I remember the passage of the Patriot Act.
I remember the warnings that we were allowing this government overreach out of fear, and that someday this could and would be used against citizens.
This is what happens when we allow our government to treat our Constitution as a set of suggestions open to interpretation and flexible with the popular opinions of modernity.
Fear is the most reliable motivation tactic of any autocratic government.
A government concerned with protecting the freedom and rights of its citizens would only use truth and transparency.
What is our government using on us?
When the only difference between the USA and the PRC is a lack of prisons/camps for political and religious dissidents....
America, I think we have a problem.
