4. QUICK FOUR CORNERS Respond to the following quote: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety” - Ben Franklin

5. 9/11 & THE PATRIOT ACT USA PATRIOT Act: Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 ● Signed by President Bush in 2001 ● Extended by President Obama in 2011

6. CONTROVERSIAL ASPECTS OF THE PATRIOT ACT  Roving wiretaps  Searches of business records  Detention of immigrants  Conducting surveillance of individuals suspected of terrorist- related activities

7. INFORMATION SHARING Supporters say the provisions have greatly enhanced information sharing within the FBI, and with the intelligence community at large. Critics warn that unrestricted sharing could lead to the development of massive databases about citizens who are not the targets of criminal investigations.

8. ROVING WIRETAPS The government says roving wiretaps are needed to deal with technologically sophisticated terrorists. Critics say the language of the act could lead to privacy violations of anyone who comes into casual contact with a suspect.

9. ACCESS TO RECORDS The provision allows investigators to obtain books, records, papers, documents and other items sought "in connection with" a terror investigation. Critics attack the breadth of the provision, saying the law could be used to demand the reading records of library or bookstore patrons.

10. "SNEAK AND PEAK" WARRANTS Supporters say this provision has already allowed investigators to search the houses of drug dealers and other criminals without providing notice that might have jeopardized an investigation. Critics say the provision allows the use of "sneak and peek" warrants for even minor crimes, not just terror and espionage cases.

11. MATERIAL SUPPORT Supporters say it helps cut off the support networks that make terrorism possible. Critics say the provision could lead to guilt by association.
