I vaguely remember some muslims that were arrested by, I think the FBI for aiding terrorists via a charity. They said they thought the charity was legit. FBI says terrorist front. I don't know how that turned out but that is my concern. They have been calling environmentalists terrorists. Will they use this law to detain these people? Who gets to decide it the group or person is a terrorist? Is this addressed in the bill? I have read so many contradiciting opinions about this bill, I have no idea whether it is as bad as is said or no.
I can't find where to turn on spellcheck on this browser so forgive any errors.
