"This kind of mission creep could easily extend to going after anti-abortionists."

One of the first EOs of the new Hillary administration. After all, they're "terrorizing" all those women seeking 'health care'. Some folks can't see past the end of their nose when it comes to things like this. If they, themseves, haven't been locked up under a new law, they don't see a problem with it or understand that problems can happen in the future. The other danger here as that 'terrorism' becomes a diluted, meaningless concept. When everone's a terrorist, being a terrorist a'int so bad. People using passenger aircraft as missiles or who use trucks as bomb delivery tools are terrorists. People who strap bombs on their chests and walk into the most heavily populated place they can find are terrorists.

A strip club owner with shady financial dealings is not a terrorist; nor is some idiot who hears about shining lasers up at airplanes on the news and decides to try it out for himself.

The money laundering laws included in the Patriot act are not, and were not intended, to be used only against terrorists.

If you had some knowledge of the Patriot act, I hope you could comment more intelligently.
