If this person is a real lawyer, he/she/it could have referred to a real case , where this sort of "gross miscarriage of justice" occurred, where the FISA/PatAct led to the arrest of innocent, or mostly innocent: it's unsubstantiated.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11567400697675996283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5592514.post-27442159642631558642008-06-26T20:50:00.000-07:002008-06-26T20:50:00.000-07:00The yard-sticks are incongruent.
