I am sure they need the warrants but as with everything sometimes that does not happen.
I mean exactly what i said. Tracking some people over others. Your run of the mill drug user, then no. Tracking a drug dealer, sure. Tracking someone with terrorists ties, sure. Tracking your average muslim, no.
I'm going to bed shortly, so I may not answer tonight, but I must disagree with you.
One, I got the impression from the article that warrants were not needed.
Two, Don't you think that innocent until proven guilty is an ideal that we here in America still want to live by?

My understanding is that warrants are needed to track. Warrants are needed to listen in on phones.
Yes, i believe in innocent until proven guilty. Why do you think they are being tracked or listened in on?

Why for no other reason than the fact that he has an Arabic sounding name of course.
The FBI has been using trackers for a very long time...and long before the patriot act.
But, I did not say that tracking began because of the Patriot Act. I said, that the Patriot Act was one of the things that turned me against the Republicans. When tracking began has nothing to do with that. President Bush's deliberate attempts to shred the Constitution were what drove me out of the party. The Patriot Act was one of those attempts.

So now you must hate those despicable Democrats and Obama, after all they have not only kept the Patriot act but sought to broaden Government powers. I guess you can not vote for anyone.
You don't know me very well do you?
I have despised the Democrats for much longer than I have despised the Republicans.
Last election was very difficult for me. I chose to vote third party because the only thing the two major parties offered us was SHIT.
