Patriot Act Accounting: 763 wiretaps - five for terrorism.

     I find the sheer number of warrants requested for drug offenses rather disturbing.

It's almost as if the aim of the Patriot Act was to make it easier to search people for drugs. Bastards.

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?"

So you surely don't mind if the Obama Administration begins wiretapping all those right-wing militias in the hills of Idaho and Wyoming, right? After all, terrorism is terrorism - right?

They should wiretap your house because you are a ing nutjob.

They should eat shit and die like most authoritarians inevitably do.

I really hate the Patriot Act......we none of us Patriots before it existed?

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.

Care to dispute or explain the numbers in the initial post ?

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

Call me when a terrorist attack puts 200,000 people in danger.

Haven't you heard? A penny saved is a penny earned!
