Even if you are right, the Patriot Act IS a textbook example of how Americans sacrificed liberty for (perceived) security.
Surely you must realize that it chipped away, year after year, of our rights and liberties.
As for our ‘security’, the fact the borders have been wide open for 15 years, millions who overstayed visas are not pursued, and we’re fighting wars with those who had nothing to do with 9/11.
...tells me the government has little concern for our ‘safety from terrorists’.
“As for our security, the fact the borders have been wide open for 15 years, millions who overstayed visas are not pursued, and were fighting wars with those who had nothing to do with 9/11”
It would help if 1/2 the country wasn’t asleep or brainwashed.
However the political leaders known exactly what they are doing.
