This isn't the first time that towns, villages, and municipalities have passed resolutions of this nature. Arcata isn't the only one discussing the Patriot Act, either. My city's Common Council has an anti-patriot act resolution on the table as well.
The argument against the Act, if you read all 300 pages of the shit, is (I believe) that it infinges on the rights of these municipalities, and uses their resources for Federal purposes.
Regardless, to come to the defense of this horrid legislation is shameful. Strike it down, any way possible. Hurrah Arcata!
