I agree with everyone of your points. It's in a word, ridiculous.

As for police state... it's beyond me that we've come this far. *shudder*—I’ll never understand why we work so hard to undermine the very people who need our help the most.

It's a really scary mode of thought where we imagine that the people that we trust to keep us safe are perfect and should be able to do whatever they want with us. PS. Hold still while I tag you for the six weird things meme.

I feel nervous of what is going on for the first time in my life. I have always felt secure in my rights, but, no more. It is terrifying. I utterly agree.
