I wonder how much Americans are focused on entitlements rather than rights when it comes to preventative measures to preserve our freedom?

bend over again...

You state you are a constitutionalist. On what grounds should the Bill of Rights be suspended?

I own houses in four states, thousands of miles apart. Two are out west, and two are here in the east. On the way out last fall, I entered into Oklahoma on I-40 heading west. I was traveling with a group of cars, at ONE MILE OVER THE POSTED LIMIT. I had committed no illegal acts, nor was doing anything unusual, but my car was singled out to pull over.

I challenged the stop, as soon as the cop came alongside my car. After a little debate, the officer asked me if I was carrying (insert long list here) anything illegal. I asked him for a reason why he asked the question, and he started getting belligerent with me... I did not back up from him, but pressed for him to acknowledge he was fishing...

Know your rights. They will keep you OUT OF TROUBLE!

I will categorically state that anyone naive enough to think that one item of the Patriot Act has prevented another attack, probably should get help.

Or, just talk to the Santa. He will understand...

I agree with all you said, and thanks for the break in tension with Santa. I caught your meaning by the way. Just saying, seeing the Santa, made what you posted all the more better. Fairy Tales. :-)

They are fun times, oh yes.

You weren't a victim of the Patriot act. You were a victim of Political Correctness implemented by liberals trying their hand at national security which by the way happened long before the Patriot Act.

God forbid we offend anyone that actually fits the profile?
