There's no point in taking anyone into custody if you can't hold them. So you might as well not give them the option of surrender.

The alternative to Gitmo is a sniper.

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.

In the latest effort to deconstruct and destroy the United States, the Supreme Court has decided that a foreign terrorist captured on foreign territory trying to kill Americans has just as many constitutional rights as a Wal-Mart shoplifter.

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.

Area weapons are just as effective.

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.

"There's no point in taking anyone into custody if you can't hold them."

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.

“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.

Our Supreme Court Sucks and should be dismantled.

COURT DECISION WILL KILL PEOPLE

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.

Either that, or turn them over to the local authorities in Iraq and/or Afghanistan for prosecution (and probably execution). My guess is enemy combatants would much prefer Gitmo and military tribunals to the other options......

Roberts is a shameful disappointment. He should reign now in disgrace.

Well, when you put it that way, I have no problem with the court's ruling.
