Quote by: RickSp So you don't mind that the NSA knows who you call and when? They might be listening in or not - you'll never know. You have nothing to hide? Do you really want the govenment making up their own minds about whther that is true or not? And all you care about is the cost? Scary. Folks like you make it way too easy for the supporters of the police state.
It appears that to the Bush administration and its supporters, the Constitution and specifically the Bill of Rights is a threat to our security. I guess Bush thinks that our freedom only helps the "evil doers". |
Rick: I am with you on this one. Not only does the government over extend its stinking nose into the private lives of citizens in this matter, but I wouldn't be surprised if everyone of our postings are scrutinized by some government functionary sitting in some windowless office passing our postings on to another paranoid government functionary that decides to continue to monitor our postings.
People who had "nothing to hide" allowed the SS to get away with all of its immoral actions in Nazi Germany. This was how Hitler came to power. People "allowed" him to ascend to power because they had nothing to hide, they could keep him on a leash, and therefore were led into a sleeping false sense of security with his NSDAP.
This crap has to stop but quick. The next thing we will know the 4th Amenedment will be history in the name of "National Security".
