For a second here lets just forget that is entrapment, don't we have enough things to deal with with our war on terror and pissing on everyones rights to spend any time at all bothering an old stoner for selling a bong? The government went as far as to set up a fake head shop and ask him theirselves to ship them bongs with his picture on them. One case in particular I plan to bring up is how Tommy Chong was arrested for drug paraphanelia. *The Fourteenth Ammendment (ALL PERSONS are entitled to protection of the laws) *The Eighth Ammendment (cruel or unusual punishment)
#Scarlet begonias sublime trial#
*The Sixth Ammendment (has a lot to do with trial processes, impartial jury, etc.) *The Fifth Ammendment (i guess that means no more due process.)
*The Fourth Ammendment (now they dont need search warrants?) *The First Ammendment (freedom of religion and speech to name a few!) According to the ACLU the Patriot Act is threatening the following ammendments: In the research aspect of this paper the ACLU has been more help than any other source. I was under the impression that the Patriot Act was just going to be used against terrorists, but we're using it to get information we normall wouldnt have been able to and using it against our own citizens who have no affiliation with any terror groups. I also plan to give examples of the Patriot Act being used to arrest and prosecute people that aren't terrorists. My goal in writing this paper is to clearly state what the Patriot Act says and what rights it takes away. It's really disenchanting to see out government destroy our liberties.
As long as I can remember I have been under the impression that the first and fourth ammentments were two vital aspects of the constitution. When I read Homeland the last chapter said that the Patriot Act has negated much of the first and fourth ammendments. After finishing the book Homeland I knew that this was a subject worth writing about, and I knew that I would learn a lot about it if I had to write about it. For my third and final paper I plan to write about the Patriot Act.
