As I was driving to work this morning I thought of perhaps one of the best (i.e. worst) examples of unconstitutional actions by our federal government;
Brief 6: Shortly after the new year began in 2012 President Obama signed the National Defense Authorization Act. Tucked into the bill is a provision that many believe greatly expands the ability of the federal government take you into custody and hold you indefinitely;

Harry told him CIA estimated that total American S.O.A. prison membership already at over five thousand and climbing. That’s five thousand suicidal terrorists sitting around in the slam every day thinking up new ways to kill Americans.”
