With the end of the Iraq war and the Afghanistan War winding down do you believe that the Patriot Act which allows wire tapping and other unconventional methods to try to catch terrorists should still be allowed, or should it be completely abolished as it directly violates the 4th ammendment and other rights. Do you believe that we should give that freedom up for security or do you believe that if we do we deserve neither as Ben Franklin once said.
Personally I think that the act hasn't done much good over all and we've had more success with military operations over seas then catching any terrorists here at home. I also believe that this is the same as people trying to get rid of guns thinking that they will be safe, instead it just gets rid of freedom and violates our constitution. I think this act should be abolished as soon as possible, sadly I think people will just accept their loss of freedom.
