RE: I wish I'd said it.



It is radically and completely alien to expectations we have in this 
country anyway for separation of powers, for fair processes. We let 
known criminals free on technicalities, like violations of their 
rights, egregious procedureal errors, illegally gathered evidence-we 
believe not only in the rule of law but fairness.  And an economically 
motivated big brother snooping around with police discovery powers-
apparently discovering all sorts of things in the name of commerce, 
isn't in our traditions.

You should be glad you didn't say this, since it was foolish and wrong.
