NSA HAS Been Snooping on Muslims, and Others

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5GlMMv0bOAQ As I've posted before on this blog, the U.S. surveillance state has been targeting persons due to their political views. I had at the time felt that the only persons who'd have cause to be concerned would be those whose ideology is either notably left, or right of center. As Noam Chomsky put it, "The Smart way to keep people passive, and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum." http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/15454-the-smart-way-to-keep-people-passive-and-obedient-is But now it turns out that the federal secret police has been focusing upon people's religious views as well, even those whom are members of the two major political parties of Democrats, and Republicans, such as the two attorneys in the above referenced news segment. The very repression that those such as my maternal grandmother, may she rest in peace, feared was transpiring under the Clinton administration has since come to fruition during the two subsequent administrations of George W. Bush, and Barack H. Obama Jr. I'm concerned though that a plurality of the American people will remain complacent in the face of such encroachment upon our civil rights, and liberties, as they do not relate to the particular people reported to have been affected by such actions. They might not feel that the established political power will turn there hostile sights upon them. All that I have to post in response to such apathy is this quote by Pastor Niemoller http://www.goodreads.com/quotes/18468-first-they-came-for-the-communists-and-i-did-not.
