Give me a break!!! So far the answer to the origional question (how many people has the patriot act effected) is ZERO. Why??? Because we're NOT freaking terrorists.
You people are pissed about the PATRIOT ACT and even complain that it was used to bust drug dealers. Oh DARN...LESS drug dealers are out there.
Yes, maybe the Patriot Act allows the FBI to use certain techniques to track down terrorists and criminals that we're not accustomed to...but HELLO remember 9/11 ??? What do you expect us to do? If we did NOTHING, you people would be whining about how nothing was ever done.
The Patriot Act is necessary in America TODAY. Maybe it wasn't necessary 20 years ago, and maybe it won't be 20 years from now. But today, it is.
ALSO- If you've never read the text of the ACT itself then SHUT UP and stop commenting on something you know nothing about...or have only "learned" about from some SUNDANCE FILM.
Do you really think the "big" government cares about your super secret emails and instant messages? I think not. The purpose of the Act is to protect all of US from terrorists. So get over yourselves - your emails and phone calls AREN'T as important as you think.
