These people are in this country. As such they are subject to our criminal laws, not the laws of war, regardless of how appropriate it might be to switch them into the other category.

So you think they should be treated just as other terrorists caught in this country have been treated, and executed? My question is how many of them have we executed according to law. Unless I’m quite mistaken, the answer is none.

In fact, I don’t believe we have legally executed any terrorists overseas, either. We’ve killed a good many of them, but to my knowledge none have been executed by process of law.

Here’s your answer ... notice if you will the ‘legally’ the smarmy poster included. His ilk would put Osama bin Laden in prison, rather than cap the sonofabitch. I have no use for such posters
