Is NSA "law enforcement" though? They are spies. It is (or should be) also quite illegal for them to be doing that to its own citizens, so if they do that, they should be in prison.
Too bad we live in a time where the president of US and Congress, prefer to protect these guys no matter what (whether it's spying or torture), instead of punishing them according to the law.
- malandrew 13y agoI really don't consider the NSA to be law enforcement. What, if any, US laws are they responsible for enforcing? The FBI, Secret Service, Highway Patrol, city, state and country police departments, sheriffs, etc. are all in charge of enforcing laws. The NSA and the CIA as far as I can tell are not. Additionally neither are really tasked with domestic operations of any kind. National domestic law enforcement issues fall under the jurisdiction of the FBI.
