" I don't think that the American people actually care about forking over their civil liberties in the name of national security."
The sad thing is that 90% of the people in this country dont know what there civil rights are, and because of that the police or whoever can trick* the average American into forfeiting those rights without their knowledge. It is a sad thing when the people that are passing our laws take advantage of this.
This is why representative government just doesnt work. When I elect a politician (mostly based on who slings the least crap) I have no idea wheather he gives a rats diseased ass about my rights. Go Here for a fix. Give them support or you are a bad american, you arent a bad american are you?
*an example of this crooked corrupt trickery is when police say things like "mind if I take a look inside" instead of "do you consent to a search of your house" because most people dont know that they can even deny a search
The idea is that if it has a name like Patriot Act people wont see it as being the same old silly government taking away the same old silly civil rights
Why not just say "pweease give me attention im so lonely ill be as obnoxious as i can just so people will talk to me"
