How is it spying on 'you' when they only monitor calls incoming from terrorists overseas?
Terrorists from overseas have never placed a phone call to U.S. Citizens which have U.S. constitutional due process rights?
How exactly is their listening to terrorists calls infringe on my first amendment rights?
What about the PATRIOT Act:
Allows for the warrantless searches of the library and book store records of American citizens- in violation of the 4th Amendment.
The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court operates outside of the normal federal court system and operates in secret; its warrants are not public record. On May 17, 2002 this court released an opinion declaring that the FBI and Justice Department had supplied erroneous information to the court in more than 75 applications for search warrants and wiretaps And on December 16, 2005 the New York Times reported that the GWB Administration had been conducting surveillance operations against U.S. citizens without the knowledge of this the FISC since 2002. On December 20, 2005 James Robertson, a judge on the FISC resigned, apparently to protest GWB policy.
So dont try to tell me that GWB has not, or will not violate the rights of American citizens. Because he has.
And what happens if the federal government can go to a secret court and supply false information in order to monitor the activities of certain people and an administration controlled by one political party submits false information to the court about the opposing political party and thus is allowed to put that opposing political party under surveillance? If you dont have a problem with such a possible scenario, you area an absolute fool.
How are my 4th amendment rights violated?
Do you worry only about actual violations of your rights? Does the potential for their violation mean nothing to you?
