Tear it apart and start over. Fire all those perverts who put their hands on us. Remember that the 911 attackers were allowed to bring box cutters on the plane.

“Before the Patriot Act, the FBI would have been stymied in conducting a counterterrorism investigation involving a now infamous American agent of a foreign power.”

Bullcrap.

Yes, I agree with the author that we need to renew the star Chamber Act. But if we are going to do so, it needs changes.

Lies to obtain a warrant related to a US citizen should be a felony punishable with a mandatory 25-year sentence, up to life imprisonment, as well as loss of all federal benefits including pensions.

Negligence either in obtaining a warrant or by the judge ruling on a warrant should be a felony punishable by a five-year sentence and loss of federal benefits, pensions included.

If FISA is renewed without changes, kiss whatever is left of the Republic goodbye.

"Renew the Patriot Act or Risk Another 9/11"

That sounds a lot like:"Renew the fig leaf that lets us surveil American citizens under the color of law or we'll have more people killed".

Or: "Nice business you have there. Be a shame if it burned down because you had no 'protection'".

Unless these criminals in our government are prosecuted for violating the provisions of the Patriot act the Act should killed.

Why give these low lifes the ability to spy on citizens and destroy their lives by giving them government facilities,equipment and information to do so?

Kill the Patriot Act.

Hillary, Obama, and Comey (et. al.) are responsible for what Trump does too the Patriot Act. Their behavior has been vicious.

No thanks. Deep state already has too much power. Even with the Patriot Act, all they ever did was go after pathetic skinheads, but completely ignored, or actively gave a pass to, jihadis entering the country.

Let it die an ignoble death.

I’ve read the legislation and found most of it quite reasonable, while not understanding the hype.

How many have actually read the law?

The Patriot Act brought the Globalist CIA into the domestic spying arena and culminated in a failed coup against a duly elected President of the United States.

First things first.

Prosecute and bring to trial all coup plotters, foreign and domestic.

Abolish the CIA as they have gone rogue and are made obsolete by superior NSA information gathering (why Snowden was dispatched to steal NSA tools).

The war has been and continues to be between the NSA and the CIA:

The Federal Government has demonstrated that they cannot be trusted with FISA powers. This is why we cannot have nice things.

The FISA court must either be reformed to prevent future abuse, or eliminated. The nation can not tolerate an out-of-control spy operation that is free to mess about it domestic politics. That is Banana Republic stuff, and it has to go.

Anybody who says we have to tolerate Banana Republic abuse of power is order to prevent the next 9/11 gets two raised middle fingers from me. I would prefer another 9/11, and I do not say that lightly.

When you exchange freedom for security you have neither.

Anwar al-Awlaki was born in the United States.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

His children were born in Yemen and yet there are people who believe that they are eligible to be President.
If Ted Cruz is, they are.

Fact: the majority of 9/11 hijackers entrances were blocked initially, and got special entrance permission from John Brennan.

Fact: The data that would have captured and prevented 9/11 was already there, but laws placed by the Clinton administration prevented security agencies from communicating to prevent ‘profiling’

Fact: the misuse of the patriot act has resulted in political spying, massive intrusions and violations of the 4th amendment, and destroyed innocent people’s lives.

Fact: those that sacrifice liberty for safety get neither.

It’s safer for the Republic to risk 9/11 then to keep the Patriot act. This is my opinion.

3,000 people lost their lives on 9/11, but still that is better than 297 million losing their country over a successful coup using a law like the patriot act to dig dirt on a president.

Besides, if the patriot act were really “patriotic” it would have led to the exposing of the criminal activity of Barack and Hillary, and the deep state.

We all know that it is only going to be used against patriots.

It wasn’t because there was no Patriot Act that 9-11 happened and was not interdicted. It happened because of the Wall Memo written by Jamie Goerlick who happened to be one of the 9-11 commissioners who investigated (whitewashed) 9-11. That memo barred the CIA and FBI from communicating with each other thus when Mohammed Atta was tracked by the CIA flying into the US, they were not allowed to tell the FBI to pick up the track on him and he walked out of the airport without anyone tracking him. That’s why 9-11 was not stopped.
