Hey guys, there are these terrorists that live over there, it's somewhere in the middle east, but it's not really important where. They hate us, for some reason. Probably religious reasons. You know, the extremists, not to say that religion is bad or anything, just people who take it way too far. Well anyway, they trained up people, hijacked some planes, and flew them into 2 US buildings killing thousands on September 11, 2001.
These guys are bad guys. Clearly. They're our enemies. They attacked us once, already, and it's pretty safe to assume they want to attack us more. They want to kill you and me. They hate us. They're here, right now, and are planning the next attack. Maybe at your local mall, on that day you head there to check out some new arrivals and grab some grub at the food court. Have you thought about that? Your mall could totally be bombed by one of these guys at any time. Or the train you take to work. Or the bus that's pulling up next to you while you walk through the streets. BOOM. Any time. Anywhere. You're seriously screwed. You're in so much danger.
But we want to catch these guys before they blow you up. To do that, though, we need to see all information, all the time. These guys communicate over Facebook, they search how to blow up your mall on Google, they use e-mail just like you. They also call each other on your phone network. We need to nail these fuckers. So we're going to just listen to everything. Just in case. It's not you, it's them. We need to catch them.

When did we stop classifying scaring citizens into forfeiting constitutional rights as terrorism? Our government scares me significantly more than anyone I've ever seen at an airport, even the crazy ones. It scares me more than the thought of traveling to the middle east and wearing an "IM AN AMERICAN" t-shirt. And you want to call THEM the terrorists?
I'd be more afraid of being blown up by a drone strike while in the middle east than being shot by some radical islamic extremist who's been taught to hate us.
The forfeit of constitutional rights is unjustifiable.
