Some of us more than others.

In your view are there more now that we have a Patriot Act? 

I don't think the name has anything to do with that.

It seems to have done nothing more than foster greater hatred of the government.

You do realize 5 thwarted terror attacks could mean 1,000,000 people saved right?

Where does it say 5 terror attacks were thwarted?   Where does it say 1 was?

There is no demonstrable proof it has or hasn't prevented anything......therefore, I prefer greater freedom (which no one claims the Patriot Act gives us) even if it means being a lil less safe.

By giving up our freedoms we have given the terrorists what they wanted. I'd rather die a free man than give up liberty just to live a few more years.

How exactly have we "given up our freedoms?"

I'm glad Title II of it doesn't phase you........

Or the National Security Letters in Title V
