Why the Patriot Act works

http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=578&ncid=578&e=4&u=/nm/20050315/ts_nm/crime_weapons_dc

I've been hearing for a few years now how the Patriot Act will erode my civil rights, throw me in jail, and have me slaving away in a dungeon for Halliburton.

How dissapointed liberals like Ward Churchill must be when the Patriot Act, used with precision and temperance, nets some very dangerous people.

"..New York prosecutors said on Tuesday 18 people have been arrested on charges of trafficking in arms from Russia, including rocket-propelled grenades and shoulder-fired surface-to-air missiles.."

""The arrests resulted from a year-long wiretap investigation that utilized a confidential informant posing as an arms trafficker selling weapons to terrorists," the U.S. Attorney's office said in a statement. .."

For those of you unfamiliar, a SAM (surface to air missile) will take down
an airliner with ease.

How many times can we get lucky and catch these people before our number is up?
