[QUOTE="mattyftm"][QUOTE="jer_1"]Whats wrong with that, for Americans at least, is that is in violation of the constitution and specifically the bill of rights. I guess since you have basically resigned your "constitution" then i guess its fine and dandy for your authorities to walk all over you in the UK. However, America is vastly different in intent. We arent INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY here not the opposite...

I'm not saying you treat them as guilty before you have proved it, you treat them as suspects, and track them to find proof of guilt, or innocence. There is a huge diference between suspecting someone and calling them guilty.
What is this, double speak day? Treating them as suspects is basically one in the same as considering them guilty before providing any proof. If you truly think its better off to watch and monitor every move people make every day then I guess you are gonna be a great addition to the structure of a one world government. I tend to say THINK FOR YOURSELF, dont let your fears of "terrorist" implanted by the BBC or Reuters dominate the way you think. Your rights to freedom are FAR more important than a bit of TEMPORARY safety...
I don't have fears of terrorists, because I am confident the police are on top of it through tracking people. Here in the UK we had a load of people arrested (and just recently convicted) of ploting to blow up a load of planes flying accross the atlantic. They found them by tracking them. If they hadn't have done that there would have been a huge dissaster and everyone would be crying "why didn't the police/government do more to stop this sort of thing".
I don't see how tracked someone impares your right to freedom. You are not being stopped from going places, or saying things - you still have freedom, you are just being watched exercising your freedom.
