Freedom does not necessarily mean the ability to do what you want. But is a responsibility to maintain the lives of your family, and your country.
We are responsible for our own safety, and well being. Don't think that this means rushing out and joining the Marines. It means being accountable for your actions, by conserving resources and being aware of what is going on around you. This is important for the security and continued safety of family and friends, do not stop living, do the things that you did before 911 just be more aware and thoughtful. When the dog barks don't just holler "shut up" but go check it out.

Remember that we are Americans, or British, or whatever first, and then whatever group second.
