Depends on your definition of "Liberty".

If mohammed mah-hat-ma-coat decides that it's his will to blow up infidels on the streets of the non-believers capital city then liberty can go **** itself - We need security in any society.

Guess it depends who's in charge of Security and what their agenda is

Very perspicacious man. Never give up any bit of liberty, it does not come back.
