[QUOTE="Sparky2, post: 2175353, member: 15464"] Paranoid? Nope.... but I have removed my blinders. It's amazing how much more you can see... I highly recommend it. It sounds like you get it... pretty much. What happened was wrong, and it would appear that you agree: (" The government coming to your home and searching without a warrant is wrong") (" if you start setting off bombs and shooting people you go from being paranoid to being a threat to innocents, then they can and should search for you") YES... but within the realm of the constitution and it's loopholes (and the best loophole here is probable cause, which they did not have for each individual home). What happened happened and no matter how screwed up we may or may not think it may be is irrelevant (can't fix it now). What is relevant to me is that some screwed up stuff occurred and those people were wronged, and if it could happen to them, it could happen to us. If this isn't realized and resistance established (through discussion, lawsuits, or otherwise), it could happen here too. The crazy thing about the constitution is that it's an all or nothing document. One thing protects or affords the other.... If this is what makes me "paranoid" by your standards.... I'll wear that with pride, though I'd use a different word. [/QUOTE]
