What has the Patriot act done to affect your freedom?Had any jackbooted thugs knocking at your door?

"Really Mr. Adams, had any redcoated thugs knocking at your door?"

I have this crazy idea that the government could take a lot of rights away from us, if it did it a little at a time, rather than all at once. I have an even crazier idea that calling it the PATRIOT act was a cynical marketing stunt.

When someone is fifty pounds overweight, and chowing down at Burger King, do you say, "What have your unhealthy habits done to hurt you? Had any heart attacks?" Maybe he never will, but it makes sense to be prudent.
