Still when the government believes it is above the law it becomes a problem for all.
there is no sign of that.

I saw prosecutors target people and bring them down because they believed they were a potential problem.

I also had my phone tapped and two undercover cops assigned to watch me during the Vietnam war era. One of the cops became a good friend. Other undercover cops lied under oath in a Federal trial to jail two friends accused of burnign a US flag during a demonstration. One of them was actually a provocator who created the incident. I lived through this crap first hand.

I will never trust the government because I have been there and done that.
we can all bring up examples from 35yrs ago.

That doesn't concern me one bit when dealing with terrorist.
