The Patriot Act allows our government to better follow communications and activities of those who would attack or destroy us.

There are many acts against us, by terrorists, going on inside our borders. When terrorists, or dangerous elements, inside our borders, order 7,500 weapons of war overseas, wouldn't it be nice to be able to find out about it?

Why do you think that it would be better to have terrorists be able to more freely operate within our own country? Are you that eager to see the Brooklyn Tunnel blown up, or the San Francisco Bridge blown up, or our water supply poisoned?

This is a real world. You are in a dream world, where if you treat terrorists and evil ones nice, they will become saints. It doesn't work that way!
