Some not very deep thinkers here. Can't seem to grasp the precedent establish here.
I agree with you, but if the guy’s status as a U.S. citizen is now being called into question then I’m not sure there’s a precedent being established in this case at all.
I grasped it just fine during the Terri Schiavo episode. "Due process" is whatever -- well, whatever.
In Government, the ends never justify the means if the means are unconstitutional. Did this scum have the right to a trial or to confront his accusers. These are his rights if he is still a citizen as declared in the bill of rights? Don't get me wrong, I think the nation is better off with him dead, but she is far worse for tolerating a precedent of peace trumps justice. I would have preferred a public trial even in abstentia, where representation would have been provided - a verdict and then a lawful execution. Even the Nazis were allowed Nurenberg.
