FBI says the constitution is getting in the way of stopping "extremists".

So then we should accept your alternative where the technology exists to monitor dangerous people and allow people to think about going on shooting sprees (or the like) habitually with no action until they finally decide to do so? Sounds like the cause of death is the failure to be prepared. If you are not subject to the law until you offend then that also means that others are not protected by effect of the law. I think you'll find that this seemingly patriotic impulse is poorly thought out. We need to protect people who are members of society in good standing and that means stopping potential offenders before they act. The constitution can enable offenders just as it shields those who have not yet offended. Ultimately, the safety of good members of society is a more important priority than the freedom of those who would harm others without just cause. People who would harm without just cause are people who are going to have to be dealt with eventually, constitution or not. Why should we wait until there are victims? If the role of government is simply to respond, it doesn't make much of a dent in the decay of crime and corruption that threatens the good of society. I don't believe we should be idle by choice. There is something seriously wrong when criminals have rights even in their violating and the victims do not have any protection.

Tell them to eat a dick.

FUCK THE FBI! The Constitution is the law of the land. I refuse to give up my freedom for their idea of safety.

Are you encouraging a crank call or what, why the numbet? So have you tried calling the hotline and saying eat dick yet?
