Unconstitutional: The War on Our Civil Liberties

I see the Patriot Act as a way for the government to spy on people and stay way more involved than need be. I do believe that the act was covered by saying it is necessary because of terrorism. it slightly tarnishes the freedoms that America has tried so hard to instill. It is an invasion of privacy and that is not what America is about. The act makes it a lot easier to arrest people just because they are immigrants and more recently it is trying to be imposed on to people who are not immigrants. In a certain way I'm sure some people have a superficial feeling of safety, but in reality and in my opinion it is just a show for a different purpose that benefits the government more. So in my opinion the act is completely unconstitutional.
