If you are not American, our laws apply to you, but not our rights. So you are out of luck if you want to file a FOIA.

- GoodIntentions 13y agohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Emery http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Emery There are other examples. This is the one that came to mind most readily. I don't smoke up. I don't support Marc Emery. I was however, ashamed at how nut-less my government was in handing him over.

For example a Columbian drug lord can break American laws without ever stepping foot on US soil. A hacker in China can violate wiretapping laws. The sovereignty of other nations has given way to extradition, extraordinary rendition, or even drone strikes.
