Why in the hell would I want to join the NSA? to harass innocent Americans so we can find that 1 terrorist out of 379.999 million innocent Americans?

It should be no problem to get the required warrants to secretly monitor someones traffic if there is real reason to believe they are ingaged in suspicious behavior.

But who decides what suspicious behavior is? If I'm darked skinned am I more likely to be a terrorist? If I am a muslim living in America why whole life am I more likely to be a terrorists?

If I say bad things about the president and his lying oil rich buddies am I more likely to be a terrorist? Where does it end? Why don't we just round up all the Muslim looking people and the peace activist and anti-war protesters and throw them in an internment camp? Why? Because! we already tried that in world war 2, and we now know it was completely indefensible and wrong!

But here we are agian, asking the people to play tattle tell and report those suspicious looking muslims. Let's just put it this way! if it's a crime to truly hate our current goverment and it's administration then 50% of Americans could be considerd criminals.

The idea that we Americans should give up our domestic rights hand over fist becuase the goverment says it's for our "protection" is just plain lunacy!

No matter how they package it, wether they have God's consent itself! NO spying on one American UNLESS they do it legally through the courts should this be allowed, PERIOD!
