Gee, it's hard to decide. You can have the government buy your land without your consent, or you can be declared an enemy combantant and lose all your rights.

Oh yeah, the patriot act has been so terrible. What exactly has it done that has been bad?

The library and bookstore provision. Our government actually thinks terrorists will go into one and take out a book on bomb-making! (There probably aren't any anyway).

Therefore I think this part of the Patriot Act is intended to let big (conservative) government keep tabs on what innocent citizens are reading, since they fear a citizenry that questions things. Just look at all of Bush's staged "town-hall meetings" where everyone is required to love the President and anyone else is litteraly hustled out by goons.

Statesrights seems to have abandoned the effort of actually typing arguments for the convenience and ease of the eye-roll.

Where's that good ole American work ethic, States?
