“It is not leadership to act based on fear,” Asarem said. “We have laws, but more important than that, we have bedrock moral principles underlying our laws. It is not acceptable for us to bring the weight and resources of the Federation or Bajoran governments down upon an individual based solely on suspicions. We cannot restrict the freedom of a man simply because we do not know who he is or where he came from, or even because of what he thinks or says. Actions are punishable by the state, and nothing more”
