Nodbugger | smwScott...you are wrong on so many levels.
Yes the government can do it. But your local police department cannot. They don't have the resources to do it. They still need permission to do this. They just don't need written permission. Instead o going to court they can do a simple phone call.
And one American has been arrested using the patriot act (even though he woul have been arested either way) and is being charged now.
So it does not strip away rights. Only criminals get their rights taken away.

Well, it does strip away peoples rights, and it appears to be the first step to a more oppressive government. The constitution written in a way to prevent this kind of abuse from taking place, the Patriot Act is in direct violation of the constitution. Everything about it is against what this country stands for. People can be taken and jailed without trial or even being officially arrested. Things are already out of hand and they're getting worse, it always starts out fairly tame, but it will grow and continue unless someone puts a stop to it.
