Politically (and simplistically) speaking, the security equation is viewed as:

"Security * Rights = c ( constant)"

The more rights individual has; the less security. This statement is arguable and syllogistic, but it's pretty accepted.

That said, I think it's a valid generalization that Democrats would sacrifice more security in order to maintain civil and constitutional rights, and more republicans would opt for some limited abrogation of rights in favor of security.

This IS a very wide generalization, however.
