Goes back farther than 9/11. However most Conservatives supported the Patriot Act. Personally i was silent. Didn’t know what to think. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

Agree... figured it would be ‘ok’ if handled correctly BUT, deep down, knew ‘they’ would screw it up.

Of course all of ‘US’ Conservatives that were for it would have been screaming bloody murder if Clinton or Gore or Kerry or BO would have come up with it.

Seems we have the seem result...We worry more about PC than actual safety, the whole ‘movement’ just another GIANT Government Boondoggle.

Yes it does go back farther than 9/11. See the movie “Serpico”. However, since 9/11 it has accelerated dramatically, and legislatures don’t have the cojones to put a real leash on these steroid-enhanced thugs.
