Spying? Who cares..

what is it with all this spy crap? Why is everyone freaking out about it? Like it is a new concept?

If you think the government hasn't been spying on us at all in the last decade since the technology has been booming..your just stupid.

Not agreeing or saying that it is right that they spy, but if you think it has just started or 9-11-01 sparked it, you need to catch up.

Your right, it happend long before 9/11 and long before Bush even got the GOP nomination.

It's just convenient for some people who choose to be unfair to their country and themselves to forget.

They arent spying on me, I only have the best intentions for my country.

If they are anyways? Thats fine with me, they can probably get some good college papers, porn, and nice pictures off of my computer.

Here is how my longest phone call of the week has gone...

Me: Hello?
Work: Greg, wake up.
Me: I'm awake, I answered the phone didnt I.
Work: Greg Danny is sick, get here as soon as you can.
Me: I'm kind of far away but Ill try to be there by eight.
Work: Ok

Click

Now my best voicemail...

"GREG! This is your mom I was just seeing if you were still in the country, give me a call. Bye."

If they want to listen to me for a laugh or because they get bored, thats fine. Now they know my phone conversations for the week and so do you!

No Tom, I do not. Nor do I want my government to have a free hand into my personal affairs.

So you feel that it's not ok for criminals and terrorists to spy on you. And you don't want the government to spy on you....mmmmm....how can the government catch criminals and terrorists then?


How is the government having a free hand into your personal affairs? Or are you just speculating?

As gun owners we live by the following amendment to the US Constituion:

Quote:
Amendment II - Right to bear arms. Ratified 12/15/1791.

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.
We fight tooth and nail to make sure the government does not infringe upon this right.

Yet you seem to be advocating an infringement of this amendment:

Quote:
Amendment IV - Search and seizure. Ratified 12/15/1791.

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.
Our founding fathers did not want the government to have the ability to wantonly spy on us.

Should we just do away with this amendment? The fact that we have nothing to hide does not make it OK for the govenment to spy on us. It's unconstitutional.

But to throw your arms up in the air now, and cry about your constitutional rights NOW, then you are an idiot.
