is qui libertatem pro securitate sacrificat, neutribus dignus est Explanation: Dear Brandon, this is easier to translate than the Ghandi :) Hope it helps. I have changed the phrase to singular (he who..deserves neither), more typical in Latin. Is qui: he who libertatem (acc) pro securitate (abl) sacrificat: sacrifices freedom for security neutribus (abl) : neither dignus est: deserves. Dignus est + abl is the Latin construction for "he deserves...". "Neither" is "neuter", but neutribus (abl, because of the aforementioned construction, and plural, since we are talking about TWO thing, freedom and security). I am exhausted!!!
