Dissent Is Not Un-American

This past December I was walking by City Lights bookstore, the first all-paperback bookstore (books for the people, founded in 1953 by Lawrence Ferlinghetti) and noticed it had hung these posters to remind us what this country was founded for. They read: "Dissent Is Not Un-American"...
Those willing to give up a little liberty for a little security deserve neither security nor liberty.
-- Benjamin Franklin
