Sometimes people forget that whole "security of person" aspect of freedom. How is privacy from government any less laudible a goal than reasonable taxation? It seems that the founding fathers wanted a little of both.
It's always interesting when neo-conservatives start screaming about the Constitution and their rights, except when it comes to the fundamental right of privacy.

This is why I choose to not CHOOSE a party. They're all friggin criminals, it's just who do you trust LESS?!? Me getting my panties all up in a wad won't fix it...so why worry myself. The system will fail on its own, and I just need enough ammo to survive the zombie apocalypse
(you know I know better....but you also realize this ain't my first rodeo when it comes to arguing on a forum sometimes it's more fun to lob a grenade in a thread and run watching the fallout from the bunker)

Admittedly I've been known to lob the odd virtual grenade into the room, then shut the door behind me too.
