I'll leave it up to you to run that around in your synapses for a bit.
Having the writ suspended actually is a big deal, just consider that.


KK, you misunderstood me. I wasn't arguing that because it hasn't impacted me, it isn't important. I just don't know that much about what freedoms have been taken and wanted to know some specific examples where Americans have been harmed. Your theoretical example of fishermen being arrested because of their outdoor skills did little to convince me
