That is the point. The same thing happens in Australia. While we don't have a bill of rights that can be suspended, the government here has also granted its services incredible powers .. "to combat terrorism". And yet when you ask people, they either don't know about it .. or don't care. The belief that you are safe because you havn't done anything wrong and that signing away your freedoms and rights is fine if it will stop the bad guys is damaging to a society. Find me a society with a perfect government, no corruption and then I'll agree to it. But that society won't include humanity.
