agree with you Maverick. It;s just the Patriot Act could be used in very evil ways. All the gov't has to say is they believe you are doing something wrong and they can put you away w/o ever charging you, letting you talk to a lawyer. the patriot could be used to take our all of our civil liberties w/o ever being found guilty of a crime. that is dangerous and wrong. Communism, you make points in yuor post that generalizes what Americans are and think. You just can't do that. We are a complicated and diverse peole with many different beliefs, so don't judge us with one broad statement.

-Demosthenes
