Privacy and Piracy

If you thought that the Somali pirates were the only pirates out there, you'd be wrong. Our government now takes YOUR private phone records from Verizon. (I doubt that's the only network involved, but that's just suspicious me). It is an indiscriminate power grab that affects the lives of every American. With your phone records they know where you are/were at any given moment. They know who you spoke to. They can track texts, looking for dirt in all the wrong places. This is what happens when the wrong people are in power. They look for ways to destroy those who oppose them. And they don't care how they do it! In the hands of good men, the Patriot Act would have been a tool to stop the terrorists. In the hands of evil, it becomes a danger to all Americans. Everyone should have seen it coming, but no one believed that our leadership would go that bad. Or that it could happen as quickly as it did. This isn't about scandal, this is about your right to privacy and safety. The "big brother" has already broken into the house! Lord, help us!
