What many people fail to realize, is that it doesn't matter what political party you are part of. If you look at and read history, former President Bush jr, used fear to rush the Patriot Act through Comgress. It virtually shredded the entire Bill of Rights, including the 4th amendment. Many members of a Congress, both Republican and Democrat, signed in into law without even reading it. However, there was and still is a limitation in that Act, it was designed to only last 4 years. Obama has managed to sly past the people, getting it resigned twice. It has now lasted 3 times longer than the Act was ever designed to do. In addition to petitions, peoples need to stand up, speak out, and politely tell their Senators and Respresentatives, to demand they refuse to sign the Patriot Act the next time the time. Use the voice given to you by the Constitution. Express to your members of Congress, that you have seen to value in blatant violations of personal privacy, has ever done anything to stop or prevent any form of terrorism. What it has done, is give intelligence agencies the ability to create a massive nationwide database to spy on our own people. It has also cost us a lot in taxes. The taxes spent on our bloated defense and spying programs, could be much better spent to fix broken sidewalks, leaking sewer systems, inefficient outdated electrical grids full of blackouts, education for our children, and spent on invention and innovation that our country used to pride ourselves on. Please, email, and call your Senators and Representatives. Please, express your displeasure in wasted money that accomplishes nothing, and prevents money being available for the major infrastructure problems we have.REPORT COMMENTS

When did it change from "Of the people, by the people ... " to "screw the people?" The Gettysburg Address, in this statement describing in a general way our form of government, has not been rewritten. Nor has the Constitution, which defines in more detail this principle, been amended to remove this principle. The violation of the federal government in overriding our fourth amendment rights to privacy is not "Of the people ..." The Fourth Amendment must be preserved, recognized and honored by all government agencies. Get the TSA, NSA and FBI out of our privacy!REPORT COMMENTS

Please find another way to "reduce crime". This is barbaric, horrific and unfortunately, resembles something out of a science fiction novel.REPORT COMMENTS

Has our freedom become null and void and if not, who is acting like it is gone? Are we allowing it to be redefined as just an outdated whim that has outlasted it's usefulness! Is there anyone left for freedom who wants to preserve it?REPORT COMMENTS
