Not based in reality? So, it's just my imagination that RICO was used to go after pro-life groups? And the Patriot Act never was used to investigate Las Vegas strip club owners?

I can see why some people think such laws are necessary to keep the nation safe.

Or how about the way the RAVE Act was used to shut down peaceful protests by threatening venues with prosecution?
