Why shouldn’t gvmt. listen to your calls?

Posted June 17, 2013 4:40 am

Unbelievable, we have close to 3,000 people murdered in a single day, more than were killed in the attack on Pearl Harbor, by people that hate us and we are worried and hurt that our government is looking at our phone records. These same people that want to kill us are constantly planning to do us harm and we are hurt that our government is spying on us.

How do you expect to find these people and stop them? They don’t wear a black T-shirt with a big T printed on it for “Terrorist,” You listen to those ACLU people and panic that we are all going to be in danger from the government.

If you are not doing something that you should not be doing, why worry about it? As far as I am concerned, the government can listen in on my calls, can check my email and whatever else. I am not doing any wrong and therefore am not afraid. Are you? And if you are, why?
