56% of the Bulgarian citizens believe that legislative acts such as the Counter-Terrorism Act are rather useful, a public opinion survey made by Gallup International Balkan between July 14 and 19 shows. 32% of the surveyed nationals said that similar acts rather restrain the rights of the citizens. The younger respondents are more sensitive on topics such as freedom and the elderly people are more sensitive on issues such as order protection. According to the sociologists, most Bulgarian citizens are inclined to delegate the authorities the right to enforce the law in a radical manner, although they do not feel strong respect to the authorities.
