One of the most important stories of the year, on HN for 6 hours, with 11 comments and 105 points. Is everyone already afraid? I always said "I told you so" would ring hollow and have no satisfaction in it, but this is what happens when everyone forgets about our foundational principles and waves injustice away with arguments such as 234dd57d2c8db's. The constitution is the supreme law of the land, created to protect, not establish, natural rights. As such, such general warrants do not properly satisfy the constitutional requirements our country established. Actions like this, are the result of the allowed slippage, from both sides of the isle, as prescribed to them by the shadow masters. We have allowed our true foreign enemies to infiltrate and subvert our system, falsely focus our efforts on foreign boogeymen, all the while our domestic enemies run rampant (often backed, or blackmailed, by foreign ones). The true, the capable, the already somewhat successful enemies of the constitution don't wear hijabs, they wear business suits and ties. This is a turning point for America, where we either cower in fear of the coming totalitarian surveillance dystopia, or we speak up and push back. Silence now will be nothing less than acquiescence. As Hitchens said, the American revolution is the only revolution that still stands a chance.
