The issue continues to create concern because the rights of the American public are being ignored
as they sift through the piles of private messages and emails hoping just hoping they might get lucky and find something useful.
Really, there are better and more appropriate ways of collecting information than this and I find it surprising that as a country that respects all of its peoples rights no matter color,gender,and etc.
They allow this flagrant behavior on the reasoning that a terrorist group or whatever are having secret conversations via email or for any other reason is ridiculous.
If the "bad" guys were planning on carrying through with their vile plans then what makes the government think they'd sloppily organize through emails and phone calls rather than in person, which would be the safer and smarter way?
No, instead they try to sneak around and be crafty which in return hurts the public they are supposed to be helping and supporting.

Screw the N.S.A, they are being an unfair burden to our rights to have our personal space. This questions this nations freedom under the gov't. I bet America's people feel violated because of all this. The N.S.A needs to find a different way to catch foreign enemy intelligence instead of using this nations people to affiliate with that problem. Even Ex-President Clinton had his email intruded on. This needs to stop.
