Hello bullpups_two, seven, four and five.
All good arguments and I also commend your use of English. However, there are some holes in the loss of Freedoms by Americans themes. First, Congress gave the President leeway in using wiretaps and other types of surveillance of certain people in America. As you have been told by bulldogg, America has a problem with absolute Freedom. That can also lead to security problems that were not in existence when our Founders wrote our Constitution. The new enemy isn't lined up like soldiers with guns because they know that they would be defeated. So, a new weapon was born, mass communications. Wonderful easy to use communications such as our computers and satellite telephones and television which link our World together for the exchange of information.
On most of your televisions, your parents use a "smart chip" to filter out programs they don't want you to see because they are concerned for you and what you learn. On your computers, you can set your filters to recognize bad words and block them out, that is a firewall. These filters can also be "taught" to understand and "tag" words and phrases that can come from a source which intends to harm Americans.
While this is a form of spying by your parents or Government, it's not meant to gather data on you for doing you harm. When there is a string of data, whether it comes from a cell phone or computer, that meets the "filter" criteria that "tags" a user who intends to do harm to our citizens, it is monitored over time and if the information is needed by the FBI to build a case against a terrorist, then their telephone is tapped. Tapping is not done at random, there has to be a good reason to suspect that person of meaning to do harm.
I know this is long but I want you to know that our Constitution is not in danger but our Country is. Some of your arguments were about the Patriot Act not being worthwhile because the Trade Center was bombed. Understand that there was no system of gathering information before 9/11 but after the Patriot Act was enacted, there has not been another bomb or sabotage since 9/11.
As you have read in newspapers, there has been bombing and/or riots in Countries such as Russia, England, France, Australia, Syria, and much of the Middle East while here in America, several plots were discovered and stopped. These new enemies of Freedom want to take it away from all the free Democracies of the World. They must be stopped using technology, the very technology that everyone in the World is free to use. If you made it all the way through this, thank you, and I hope it helps you. Keep studying and learn.
