- description: During last night's Miss USA pageant, Miss Alabama Mary-Margaret McCord defended the National Service Agency's surveillance tactics that have become a national controversy over the last two weeks, telling judges she would prefer to be potentially subjected to snooping rather than worry about her safety from violent attacks. Pageant judge Wendie Malick asked the eventual runner-up whether the government tracking of phone records constitutes "an invasion of privacy or [is] necessary to keep our country safe?" "It's sad that if we go to the movies, or to the airport, or even to the mall, that we have to worry about our safety," McCord replied. "I would rather someone track my phone messages and feel safe wherever I go than feel like they're encroaching on my privacy."
