Government officials said Tuesday they knew of no other instances in which federal agents investigating allegations such as racketeering and bribery of politicians have employed the act.

From my perspective, if a strip club owner is investigated for and proven to be involved in racketeering along with bribing politicians (which recently happened in San Diego) then any liberty lost is well worth it. Guess we'll have to see how this turns out. I'm sure that there are many in London right now who wish they had some form of Patriot Act in place before July 7th.
