They could be very effective That's silly and you know that I know that you know it. But supercomputers doing preliminary filtering? Could be something there. One group will dispense with all controls where "feasible" and one won't. I keep trying to give you the opportunity to discuss this question somewhere in between these two hardened groups. You're still ducking. You just keep falling back on one bunch's mantra. Why is that? Have you developed a fondness for polarization? Given up on communication? What? <g>

There is a vast and growing break between the "do anything to protect us" crowd and the pesky Bill of Rights bunch who want everything to follow the due process set down in our country's guiding documents. There you have it. Compare the two groups: 1. The "do anything to protect us" group, and 2. The founding fathers who set down due process provisions in our country's guiding documents. It seems to me the more things change, the more they stay the same. It seems to me also the founding fathers were trying to protect us from the "do anything to protect us" types of people. Those types of people have not changed over the years and that is the whole reason for those "guiding documents".
