I voted to eliminate it.

I'm leaning in that direction myself. I just haven't decided 100% yet.

I voted to cut it back. Waaaaaay back would be my choice. I think the Feds or and lawful authority should be able to ask you what country you are from and then ask you to provide proof of that.

I disagree with the Feds being able to sneak into someones home and plant bugs without a warrant. I am not involved in crime so I don't really care if they want to know what my financial status is but I do object to private businesses having to follow guidelines that in effect make them a part of the criminal justice system. If my name comes up in an investigation that's when they should be able to quickly determine if I am doing something illegal, not because a bank clerk turns me in for making multiple deposits or withdrawls.

I disagree with the Feds having the authority to hold someone without charges and not being required to notify their relatives that the person is held. Either we have the evidence or we don't that the person is a threat to the US or we don't. Arrest and charge, try and convict, or let them go.

Profiling should be legal in every investigation to determine in there is sufficient evidence to charge someone. If that occurs because you wear a turbin or your skin is lighter or darker than mine, tough shit. That's life. If a majority of whatever race commits particular crimes then there is a shadow cast upon everyone of that race. Ten years of good parenting will correct the situation not fifty years of whining.

Have you made up your mind yet?
