Score one for Liberty! Today a Federal Judge rules NSA spying unconstitutional!
Klayman
v. Obama was settled today and I'm happy to say the government's
program of collecting domestic phone communication records was ruled
unconstitutional by a federal court... and it's about time.
Judge Richard Leon said the surveillance program was a violation of privacy rights.
His exact words were...
"I
cannot imagine a more 'indiscriminate' and 'arbitrary invasion' than
this systematic and high-tech collection and retention of personal data
on virtually every citizen..."
He went on to say that, "such a
program infringes on 'that degree of privacy' that the Founders
enshrined in the Fourth Amendment."
Judge Leon also said the
Justice Department failed to demonstrate that collecting the information
had helped to eliminate ANY terrorist attacks...
WIth all that
said .. and a Federal Judge officially ruling NSA spying
unconstitutional...Do you think the spying program will end? What are
YOUR thoughts on the ruling?
