The NSA are a bunch of juvenile wankers who live in their mothers’ basement and are de-selected Beta “males.”

I hope a lawyer reads this.
Any case that involved information gained via phone records or Email should be challenged. If the evidence came from NSA data then the case should be thrown out. In fact after the NSA has said this then it would appear to me that a LEO must prove that that the data did NOT come an NSA source.
Abolish this agency. Burn the records

Police state? Yeh, I was thinking about that while I went through the security checkpoint on my way to the state re-education center to turn in my unapproved propaganda. Got a tinfoil hat on you? Mine's blown off somewhere.

I’ve long suspected that many amazingly lucky traffic stop drug busts weren’t lucky at all.

I notice my tag line is becoming more and more appropriate.
In the current system, the government has the means to gather all the info it needs, to railroad anybody who displeases the powers that be. The Obama administration has also repeatedly demonstrated the willingness to use power to punish political opponents.

Wouldn’t be hard for them to find something, pretend they never saw it, then go back and subpoena for it, and then present it in court, or if you’re prominent enough, just leak it to the usual suspects.

I've always thought that they collect all information and when they want to destroy someone's business, or political ambitions, they just have all this stuff at their command..
what I wonder about is do republicans have access or is it it strictly for democrats to use....or is it to the highest bidder....
I think Snowden is a hero.....imo....

All of the information gained by the NSA through spying is then shared with federal, state and local agencies, and they are using that information to prosecute petty crimes such as drugs and taxes. The agencies are instructed to intentionally launder the information gained through spying, i.e. to pretend that they got the information in a more legitimate way
and to hide that from defense attorneys and judges. Thought experiment: suppose police broke into your home without a warrant, while you were away, and saw things that make them decide they want to prosecute you. Would it now be legitimate for them to search for a pretext to get a warrant (eg, claim an informant said you have X, Y, Z in the house), kick in your door, and seize the items they illegally perused before?

I won’t consider it a police state until I actually have to get security clearance to leave the county, show papers at the state border, and turn in ALL of my firearms and unapproved books.
