We - the "civilized" western world - generally agree to basic human rights but allow to have them violated by the people we voted for and that we pay from our money every day.

Guys like pathfinder have been propagandized to the point of no return and will hold their flag above human rights. Too many military guys are unfortunately like that.
"I'm just following orders."
"I'm just doing my job."
"I don't care about less privacy because I don't have anything to hide."
And so on and so forth. It's a broken record story with these guys. It's sad really.
