radical Islam as merely one subset of same.

Then, since terrorism is perpetrated by both radical Islam and the (US) government (domestically and abroad), terrorism became the more universal choice.

Oh, and I like to be "contrary". :p

Yes, but the Government's terrorism isn't even the steadiest or more prevalent threat to freedoms. It's the everyday nonsense, done without any real threat of violence, quietly, with the majority's sanction... that stuff is what strips us all of our dignity and liberty.

most of the loss of our liberty is done unilaterally through administrative agencies that create their own regulations (you can comment but THEY determine the final form and if you don't like it you have to SUE THEM....in steps their partners in crime: Judicial tyrannts (both of these are not LEGISLATIVE at all)

And those are appointed by elected officials. The point is that this portion of government is not really "terrorism," hence why I chose the Government option in the poll.

Well, lets weigh this out by way of comparison. How many people were killed by the "terrorists" (not even getting into 9/11 was an inside job, taking at as they tell it to us) in the 9/11 attack vs. how many people have been killed by police brutality?
