I been on the American civil liberties union web site, reading up on the Patriot act. since sept 11 Bush pushed this thru. I know {D] and {R] pass it. and I found out John Kerry voted for it. Im still reading about the Patriot act. as I see it could go againts any one. white, black, red, brown, just not one race.

You are correct. The patriot act is not a racial issue. It is an issue that effects us all. At this present moment in time....none of us have the right to a lawyer and the president can if he ever desires....have any american citizen picked up and hauled away with no one ever hearing about it or ever even knowing about it. This reality is sobering to say the least.
