Question

Specifically, which amendments does the USA Patriot Act violate?

Answer 1

Individual freedoms can be taken away at the discretion of the government, with no hearing, and no recourse.

Answer 2

"The Patriot Act violates four of the 10 amendments in the Bill of Rights. These are the big ones, the ones that the Founding Fathers wrote. The Sixth Amendment guarantees all citizens the right to a speedy and public trial decided by an impartial jury. Apparently, Ashcroft has never actually read the Bill of Rights (or else he thinks it’s ok to violate them) because, according to the Associated Press, the Patriot Act allows the government to jail Americans indefinitely without a trial. The act also allows the government to monitor religious and political groups without suspecting criminal activity, jail citizens without charging them with a crime and take library records without telling people. In fact, if a librarian does tell you Big Brother Ashcroft took your records, the government can prosecute the librarian, which is a direct infringement on the freedom of speech."

Answer 4

As with any law change, subject to interpretation, but there is no official "Right of Privacy" - Here are a few used to support that principle:

Bill of Rights (and 14th Amendment) Provisions Relating to the Right of Privacy

Amendment I
(Privacy of Beliefs)
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Amendment III
(Privacy of the Home)
No Soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the Owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law.

Amendment IV
(Pivacy of the Person and Possessions)
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

Amendment IX
(More General Protection for Privacy?)
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

Liberty Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment
No State shall... deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.

Answer 5

The largest violation is the protectioin against unlawful search and seizure. A warrant approved by a judge with the government showing probable cause. That is the primary one. The other is violation of cruel and unusual treatment, right to trial and not being held without charge, and the right to habeas corpous.

Until the Democrats stop wiping their tails on the 2nd Amendment, I don't want to hear any whining about loss of privacy. Freedom in America doesn't start and end with the "Privacy Act of 1974". Freedom has much, much more to do with free speech and the "Right to Keep and Bear Arms".

Answer 7

if you actually think the USA PATRIOT act of 2001 is legal under the constitution and bill of rights than they have you sucked so far deep into their subliminal propaganda you are officially classified as a sheep and can be herded and which way the government wants

Answer 8

The closest thing it challenges is the right to privacy granted under the protections against unlawful search and siezure. Still I don't call anyone in Afghanistan, Pakistan or Iran so my guess is that it does not impact me one bit and it doesn't bother me any either.

Answer 9

None. The Patriot Act is legal.

Answer 10

I bet you believe that abortion was illegal in the US prior to Roe vs. Wade too.

That Patriot Act is quite legal.
