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.

Republicans feel that taxes should be minimal. They largely believe that the government should be minimal to reduce the amount of money needed.
Yes, they had 2 parties. The National Republicans and the Democratic Republicans
