" Just shoot them and be done with it."
To my knowledge we have never had a situation where the Federal government systematically executed people without trials in our history. Do you think Al Quaida is the biggest threat we have faced?
To your knowledge, have you ever heard of military trials and summary execution?
There are so many examples of such from the Revolutionary War to Korea, that I doubt your veracity.
And thats what we are writing about here.
Speedy military trials & punishment.
Not the ACLU trying to neuter us with endless civilian complaints.
