(note)...we have definately brought in a lot of new laws that never would have been considered pre-9/11...
Yes they would have, and they were. There have been numerous forms of "sedition acts" and "patriot acts" passed at various points in US history. During the early years, during every large war, and some other random times. We sure are a paranoid lot... The bombings of 9/11 are just more in a long series of unrelated trigger events.
