it is the routine unwarranted (as in "without a warrant") usage, which gives me creeps.
The unwarranted use is unconstitutional. The Supreme Court ruled warrants (or exceptions to the need for warrants, like exigent circumstances) applies to radar like this a while ago. Like over a decade.
But nice to see Illiberals confounded by the dilemma of "taxes are good" vs. "government surveillance is bad"...
It's no dilemma. I never said "every government program is perfect." I said, "cherry-picking the dumbest example of something to argue against all instances is wrongheaded". In much the same way that I don't respond to your current post, and every one of your posts, by looking through your history, choosing your dumbest statement, and repeating a totally coherent and unambiguous rebuttal of it. Each act should be addressed on its own merits.
