The Patriot Act is supposed to protect the citizens of the United States, but is it worth having our freedoms taken away, guaranteed in our Bill of Rights?
Is that correct grammar?
Is it supposed to be a question mark or period?
Can you think of a more constructive way to pose this idea?
I'm trying to write a conclusion for an essay.
This is what I have:
Attorney General Ashcroft says the only purpose of the Patriot Act was "to prevent terrorists from unleashing more death and destruction." It is easy to argue and prove that there are significant flaws in the Patriot Act. These flaws threaten our fundamental freedoms such as giving the government the power and right to access to your medical records, tax records, information about books you buy or borrow without probable cause, and the power to break into your home and conduct secret searches without telling you for weeks, months, or indefinitely.

ok, i'm pronouncing this word as ooh-mm-ph. stoner moment, but i was driving and saw the mph on my spedometer and thought to myself, hmm... i wonder if people say to put some oomph into it because you step on the gas and you're putting more gas into it... ok, that probably didn't make sense, but does anyone agree or know where that really came from?

I got in a debate with someone about whether or not "unlogical" is a coined, English word. I have found no dictionary, unabridged or otherwise, that contains it, but then again all of my dictionaries are from 1944-1994. Some online dictionaries have an entry for it.

Can anyone prove or disprove the exsistance of the word "unlogical?"
