Added to this they are storing the data indefinitely, allowing them to go back in time and create a motive to fit a crime. The govt and law enforcement can not be trusted to abide by the constitution when their main goal is to "get" the so called bad guy.

The congressmen and others who have allowed this shit to become the new norm should all be lined up and shot for treason. They should start with Bush/Cheney and go down the line to the current fuckers who have allowed it to continue.
