Patriot Act Arrest Edit Meaning

1.

(n.) Any arrest without a warrant or witnessed crime made without any charges filed, no access to a lawyer, no civil protections, and no possibility of a trial in the foreseeable future, made possible by the PATRIOT Act (a US law that is still the cause of polarizing controversy) and used to accuse innocent people of being terrorists because they work as a cashier in a store that a captured terrorist used to shop at (or something equally pointless).

Every time that a Patriot Act arrest is made, America walks further along the path of self-destruction.
