Patriot Act Part Duex!

USA Patriot Act II would make news gathering a crime

Think the first Patriot Act was a civil rights and personal privacy tragedy? Just wait until you see Patriot Act II. Section 102 of the police state bill would make it a crime to engage in any information gathering, meaning that people who gather news headlines on the Internet would suddenly be deemed criminals and terrorists. Essentially, the law would destroy any last illusions of freedom in the United States. It would turn the USA into a communist-style police state, where no person is truly free.

i believe that the Patriot Act II was dropped, after it became quite clear that it wouldn't pass... unless they've started talking about starting it up again.

Haven't they left this bill behind? I thought they introduced a new one, or were going to, that was a combo of Patriot 1 and 2 that is the most absurd violation of our rights to date. I just don't remember the name. It had one of those 'clever' acronyms that asshat politicians think up in the ever increasing span of time that they do nothing with....

here's what the mentioned section of patriot II says:

"FISA currently defines "agent of a foreign power" to include a person who knowingly engages in clandestine intelligence gathering activities on behalf of a foreign power--but only if those activities "involve or may involve a violation of" federal criminal law. Requiring the additional showing that the intelligence gathering violates the laws of the United States is both unnecessary and counterproductive, as such activities threaten the national security regardless of whether they are illegal. This provision would expand the definitions contained in 50 U.S.C. ? 1801(b)(2)(A) & (B). Any person who engages in clandestine intelligence gathering activities for a foreign power would qualify as an "agent of a foreign power," regardless of whether those activities are federal crimes."

basically what that part says is that clandestinely gathering intelligence for a foreign power (which would now include international terrorists under section 101) can make you an "agent of a foreign power".

i have no idea, from reading the bill, where the author of that story got the idea that "people who gather news headlines on the Internet would suddenly be deemed criminals and terrorists."

Can the USA possibly get more screwed up? The answer is Yes, and the government is working hard at it.

Yes but a foreign power has been redefined to include sleeper cells and individuals not attached to a known terrorist organization. So essentially, if they don't like you and you gather news, they can make you a criminal.

It says "clandestine intelligence", not categorizing publically available news headlines.

From your thread, http://www.ratical.org/ratville/CAH/PA2draft.html#Sec102summ

Section 101, "This provision would expand FISA's definition of "foreign power" to include all persons, regardless of whether they are affiliated with an international terrorist group, who engage in international terrorism."

The bill leaves tremendous potential for abuse by those in authority

The fact that they have already associated drug use with terrorism should give anyone an idea of how schizophrenic their approach to 'terrorism' is, let alone how broad their definition of a 'terrorist' will likely continue to expand as they see fit

i've heard about some television ads. i haven't heard of any laws or judicial rulings linking drug use and terrorism.
