What happened to the First Amendment?
What if I just want to take some pictures of my employees, the ones I pay my taxes for?

Oorah! At this point, we've got more than just the First Amendment at stake. None other than Justice Antonin Scalia is shouting to America that the constitution and the republic are at stake, and a period of profound "social disruption" has begun. He is at war with Breyer's self-proclaimed revolution from above via "comparativism" (Breyer literally describes what is happening as comparable to a global version of the French revolution).

Moreover, while few paid much attention, the Clintonistas in Justice (and there still MANY -- Bush never cleaned house like Clinton did in 1993) in league with the pro-torture AG and Card's Weldian Liberal RINOs that pepper this pseudo-conservative administration, have advanced a host of cases to build precedents for nothing less than the complete nullification of the U.S. 4th, 5th, 6th, and 8th Amendments, and establish ARBITRARY and WANTON powers (the "tactics of totalitarianism" [Burke]) that sound "reasonable" for going after foreign invaders here in the U.S, but are actually starting to be used against Americans (and "right-wingers" the Left hates). People need to start following the trail of executive orders, administrative decrees and increasing use of "directives" (even by the Senate Judiciary Committee), case precedents, and so on. Those who actually do could care less about PATRIOT, because it is utterly trivial (even diversionary) in the context of a massive accelerating drive to accumulate wanton (lawless) powers and carve out arbitrary governmental "exceptions" to almost every law, procedural right, and constitutional right on the books.
