Opinion on Discussion-
Its seems this period (1) believed that torturing a few(maybe terrorists and aliens) for the majority was acceptable but that inconveniencing a few(profiled people)for majority was not, although it would seem that inconveniencing a few would make the torturing situation less likely.So I say give up some personal rights, if one believes in imposing torture on someone it should be OK to impose a few privacy violations.
Also, the "strong" argument that if we give up some rights all of them go, could be said for granting torture, if we let the gov. do that to aliens couldn't the gov. then increase that allowance to include citizens? Thus I say that argument is irrelevant.

Madison,

I don't have my book with me to tell you exactly where you stop. You should definitely know about all of Jefferson's presidency by page 234.
