I honestly don't see the connection between the Patriot Act and property damage under the guise of political activism. It seems like you (sixate) are trying to create a strawman from this action and then apply it to the Patriot Act to claim some kind of hipocracy. If you want to defend the Patriot Act, great, but don't try to defend it by the strawman. Inparticular I take issue with the phrase
"The simple fact is these people would be against the Patriot Act, but they feel as though you don't have the right to drive an SUV and spend your money on whatever you want. Are you willing to bet on the fact that they support the Patriot Act? "
and the way you somewhat slyly transition from attempting to explain their (the vandals) beliefs on the Patriot Act to anyone who disagrees with the Act, with this statement
"When people whine and cry about it violating their rights they shouldn't violate other people's rights to spend their money on whatever vehicle they want to drive."
And as you stated earlier "Are you gonna tell me that's a logical thought process?"
In attempting to show that all people who disagree with the Patriot agree with the vandals' actions, you show a lot of bias and the mindset that you are working from, not to mention you have demonstrated that you can pull a sly debate trick *applause.*
