[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 174118, member: 2189"] Patriot Act is loved, hated, misunderstood or met with "who cares, give me another beer" but it depends on your political views where you stand. Some argue that it's because of the Patriot Act that we've not seen any further acts since 911 within the US and whether that is the reason or not I'm sure we all hope that claim can continue on whether it be true or not. That said, this past week the DOJ and the FBI admitted more abuses by the FBI were found and that this was made public when announced by the US Attorney General. Gonzales, Mueller admit FBI broke law - Yahoo! News I believe the words used were "broke the law" which would suggest some real serious offenses took place. Time and more detail may or may not bear this out. This also is not the first time in recent for this to happen as something similar took place in 2005' as seen in this Washington Post story. [URL='http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/23/AR2005102301352.html']FBI Papers Indicate Intelligence Violations[/URL] Many people have expressed concerns about the Patriot Act and the potential for abuse and many of those same people have been blown off under various political veils of opportunity. The vast majority of common sense thinking people on all sides of the issue agree that the ability for the various law enforcement agencies to stay ahead of these loonies is important but at the same time it's also important that they not trample and walk over and set legal precedent for future ramifications the very essense of what is the American system of liberty for each and every citizen out there.
