Of course it’s a matter of opinion. Just this week a law was passed, by the Supreme Court of the U.S.A., that search and enter, bust your door down anytime for any or no reason, without warrant is not only okay (always was). Although now any evidence found, in this what I will call illegal action, is admissible in a court of law. That’s just one example.
I like the Patriot Act 2 answer- I too hope all know and read the PNAC (project for a new Amerikan century) I couldn't resist the "K".
My Answer is the Supreme Court of the U.S.A.

Civil liberties. People are manipulating the principles this country was founded on to prove that liberties exist for all people in this country. Who would have thought that given to much liberty, people would force themselves into a communist republic.

being politically correct.
but then My idea of what civil liberties are is quite often out of the normal range of thought.
If the concern is to make everyone "feel good", then the playing field gets leveled and everything must be okay so no one ever gets offended.

I dont believe that there is a single threat; there are many; small minded people who unfairly judge, christian coalition, radical religious extremists of all flavours who have killed more people in the name of god than any other reason known, President Bush, not enough fear of the karma police, paying professional athletes more than teachers, you decide.

The continued feeding of fear on people by governments and mass media used as justification for stripping away of liberties.

People who think what is right for them must be right for others. Like that dad who did not like the terminology of the Pledge of Allegiance. Rather than saying that his daughter had the right to not say it, he wanted to prevent other children from saying it as well.
As one of Jehovah's Witnesses, I don't say the Pledge. But I am not going to try to pass a law to stop others from saying it. It is their right.

Ironically enough, it may turn out to be the Internet ... if you have a baby and they assign it an IP address shortly after birth, start really worrying ....

The fact that the poorly managed government is collecting and storing all kinds of information on you even if you aren't suspected of a crime.
