The jail issue might be seperate. I would say if they are innocent of the crime they should be released.
As far as the middle road. Sure there would be. Habeus corpus has been suspended before and there have been some scholars that have pointed out that some security measures were self correcting after the a war was over.
The problem people are seeing now is that we have security measures inplace but no official war or state of emergency, just an intangible promise that there will be future attacks on Americans.
In other words people see these laws not ending, but instead being added to.
Again. I have no idea what we can do with it.
I don't brush off the surveillance issue, I have never liked it and again don't know what to do about it. I have a reasonable expectation of attaining some success in life and I certainly don't want to jeapordize it by appearing on some some list or in some file.

Yes, by your logic, we should also free people from jails. They actually have a movement for that. Nobody is saying throw everyone in jail - but they're saying some people should be in jail.
And I didn't see a thread on previous surveillance plus you asked for precedence so I'm not sure why you're brushing it off with a "I never liked surveillance to begin with" now.
