You know, even if they hadn't passed this I'd never be stupid enough to believe they weren't spying on me. Only an idiot would think they would stop that. That isn't what pisses me off though. What infuriates me is the fucking cocksucking slut bastards called it the USA Freedom Act. Of all the unmitigated gall! I hope the ass-eaters catch a disease that rots their crotches and grows their assholes shut. Freedom Act my hairy ass. That's like the "People's" Republic of China they seek to emulate.
The NSA exists to counter exterior threats. It is accepted that sometimes there are black ops that occur in that environment. This has always been so. Things that never see the light of day because of the threat level. They are viewed by POTUS and top leaders in Congress. This has been accepted because taking action against clandestine foreign entities is generally accepted by the public at large. When they started turning those tactics to use against the American public is when the outrage started.
While true they have always done illegal stuff they can only use that kind of stuff certain ways and for certain purposes. By removing the legality of these actions the actions will not end but they wont be able to use them for anything but actual terrorism. The war on terror will now be a behind the scenes covert kind of war and they'll have to stop using those same tactics for regular crime. Spies never really stop spying or they wouldn't be spies.
He'll never get the Republican nomination. Not a chance in hell. The old guard in the party would rather have Hillary Clinton than Rand Paul. She's less of a threat to them.
There were as many as 1240 people killed by the police in the US last year. Total. That's all killings of any kind. In the line of duty or not. Justified or not.
I'm more than 10 times more likely to get killed by the general public than by a cop. If I was the paranoid kind I'd wear a bullet proof vest to the supermarket. As a bonus, if I don't pull a gun on them then my chances of getting offed by the cops drops drastically. All I have to worry about are the handful of rogue cops roaming around blowing up pressure cookers. Come to think of it though.....they didn't kill anyone either.
What's strange about it....well now that you mention it the truth is often stranger than fiction. Who would have thought blowing up a pressure cooker in someones car would equate to chopping people's heads off?
I had a facebook account up until 3 years ago. It got to be so obnoxious and constant source of Spam that I deleted it. The only thing I've ever found to be a bigger waste of time than playing Solitaire.

She didn't get her cut.

But think how much fun having Bill as first spouse will be!
No one is running against her.
Actually that would be ignorance in action to be technical. But close enough for slashdot.
At least now the pretense will be gone.
It's a dirty job but someone has to do it.
Mine too. He ain't perfect but he's the best bet in town.
No need. She's got the Democratic nomination already.
No, I'm amiga3d.
Actually it's a lot smaller. Only 28 gauge if I remember correctly.

Maybe since Reagan.
You don't really believe you're anonymous to the NSA do you? The seeing eye is watching you.
He's not an asshole, he's a dick. Easy mistake to make since dicks are very near assholes.

The very worst of it should be gone after this weekend. If so I'll celebrate. It's a victory even if the war isn't quite over.

Keep that tinfoil hat tight dude. Your brain's getting blasted by the rays.

The last year I could get stats for murder in general was 2013. The total murders in the US was 16,121.

Don't be paranoid.

I can't see any reason to live in fear. If I obey the law I'll probably never have a problem.
Didn't you hear? The Fracking in the US caused the Volcano to erupt.
