Unfortunately, governments ( unlike protesters) have the capability to act on those determinations.

My anger at the ignorance of one side does not eliminate my anger at the other. I find the move ludicrous and completely unnecessary. There is nothing happening in the here and now that would dictate such a move. It's a "hey let's sneak this in there" kind of thing. It's bullshit. That doesn't make it okay to represent it as something it is not. This involves military action against specific people. There are actually idiots on facebook who think it is revoking all due process. As I said before, the language leaves it open, so I can see the cause for concern and share it. I simply see no need to misinterpret it.
