This is an excellent documentary, and breaks down the chilling and systematic erosion of our rights under the constitution. It strips away any illusion we may have of our privacy, our rights of free speech and protection against unreasonable search and seizure. The events of 9-11 gave license to our government to completely ignore the laws in so many ways, from inventing intelligence to justify a war we should never have gotten into, torture in violation of the Geneva Convention, the rendition programs, the National Defense Authorization Act, wholesale surveillance of all of us, all the time. John Kiriakou,Thomas Drake, Jessalyn Radack, William Binney, Jeffrey Ster;ling, now Ed Snowden, and so many more, persecuted for standing up for what is right, vilified by the media and under this administration, charged and pursued in a vicious way under the espionage act, a complete travesty of justice. We are no longer the most free country in the world. We live in a place that is one step away from being a turnkey totalitarian state. Our government ruined these people's lives because they didn't want their illegal, unconstitutional activities brought to light. Definitely watch this.

God Bless those who see the truth and are not afraid to speak it. What happens to these people of substance PROVES how corrupt the United States Federal Government truly is.
