You said that when you said this: "I'm still wondering what freedoms I've given up. Now if I was a terrorist, pervert or drug dealer I'd be a little nervous about the wire taps." ============= You don't know who they are listening in on, why they are listening in, what they do with that information which is why THERE ARE LAWS. If the US of A blithely gives away one law or two laws or three out of fear of Osama, Osama has won. ============= First they came for the Communists, and I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t a Communist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t a Jew. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak up, because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me, and by that time there was no one left to speak up for me. by Rev. Martin Niemoller, 1945
