Why would they make the rule if they don't plan to ever use it? What people seem to overlook with these "special powers" is that somebody has to decide who the bad guys are. Today, you think you agree with the people who would make that decision. If people you disagree with were elected, the rule could still be used. Think ahead a little. The government doesn't deserve this much power, they aren't that trustworthy.
