Sounds like modern day "Salem Witch Trials"....without the trial.... But back then the trial was flawed to begin with because, like the patriot act, anyone could be tried simply by accusation(s)....

Back during the Salem Witch Trials....mostly women were accused of witchcraft for whatever reason the accuser had.... Once at trial, the accuser(s) would state their opinion(s) as to why they believe the person on trial performs witchcraft.... After being found guilty, which a majority of the time the accused was, they would either burn at the stake or be hung....

Now today we have the "Patriot Act".... Above, let's replace the word "witchcraft" with the patriot acts word "terrorism" and also swap "burn at the stake or hung" with "detained indefinitely", then you can see how this is a modern day version of something like the Salem Witch Trials....

Just wanted to point out the erie similarity between this today and what happened then.... History repeats itself, just in different forms....

Be safe and take care....
