Well, it didn't take long...11 comments before we got to hear from the opposition to the clear intent of the Fourth Amendment:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Butch Otter did the right thing. We do ourselves no favors by eliminating that which makes our country great.

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are Life, Safety, and National Security. "

The 4th Ammendment has been pissed on by the Feds and the States for years, at least this time its for a good reason.

Theres no time to see a liberal judge and get denied a search warrant right before a nuke goes off in a major American city (and it aint gonna be in friggin Idaho).

Approriate modifications are prudent and necessary,those opposing them irresponsible at best and in league with the enemy at worse.

More Republicans voted against this stupid bill than for it,the rats were near unanimous in favor.

That ought to tell you something right there, but I doubt it willl sink in.
