Clearly the government believes they should decide, not the country,
Unfortunately, we have politicians and judges who don’t give a damn about the Constitution.
Someone with good editing tools needs to make a NSA Warrant showing EVERYONE as the target of the NSA search warrant.
We should err on the side of privacy, accept that we live on the brink of annihilation, and destroy Muslims at every opportunity and with great brutality. Allah’s servants should understand only that to enrage the US is to disappear in a flash and a haze of radioactive dust, and that the US will be enraged at the least slight, let alone acts of terrorism. We should not give up being a free society when the means exist to cause the extinction of those who would kill us, along with their sympathizers, and those who would seek revenge on their behalf.
BTTT!!!!
Very very well said
It is our elected “representatives” that are legislating and funding every infraction against our Constitutional rights.
The problem with the logic of that position is that it implies that the Constitution is the source of man's rights, which it is not. The Constitution doesn't give anyone any rights, it only restricts the government's powers to infringe upon those rights which already exist. The source of all men's rights is not the people, the government, or the Constitution, it is God. It is generally held that "rights" are given by God to all men not just Americans. This is the principle of Natural Law upon which this country and the Constitution are based, and this principle is openly declared in the the Declaration of Independence which says:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights..."
Privileges of US citizens (e.g. voting etc.) certainly can be restricted to Americans because they are granted by law. Rights, however, cannot be restricted, because they are universally given to all men by their Creator.
I would go so far to say that anyone that came to the U.S. illegally is at war with the U.S. and the citizens, as well. But that is just me.
Thank you!
It amazes me that so many folk, supposedly knowledgeable about our society, blow it by conflating rights with privileges.

Revolt is coming.
The 2nd protects the other 9.
Profiling would work.
The current administration isn’t as concerned with possible terrorists as they are about conservatives. So using the excuse to “keep us safe”, they are going after US.
“What is the proper balance between privacy and security?”
The second amendment.
” They’re not collecting all this info to fight terrorists. They’re collecting it to use against US!”
Exactly!
