105. Uh...
Edited on Thu Aug-17-06 02:34 PM by ryanus
I guess everyone misunderstood my point. I am not saying I am for warrantless tapping. The complete opposite. I was wondering how the people's opinion on stuff like this would change if there was an event that was claimed to have happened because the feds couldn't do things like warrantless tapping. Like a nuke goes off and the feds say, "oh this happened because we coudln't do warrantless taps." And then the people say, "we don't care about the bill of rights anymore. Tap us, search us, detain us. Do whatever you want to prevent this from happeneing again. We don't care about our rights anymore." That is my fear.

I only included the FreeRepublic quote because I thought it demonstrated that maybe people are all ready going in that direction, ie, that the constitution gives us so many rights it's actually dangerous.

Yikes people. Read.
