I agree with the patriot act because i would rather be alive and have my phone records or e mails read than have been killed from a terrorist attack.

I agree as well.. it's not that bad to have all our phone records looked through unless we have something to hide. What else would happen?

i agree why shouldnt we give them the power to collect data on everyone if its going to stop us from getting bombed or attacked by terroist. id rather be alive then dead because we stopped them from getting the data that they need.
