I've just seen a recent influx in people making the comparisons on the news and the internet the past few months and I don't understand why.

Way to edit out the second sentence. I'll spell it out for everyone.

THE GOVERNMENT HAS BEEN LISTENING TO YOUR PHONE CALLS, READING YOUR INTERNET LOGS AND LETTERS, AND ARRESTING PEOPLE WITHOUT TRIAL ALL IN THE NAME OF THE WAR ON TERROR FOR YEARS NOW. THIS IS NOTHING NEW. PEOPLE NEED TO STOP MAKING STATEMENTS GOING "OMGS! DID YOU KNOW THEY CAN TRACK OUR CELLPHONES AND LISTEN TO OUR CALLS?" ITS NOT NEWS.

HUURRRRR DUUURRRRR I edited it out for a reason. That was the part of your statement i wished to address

I understand that this isn't something new, at no point did I say anything about those things being new news. All I said was that it bugs the **** out of me, and has for quite a while. Now quit being an asshole and realize we're on the same damn side Ethan.
