This post is in response to afoigkn's (whatever the heck his name is ) poll. Liberals always seem to say that we conservatives support the PA, but I just voted in favor of doing away with it. If you're a conservative are you for it or against it? Thanks

Please tell me which provisions of the Act actually helped to prevent attacks. How do you know there would have been another attack if it weren't for the Act?
Maybe some components are appropriate, but the thing is wayyyy too broad and intrusive.
