      The Patriot Act: Used for non-violent, non-terror crimes 99% of the time

      The Patriot Act was not about terrorism. It is overwhelmingly used for creating a more efficient Police State to pursue non-violent crime. Police use this monstrous law to perform "Sneak & Peek" warrants, breaking and entering into your home, and leaving, without your permission or...
