Well no, see, Finding #8 says:

"(8) Any measure taken to prevent violent radicalization, homegrown terrorism, and ideologically based violence and homegrown terrorism in the United States should not violate the constitutional rights, civil rights, or civil liberties of United States citizens or lawful permanent residents."

So it's all OK, see, they have our best interests in mind and we should support them unquestioningly. But here you are asking questions. What are you, some kind of home-grown terrorist?

Also, "c) Auditing Mechanism- The Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Officer of the Department of Homeland Security [] shall develop and implement an auditing mechanism to ensure that compliance with this subtitle does not violate the constitutional rights, civil rights, or civil liberties of any racial, ethnic, or religious group, and shall include the results of audits under such mechanism in its annual report to Congress required under section 705.'."

See? They'll make sure it will all happen with all due respect for our rights, and the Civil Rights commissar will ensure that any measures and restrictions that are taken against any actual dangerous group will be also applied to oppress everyone else equally so as to avoid any racial profiling. Politically correct fascism; it's the new style, sure to become all the rage in any fashionable country.

This is an important step forward in the proper development of this country. We have never had a proper Stasi, and while the BATFE has been serving well in the interim, it is just getting too busy to handle those duties on the scale we clearly need in order to keep Americans properly trained and conditioned.

Seriously, yes, let's all do what we can to fight this.
