I don't need no stinking probable cause...

Slippery slopes: we got bunches of them. We’re pawing our way slowly back up the 2nd Amendment slippery slope although there are twits out there ready to stomp on our hands and start us sliding downward again. Another is the slippery slope of our 4th Amendment rights. With the Patriot Act and gems like this we’re sliding down the slope towards a police state so damn fast we got holes in our pants. The FED wants to give the FBI the right to access, not the contents of our email, but damn near everything else about it without a warrant. Pesky things those warrants. To get one you have to show probable cause and prove you have a need. As easy as that rubber stamp is for a Federal Agent to get before a National Security Judge, that’s still one hurdle to many for them to cross. Enough. I understand we’re at war and our enemies want to destroy our way of life. Why then are we giving them the easy win by tearing our Constitutional protections down in our efforts to get to the bad guys? It’s got to stop…now.

It's not only that we're giving them the easy win, we're just flat out not resisting in ANY EFFECTIVE way at all. We = We the People (WTP).
