A very opened end question;

Which would you rather be?

1) Free
2) Safe

If you care too, we would all enjoy reading your comments.

    I'd love to hear people's opinions as well, but this is not the forum for that discussion. :#

    Never mentioned politics or any of that stuff. Yet some of you answered the question w/o saying so. I'll put you down as "safe"

    That's what I was expecting too. :'(

    Free, that is the key to life. Free to choose which ever coin I can afford to have. Free to choose how safe I want my coins to be. Free to not be "safe" and risk it all.

    Actually you can have both depending on where you are you may have neither.

    I agree duece and it has been my experience that the ones that spout out about freedom the most...never served. All during the GWOT “ we need to do this and we need to do that.” 9 times out of 10 when asked “who were you with,” the answer came back an unsurprising ...never served. Has that been your experience as well?

    I do not agree with the premise of the OP.

    My choice would be both; and the human species should strive to obtain and maintain both.
