Yes, if it will protect us.
No!
A warrant serves as a third party observer.
Mr Bin Laden you’re free to go as the law cannot punish you for recorded statements made by you.
All though the wire tapping was with merit it was….. without warrant.
And please…….. Clean up your F@<!k!ng mess in the Subway.
No.
No wiretap without a warrant because to secure a warrant we have to have reasonable cause to believe that the phone being tapped will yield information about a crime that has happened or someone who has committed a crime. Anything else is nothing but eavesdropping.
If you are willing to surrender your freedom and liberty for security, then you deserve neither freedom, liberty nor security. Why? Giving up freedom and liberty will only provide a false sense of security because without freedom and liberty there is no security.
This says it much better than I ever could;
“People willing to trade their freedom for temporary security deserve neither and will lose both.”
- Benjamin Franklin (paraphrased).
Amen.
Let's see, so both PapaDawg and Poot are against it. Getting their IP… alright adding them to the "person of interest" list…
And if you do anything illegal with your little "person of interest" list, I will come out of retirement and put you so far deep into a federal prison they will have to pipe sunlight to you . . .
There is no law that I know of that is against keeping a list of people you do not know, there are laws if you do something illegal with that list.
NOW do you know why warrant-less wiretapping is illegal?
And yes, in my not-so-humble opinion, that part (along with some of the other parts) of the "Patriot Act" was and still is in violation of the United States Constitution. And why the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate signed off on that thing is beyond my level of comprehension!
