I suppose you think there's a downside to this....I just can't find it.

I heard a speaker decrying the Patriot Act yesterday. He was pretty miffed because, according to its provisions, a group that blocked a road with a protest MIGHT GET SUED if they prevented an ambulance from carrying out its mission!!!

He was also angry because other provisions hadn't resulted in terrorist arrests--it had only stopped "a few thousand money launderers and illegal immigrants."

I can see why so many people hate the Patriot Act.
