In reply to the discussion: On this Independence Day, I'm thankful for Edward Snowden [View all]bvar22
(39,909 posts)...and the compiling of that data into searchable databases is FAR more widespread that we had been led to believe,
and that the reassurances from our government that Americans were being protected by the FISA Courts was a Big Pack of LIES.
I suspected that our government was LYING about Domestic Spying on American citizens in 2006.
Now I KNOW it is happening,
and now I KNOW that the "secret" FISA Court in nothing but a Bad JOKE that Rubber Stamps anything the NSA wants.
YOU may to go along peacefully like a good citizen with these latest outrages,
but I'm NOT "going gently into that Good Night".
Thank GAWD we live in a Free Democratic Country where our Government is FORBIDDEN to do the things it is doing by our Constitution!
Happy Independence and Freedom Day!!!!
