Argel -Karin Immergut, the U.S. attorney in Oregon, denied Mayfield had been a target because of his religion and maintained that the FBI had followed all laws in the case.

Actually, mbush40 60 minutes and PBS have both reported on a former AT&T engineer who had the actual blueprints diagraming a installation of split or duplication of all incoming and outgoing transmissions at a major switching station in San Francisco, CA. Only 1 person at the AT&T office had clearence to enter the new room that was constructed, it required top secret clearance and was maintained by the NSA. It was also reported that there were 13 facilities accross the country that had this same setup. The "splittting" of the transmissions allowed the NSA to monitor all voice and data transmissions without interupting the flow of data. BTW do a internet search on "carnivore", a FBI program that monitors internet traffic and also search "eschelon" an NSA spying program on the internet. You still think they are not spying on people??? Suggestion : Send an e-mail to someone in the middle east and use the terms " bomb, attack, jihad, Osama" and just sit back and watch what happens, The evidence surrounds you. You and your fellow neo-cons should wake up and get a clue, now rather than later.

P.S. Strike three, YOU ARE OUT !!! and hearby demoted to the minor leagues where you belong!!!

I know you won't read this because you only see what you want, which is neocon ranting.

You probably won't get any proof because no one can prove it, that's why it is called SPYING.

But here are a few examples of Patriot Act abuses:


1) David Banach was charged with temporarily blinding the pilot and co-pilot of an airplane with a laser beam, claiming he was simply using the device to look at stars with his 7-year-old daughter. Federal authorities used the Patriot Act to charge him with interfering with the operator of a mass transportation vehicle and making false statements to the FBI. If convicted, Banach could be sentenced to 25 years in prison and fined $500,000. The FBI acknowledged the incident had no connection to terrorism.

2) Denver resident Mike Maginnis was physically assaulted by Denver police during Vice President Dick Cheney's visit to the city and then held for hours while being verbally assaulted by men who represented themselves as federal agents working for the Secret Service. The latter, Maginnis claims, threatened to charge him as a "terrorist" under the USA Patriot Act. Maginnis apparently tried to phone a Denver area newspaper, only to have his phone call disconnected when authorities discovered who he was contacting.

3) Activist Bev Harris was told not to reveal to anyone the fact that she and her website were being investigated under the Patriot Act. It is illegal for a government agency to go in and demand the list of all the members of a group. And you can't investigate leaks to journalists by going in and grabbing the reporter's computer.

4) Seventh-grader John McLean, a 12-year-old kid at Boys' Latin middle school, researches a paper on the Bay Bridge, and suddenly the Joint Terrorist Task Force shows up in the headmaster's office.

5) In May 2004, Brandon Mayfield, an attorney in Portland, Ore., and a convert to Islam, was arrested in connection with the March 11, 2004, Madrid bombings that left 191 people dead. He was held for two weeks as a "material witness."

Mayfield was released after the FBI admitted his fingerprint had been mistakenly matched with one found at the scene of the Madrid attacks.

But the government has admitted to Mayfield that his home was searched secretly under a special court order authorized for intelligence purposes, when if fact agents were looking for evidence to use in a criminal prosecution.

Once again, I exposed an ignorant neocon rant. Too easy, way too easy.

I mean how do you expect the average person to be able to give you that. But I do have a name Luis Aguilar. He was spied upon for almost a year and he works nights since he is a musician with a band and they spied and spied. And then finally came and arrested him and turns out they had the wrong person. Turns out they were looking for a Luis Cardona Aguilar and they got Luis Aguilar Cardona. They wasted a year monitoring him and the fact that he worked in clubs and late at night made them think they had the right man. They were looking for a drug cartel guy from Mexico.

Brandon Mayfield

According to court documents, FBI agents began their surveillance of Mayfield two weeks after the attacks in the Spanish capital. Under a provision of the U.S. Patriot Act, they entered his home without his knowledge — but aroused the family’s suspicion by bolting the wrong lock on their way out and leaving a footprint on the rug that didn’t match any family members.

You're busted.

*Lol! Those crickets in your head said you "hit it out of the park"? I believe you.

Do you think that is made public? If you do I know of a bridge across the Hudson River that I will sell you cheap.

Your question is pedantic. It's like asking who has been illegally tortured after passage of the Military Commissions Act.

Try addressing the ISSUE of government intrusion, privacy, and the 4th Amendment.

Um... You're not supposed to know that you are being spied on, if you did, then that would make the spies pretty stupid now, wouldn't it?
