I think these images will work well in persuading as well as enlightening. The one image has various violations of the patriot in the image itself. Another is a political cartoon criticizing the lack of effectiveness of the Patriot Act, along with who is searched. The third image shows that people are taking action and that more people should, because the act is unconstitutional.

yes - I was drawn to these; I think images are very powerful, and in conjunction with text make an argument that text alone can't make.

nice images, they convey your argument well. I like the one about the kid being spied on lol.

These are very powerful images, and they convey a certain emotion as well. The first image is especially powerful, the amount of anger, and energy is amazing. Great choices!

I like these images. They really draw your attention in and make you think about what each is saying.
