How does it matter?

  If years after the Snowden revelation, no one has gotten a court to rule that blatant widespread constitutional violations took place at the NSA, you might want to reconsider your claim that there were blatant violations.

    You're disingenuous so I'll just not bother anymore.

      You're stating that the organization "as a whole" is "blatantly" violating the Constitution. Don't you see why your statement is being challenged? It's largely baseless. At most, a small number of programs that the NSA has used have been shown to maybe be unconstitutional.

        That is complete horseshit and you know it. I just made a statement and a decision. He's free to disagree with my assessment, and I'm free to not give a fuck. We're both free to move on with our lives. But then you decide to ride in on your High Horse to save the day! Earlier you reprimanded me for saying "shut up", which is just fucking retarded to begin with, and you're engaging in a double standard because his posts were clearly not "substantive" (and thus against the arbitrarily enforced rules). Just so you know, whenever you ban someone for calling things as they are, and trying to get people think for themselves, you're essentially supporting your own enslavement. You're probably a psychopath yourself, of course, but most likely not protected from the potentially perpetual tyranny the world will slide into if sanity doesn't spread widely enough.
