It started with the progressive era in the early 1900s. The patrot act is just the most recent chapter in looooooong running book.

Wait, this is a private forum, right? :scared:

The FBI has always had these powers, they're just being formalized. You're kidding yourself if you think they couldn't come up with a legal way of getting what they wanted prior to these 'tweaks'.



Exactly. When you say NOW I think back the whole Red Scare and black listing of the 1950s, totally led by the FBI. These boys have done this stuff since their inception; it just was never formally admitted to the public until recently.

Anyway, if they were going to take us away for imflammatory crap we said in forums, some of us would have been locked up long ago.

I claim insanity. I have no idea what I'm posting half the time. The other half it's just some ranting that a couple of the voices in my head came up with that made some semblance of sense to the whole host of voices given the current context of their immensely variable emotional states.
