Outsiders come to your village and force you to leave you home. If you resist, you know you will be imprisoned or killed. The outsiders take over your home and land and state you will never be allowed to return. What will you do?
A foreign army comes to your town. They randomly enter houses. They always carry guns. How safe do you feel?
Your leader says you must surrender your freedoms for the sake of security. He paints a portrait of evildoers, dark and swarthy, with foreign accents, who are waiting to kill you and eat your children. In order to protect you, the government may ask you to put up with certain inconveniences and intrusions on your privacy. Do you comply?
Sometimes it helps to look at situations from another point of view.
