Wah, rupanya anda yang kurang teliti membaca berita. Bahwa Patriot Act itu *tidak berhasil* menangkap teroris, itu salah-kaprah. Tidak menangkap teroris BUKAN berarti GAGAL menangkap teroris, atau Patriot Act itu defektif. Sebab-musabab yang lebih mungkin lagi: memangnya tidak ada teroris yang berhasil masuk negeri Amerika. Atau calon2 teroris yang sembunyi dalam masyarakat Amerika TIDAK BERANI BERKUTIK, sebab takut sama Patriot Act. Buktinya, sampai hari ini TIDAK ADA SATU JUGA kejadian teror sesudahnya 9/11. Jadi alasan anda itu justru merupakan BUKTI bahwa Patriot Act telah BERHASIL menjalankan tugasnya.
Yang saya bilang, Patriot Act supaya diperketat, agar bisa mendeportasi orang2 seperti johny_indon dan andrea rae, yang kalau dibiarkan hidup di AS cepat atau lambat bakalan menjadi teroris. Jadi, lebih baik cepat2 dikenali dan dideportasi. Sekian, Ir. H.L.
