Exactly! And what good does all this surveillance do when they couldn’t stop the Boston Marathon bombers?
And the reason they couldn’t stop the bombers is because we lack the will to throw people out of this country before they kill someone. We monitor the conversations and movements of all these people (suspected terrorists). Just kick their butts out of the country and don’t let them back in. That’s where we start. Then we can monitor their conversations in egypt, or saudia arabia, or russia, or where ever.
