May God bless our Country and give us wise and honorable leaders and make us great again.

Sandyberry, yes, but America has always been great, hasn't it?
BBpearl
The patriot act was an attack on American civil liberties which has been abused by the government to crack down on dissent and spy on civilians and detain citizens indefinitely without due process of law.

America is great! Always was and always will be!

Player #2655037, Now is that being tolerant. Saying that if you don't like America the way it is,leave. So would the same mentality apply to those who voted for President Obama, who said in his acceptance speech "change is coming to America " Sounds like he didn't like America the way it was. Sounds to me like you are only open to the change that you want. Someone once told me that being liberal was all about being tolerant. I don't see it. You are only tolerant of your point of view. Everyone who disagrees is labeled as racist, xenophobic, etc

thank God that we gave up our liberties for the illusion of security.

2gameORnot2game4mE, To build on your comment. The idea of America is great, the idea that government rests in the hands of the people, not a king, the idea of freedom to choose, the values of thrift, hard work, honestly, and charity. Of doing good to your neighbors. Have we always lived up to those ideas? No. But that does not mean that the idea isn't great, even if the people have not always behaved in that manner.

with this law Americans gave away a tremendous number of their freedoms, because of fear.
also curious how a 3200 page document could be created and passed, all in one week? It's almost like it was prepared and waiting on the special circumstances to move it thru quickly. members were told that if the d I don't not pass it, they were unamerican.
a sad day in our history.

VascularVocabulary6, what we are seeing in the blm (for the most part and is my humble opinion) is a far left backed terrorist group. The majority of blacks are waking up and seeing the Democratic party for what it. Seems we only hear about "the movement" every 4 years right before the Election. Unfortunately...

The Patriot act was used against American Citizens and then obama turned it into the Freedom act, and obama used it against innocent Americans and now FISA is Unconstitionally being used against Americans, including, using again

Sandyberry, More God, more respect, and better leaders Amen!

Conceptually America is great but the corruption has ruined it. Government is the problem not the solution

Kreg, we're not going to continue being great if our leaders continue to push socialism on its citizens.

Sandyberry, we are already great no matter the president....

Terror and terrorists is a bit of a subjective term too, the English declared that we were terrorists and a terrorist people during the American Revolution and The War of 1812. On a slightly different subject giving up all your freedoms and liberties isn't worth a little modicum of security. Benjamin Franklin once said: a man who will give up all his liberties for security deserves neither.

It’s awesome how we came up with the abbreviation PATRIOT act. Which made very good sense.

Too bad it was all based on lies regarding weapons of mass destruction. Needless lives lost because George W was upset someone threatened his daddy.

Sandyberry, don't forget the gullible people that don't have a clue what these so-called leaders are doing, but will blindly support anyone holding a USA flag and smiling.
