This is the best part:
- start -
Lisa Graves, the American Civil Liberties Union's senior counsel for
legislative strategy, said the lack of a documented case of abuse doesn't mean
the law doesn't violate civil liberties. She said the Justice Department's
inspector general reported that 7,000 people have complained of abuse and
countless others don't even know they've been subjected to a search because the
law requires that the searches be kept secret.
"The real problem is that these record searches take place behind closed doors
and are kept secret forever," she said. Graves said the ACLU wants the
government to show evidence of a connection to terrorist activity before being
allowed to search financial, medical and other records.

So , by the government reasoning that if no one complains there are no abuses:
if you don't know you were raped because you were knocked unconsious, that means
you weren't raped at all, right?
