What do you think about the fact that America has, basically, a 'secret police' ever since the Dept. of Homeland Security was established in Nov. of 2002?

Think about it. If a person is accused of being a terrorist, or of being involved with terrorists – representatives of Homeland Security can pick them up & they essentially just disappear. They have no rights to an attorney, there is no bail, they can be held indefinitely without being brought to trial. No one is permitted to see them, their families are not permitted to know where they are, no one is allowed to know the specifics of any charges. The power of Homeland Security rivals that of the old, cold war, Russian KGB. When you combine the power of the Patriot Act of Oct. 2001 & the Dept. of Homeland Security – the people of America have surrendered their rights that the original constitution gave them.
