Not if they take no prisoners . . . then there’s no problem.
Apparently this nation doesn’t have the stomach for that, anymore.
” today’s Supreme Court ruling benefiting suspected terrorists is deeply disappointing..”
Correction -
today’s Supreme Court ruling benefiting suspected terrorists is proof that the court is infested with leftists.
That’s better.
A lot has changed since I've had Civics [there's a term for all you old timers] back in the late 50's.
How, or can we, remove these idiots from the bench?
The SCOTUS liberals once again prove their profound anti-americanism.
This nation’s lawyers want to sap the funds of the government by being involved in court cases they have never been involved in before.
A very scary situation occurring when you have a Scalia, a Roberts and an Alito. See the importance of having the GOP in power even if we can’t stand the one in power?
Supreme court judges rule for a lifetime and those rulings affect each and every one of us the rest of our lives.
McCain was just saying why he he was right when he voted for justices Ginsberg and Briar (sic) not one minute ago...
GEESH!
Hold your nose and vote for McCain. The Supreme Court is at stake and depends on keeping Nobama out.
McCain probably agrees with this revolting decision too.
Kevin, thanks for your words which accurately portray the disappointment of all of us who have served to protect and defend the Constitution.
Now more than ever we need to make sure that the Demoncrat party gets no where near the White House, lest they have the ability to re-stack the Supreme Court with activist anti-Constitution justices.
Stay strong my friend.
And yet some on here will use their vote to allow Obama to appoint justices for the next 4 to 8 years out of spite for McCain.
This is the consequence of losing elections. Expect much, much worse if Obama wins.
“Apparently this nation doesn’t have the stomach for that, anymore.”
I sure as hell wouldn’t take prisoners . . . can you imagine reading Miranda rights to some scumbag who’d rather cut your head off? I’d kill the bastard.
True. Your candidate doesn’t suck quite as bad as their candidate.
the prisoners should be left in the care of the 5 justices, and the ACLU. since they love them so.
More likely they simply won't be captured.
Secondly, there's no guarantee that the prisoners in Guantanamo will be released into the general U.S. prison population. They could be put in a special place of detention awaiting trial. North Dakota sounds good to me; lots of cold there. One step could be to place the Guantanamo prisoners in the hands of the U.S. District Court for Washington D.C., which will overload that court's calendar.
This doesn't directly affect the troops on the battlefield. They don't arrest, anyway; they detain. Federal law enforcement officials arrest and U.S. Attorneys file charges.
The only problem will be defense lawyers of the radical kind, who will try to spill classified information on ways, means, techniques, and sources to harm the U.S. government. However, they won't get their way in every court, and although Federal judges vary from the lenient to the severe, no Federal judge appreciates being make a clown. Few Judge Itos are on the Federal bench.
I am willing to work with this.
“And yet some on here will use their vote to allow Obama to appoint justices for the next 4 to 8 years out of spite for McCain.”
Yeah, where are all the loud-mouthed anti-McCain posters today?
