Boogeyman, boogeyman. There’s always a Boogeyman we must fear.
I am no fan of Hell Fire Franklin, but will let google expound:
“‘Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety,’ is a famous quote often attributed to Benjamin Franklin, highlighting that sacrificing fundamental freedoms for security often results in losing both. It warns against trading long-term rights for immediate peace, widely cited in debates regarding government surveillance, pandemics, and civil liberties.”
Man on the street might put it like this: “Get your nose out of our lives and leave us the hell alone.”
Will they ever run out of Boogeymen?
