Of course monitoring everything online and our phones has been going on for years and years without our consent, but now, let's get it right into the open and say "it's for our own protection against terrorism."
Yes, that evil "terrorism" that must be stopped at all costs.
This is the true birth of 1984 and Big Brother, and with all things, Americans will protest a little bit, and then will go on with their lives. In about 2 weeks a new headline will take the place of the old headlines and nobody will give a dam.
Remember gun control? LOL that was fun for a month. Don't worry, this new issue will pass also.
We are truly sheep and happy to graze in the field without a god dam care.
We get what we deserve. Nobody cares, so these psychopaths in office can do what ever they dam will please.
I'll tell my grandchildren one day about "privacy" and how we used to have it a long time ago. They will look at me with strange eyes and say, "how old are you grandpa?"
Long live the "Empire of the United States."
