At the time, the Patriot Act had good intentions and still does. Given the gravity of what we were dealing we had to do something to ease the restrictions for intel gathering. However, with anything that was intended for good, someone will abuse it and make it bad.
I don't want to give up any of my rights for security or safety. Hitler would have been allowed to do everything he did with just the patriot act. Now the sunset safety was taken off. Just because the Government may or may not use that power doesn't mean they should have that power to begin with.
