Please bare with me here?
Under the Patriot Act how easy would it be for someone to set someone els up for whatever reason as an Extremist?
Let's say Mike was up for a promotion at work and so was Farid.
Mike really needs the promotion because he has a child who is suffering from an illness that is very costly.
So Mike decides he must figure out a way to make Farid a non-issue.
Mike decides to plant Jihadist and Extremist Al Qaeda materials in Farid's locker at work.
Mike calls the FBI. (remember the store clerk who alerted the FBI?)
They arrest Farid under suspicion of sympathezing with the enemy.
Under our Patriot Act Farid can be arrested without charge, without access to an attorney, family, or an advocate on his behalf!!
Farid can be held like this for years!!
You don't think this can happen??
This is but one example.
How many citizens are we willing to compromise??
