Tone it down, lexietard. Upping the font and screaming like a retard doesn't really help your case.

In all those attacks, all the signs of radicalization where known to the US govt. The Tsarneav brother got back into the country supposedly because of a typo.
The Underwear Bomber attempted attack happened on a US bound plane, we were warned by the boy's father.
And we need the Patriot Act so that the FBI can share information with the CIA? Ridiculous.
Didn't all these attacks happen during Obama's watch? Originally Posted by gnadfly

Sir that wasn't necessary - I don't know who you have this agenda against me - I should have the right to speak my mind without many of you personally attacking my character and integrity. Are you now admitting that George Bush made a drastic mistake with the patriot act? Do you not think that ISIS wants to attacks us by all means and that the moment we let down our guard is the moment we will be vulnerable ? Originally Posted by wellendowed1911Fuck off with this agenda crap.

See unlike you I understand the "slippery slope" and "give and inch and they take a mile" realities. When you allow the government to begin infringing on individual rights you must be prepared to lose the rights you do care about.

You keep bringing up this 4th amendment bullshit on a document that was written many hundreds of years ago when the world was a much safer place and free of Islamic jihadist hell bent on killing Americans. Be careful what you wish for COG, but if the patriot act gets over turned and there's another major terrorist attack on our soil - the blood of anyone who gets injured or dies will be on your hands not mine.You a serious work of shit WE, your such a simpleton that you don't even understand that the freedoms you have are based on tis "worthless 200 year old document". But I guess that's understandable since you have never had to put any "skin into the game". You sit back and run your mouth and you don't even have an idea of what its really means to be an American. You don't fool anyone with your false concern for "the American people", if your god Obama was against the Patriot act and the shoe was on the other foot you would be screaming how wrong it is to be spying on americans and screaming about the evil republicans and their attempts to steal your rights. If ISIS comes I sure hope they hit Allen TX first. You talk out your ass but I remember your posts on the other board asshole so I know how full of shit you are especially when it comes to the Patriot act, I am surprised COG doesn't remember you being adamantly against it then. I guess now that it has the black seal of approval your all for it.
I hope you will be able to sleep at night and value your phone calls over the lives of your fellow Americans - you really are a sad excuse of a human being - and honestly you are not a true American you put your privacy ahead of safety God will forgive you but I can't forgive a selfish fool like yourself who puts his personal privacy over the protection of this great country that makes me sick to my stomach. You just took a shit on the grave of every American that lost their lives during 9-11. Do you have any honor ? Don't you think this is what Americans who lost their life during 9-11 - they don't want ever want this happen to again. Originally Posted by wellendowed1911

Honestly, who the fuck cares if the government is spying on you? Why do you care if some nitwit in washington is aware of what you were texting? It's irrelevant. We've moved into an unprecedented age, where terrorist networks like Al-Qaeda and ISIS have their own fucking twitter accounts. Don't you think the government should be monitoring them and any one who might associate with them, so they might possibly save someones life? Rand Paul is just doing it for political points, he doesn't give a flying fuck.
With that being said, I would definitely like to see the results of this NSA program, and see just how many, if any, terrorist plots it has prevented. Originally Posted by shanm

He wants this to be a platform for his presidential bid, that's plain as day. Originally Posted by shanm

2010.... 5 years ago?
"The Founding Fathers warned of a Federal Government bent on usurping the power, rights, and privacy of its States and citizens. In the last nine years, the Federal Government has expanded the scope of its power at an alarming rate, while blatantly ignoring the Constitution.
"Whether it’s passing the 315 page Patriot Act without a single member of Congress ever reading the bill, proposing a National ID Card, establishing FISA courts and utilizing warrantless searches, or betraying the medical privacy of ordinary citizens, the Federal Government has overstepped its limited powers as stipulated in the Constitution.
"Rand Paul seeks to reassert the rights and privileges of the 50 states and over 300 million Americans. The Federal Government must return to its constitutionally enumerated powers and restore our inalienable rights. Rand proposes that America can successfully protect itself against potential terrorists without sacrificing civil liberties. Rand rejects the premise that the Federal Government must be given a blank check in the name of national security.
"America can prosper, preserve personal liberty, and repel national security threats without intruding into the personal lives of its citizens."

Sir it was a Republican who established this act and unfortunately it's a necessary evil- we live in a totally different world and time from our forefathers- I don't know why you are so blind and ignorant to the fact. You still have your freedom- does the Patriot Act stop you from doing anything that you couldn't do 20 years ago?No shit dick tracy it was a republican who started this what does that have to do with anything I stated. Let me break it down for you one more time. You only support it because your god Obama supports it now. There was a time when you thought it a terrible idea, of course that was when it was suggested by Bush. See I haven't forgot all your comments and posts on the ASPD board, so what changed oh yeah your god now supports it so you do too. Of course if he said drinking bull cum was the thing to do you would by a cattle ranch. By the way mr moving the goal post, no one is suggesting getting rid of the TSA, but having my telephone conversations recorded is a little different. Today their listening for terrorists, next it might be unapproved political conversations, hell they already had the IRS promoting a political agenda, but you go ahead and trust them, at least tell Obama's gone and then I am sure your position will change once again. As for the constitution the idea of free speech, the right to vote, protection against illegal search and seizure are all contained in that outdated paper but I guarantee that you would scream like a virgin if the government infringed on them. There are always idiots who claim the consituation is outdated, have been throughout history and its always the fringe element who want to mold the majority into their limited view of how things should be.
Only paranoid fucks like COG will compare this to the Soviet regime. If tomorrow we were to repeal the patriot act and het rid of TSA and have everything back to pre- 9-11 times- ISIS and Al-Queada would be jumping for joy because it would be so easy to infiltrate our country- is that what you want?

Now, WE, can you genuinely claim you're not violating that law when you set up your dates?
To answer your question - let the govt snoop and eavesdrop on my calls- I have nothing to hide you idiot. If the govt were to monitor me they would have no evidence expect that I am a law abiding God fearing tax paying Christian. Why does it bother you bud man? What the hell are you doing behind closed doors that you so afraid of the government knowing your intentions ? Remember it was the republicans who established this law now you guys are panicking because if we really knew who you were - you all would be on a ton of shit. Originally Posted by wellendowed1911

Originally Posted by dirty dogSir you are missing the point- if Al-Queada no longer existed or there were no iSIS hell bent on destroying American than we would have no purpose for the act. The act is only for protecting American lives- where do you get this bullshit conspiracy theory that they will use it for political reasons? You are sounding a lot like Alex Jones. I honestly had no idea Obama was supporting the patriot act.
