Ok, I see that the bullets are umm larger than I thought.
Thanks for pointing that out to me. Now...Im not a WASP at all
Im a White Anglo Saxon Catholic or WASC. 
That being said. You are worried (or at least it appears to me) by what "may" be interpreted into it. The fact remains, that however you slice it. Honest law abiding citizens who do not associate with criminals or suspect persons are not going to be affected. The average Joe Schmoe or even Achmed Falaffel isn't going to be targeted. The act hasn't done away with any civil liberties that I can see. I realize as a lawyer you have to be concerned about that 12 hour issue. Some times 12 hours isn't enough. I still say there are steps that need to be taken for national and civil security against terrorists...AND there are a LOT of people (especially around universities) that are just the kind of people who should be rounded up and have their visa's revoked.
That being said...let me take some time to wade through this muss and see what is up.
