Because by it's very nature, it's a slippery slope, It works the exact same with banning a particular part of free speech because it is too offensive, soon, another part of free speech will be banned. So what then happens if the NSA decides to overstep its bounds, which it already has(Snowden), when will you be surveilled and harassed for saying something the NSA doesn't like? It truly is only a matter of time until every aspect of your life is monitored if organizations like the NSA are condoned by the populace.
