If you are a suspected terrorist, the people suspecting you go before a judge, if the judge agrees with the suspectors, then, and only then do they get to use the tools of the patriot act.

Now, are you a terrorist or are you just stupid?
You are very sadly ignorant about how government works. I lived the days of government trying to end the anti Vietnam war movement; laws were not relevant.

I also spent enough time working in a prosecutors office to know that individual rights are too often forgotten for the "public good". Government will do what it needs to survive, if you get in it's way you are a terrorist even if you are within your stated rights.
