It goes against everything America was founded for.
Sure, it might save lives. Maybe it does, maybe it doesn't. But there are a lot of things that we could do in America to save lives that completely infringe upon our liberties that the country's founding was based upon. We could ban guns. We could give the death penalty to accused murderers without a trial. In fact, we could lock up anybody who so much as hits someone just IN CASE they kill anyone, because they have violent tendencies. But is that fair? No. Is it American? Definitely not.
I love it when people consider themselves oh so patriotic, yet their vision of America goes completely against what this country was founded to be. That's not patriotism.
