Now here's a 'catch and release' program of which I would approve.

The alternative to Gitmo is a sniper.
Rock. On.
Yes, this decision will likely result in the death of more of our soldiers, but in the eyes of the 5 lawyers sitting on the supreme bench, these will only be the sons and daughters of the little people.
The liberals think this is a good thing.
That's because they're America-hating idiots.
Sorry, Obama, but if the shoe fits, cram it up your backside.
I like Mr Lonsberry's thinking!
The catch and release philosophy shows how sportsmanlike we are.

Rough ‘em up a little and slip a tiny locater beacon into them amidst the moderate to mild beating. Send ‘em on their merry way and track their every move.
Now here's a 'catch and release' program of which I would approve.
Which brings up another point. Not only has the US Supreme Court paved the way for a national "no prisoners" policy for the United States, it has also expressed a preference for slaughtering vast numbers of folks in the vicinity of the people we need to shoot at.
That Ruthy Ginzburg is one bloodthirsty little byche isn't she.
Precisely.
And I think all the remaining "detainees" (liberal-speak for "Terrorist M.F.") should be released immediately.
I've got a spot picked out in West Texas, and a few friends who can be counted on to hunt them down like the rabid dogs they are.
Take no prisoners.
“A lot of these guys will go free, and people may well die as a result.”
That doesn’t make a bit of sense. If these guys are guilty of terrorists acts against the United States then try them in court, show the proof, then hang them upon a guilty verdict. If they did no such thing then they do get to go free. How hard is that to understand?
We have lost our minds when we think freedom and liberty is only for us and never the guy next to us. Imagine if our legal system treated you that way: Never a court date, a trial or a disposition. You simply languish in jail forever because someone said you might have done something.
World War II “Take No Prisoners”.
End of the story.
Our Supreme Court Sucks and should be dismantled.
Gitmo is not a jail. It’s a POW camp for Unlawful Combatents. This ruling is insane. Should N. Korean and VC be able to sue us for taking them prisoner in those undeclared wars?
Aside from any consideration of the actual issue, I have a problem with this liberal-speak title. It appeals to emotion, to consequences, which I can see Congress doing. But the Supreme Court is supposed to deal with one thing only: constitutionality. To ask them to consider such non-constitutional issues is to ask them to be activist judges, even if such consideration results in the ruling you want.
Since when did we start fighting wars by using lawyers in a courtroom? Clinton used this tactic with the first World Trade Center bombing. That worked well, didn't it.
Be careful of your terminology. A "POW" has specific rights in accordance with the Geneva Convention per his status as a captured lawful combatant. Gitmo is a detention center for unlawful combatants.
If these guys are guilty of terrorists acts against the United States then try them in court, show the proof...
...blow your network, get your agents killed, and never find an agent again.
The constitution was written to institutionalize the rights of citizens, who not only enjoy the rights of Americans, but are ALSO subject to the full range of American laws and to investigation by American law enforcement agencies - not those who travel the world using the anonymity of fictional documents and the cover of hospitable foreign regimes to avoid the eyes of justice.
Did you read the entire article? It explains why the evidence against them can not/will not be used in a trial. They will be released “for lack of evidence”....
UNLEASH hell, we can start with telling these bastards what we think about their ruling.
