Wouldn't you need a finding that this was in fact the case before taking action on it?

Legally, this law makes sense and provides cover for the administration’s actions. However, I am torn about this because I am truly frightened over the interpretatation of this law, especially with our current administration’s mind set. Who is to say that you or I could not be declared a terrorist and enemy of the state? What if (heaven forbid) a Freeper loses his mind and attacks the US? Could we not be listed as known associates because we are members of the same ‘organization’? I know this is a stretch, but when has this administration not twisted the law to get their way? I would certainly want due process to sort out the conflict.
