"We have no option but to defend america and in doing so if we have to forgo some rights then so be it.".............No damned way. I ain't given up not one damned right that blood was used to pay for !. We will defend america but we won't give up any rights in doing so (PERIOD)(.)

I voted to pull back

"We will defend america but we won't give up any rights in doing so (PERIOD)(.)" If it were an ideal world i would have agreed with you!!! But unfortunately it's a real world... You can't have it both ways!! One can't effectively fight terrorism at home without forgoing some rights!! I agree that some of the provisions of the patriot act needs careful review....But overall it's a good act which forms an esential element in fighting terror...... I know quite a few immigrants and if they don't feel threatened by this act , then can't really understand why should you ??? I agree that the patriot act isn't the only way of fighting terror but nevertheless its a useful and necessary tool in the hands of the govt. to deal with these scumbags... After all 9-11 wasn't the first terrorist attack on american soil and unfortunately it ain't gonna be the last!!!!( hope i am wrong!) If you are a true patriot, you should put your country first for a change, rather than putting your own rights on top of everything else!!!!
