I love the simile used there, well done. That is a tough question about which extreme the citizens want the methods to be taken. If they have the chance of condemning themselves in an effort to protect the country, is it that worth it to follow through? The opinions probably differ greatly...

Guilty by association Martin. Probably a lot of them were detained when they were defending their terrorist outposts.

I assume that most of the detainees are not innocent, and have been involved with Al-Qaeda practices. Its rather difficult to say thats true, but hopefully our government isn't screwing up in this aspect of the War on Terror.

But you must admit that the Patriot Act does make the U.S. safer. Although it comes by the expense of people that might be innocent, most of those detainees do not fit that description.
