Nice ad hominem attack.

This is a different thread and what is being discussed here are not Muslims, but traitors of whatever faith who provide aid and comfort to an enemy who is killing American soldiers. Read Aticle III, Section III.of the document you are so found of referring to. It defines treason, and the above individuals fit the description therein.

And I suggest you read the 1st Amendment - it allows people to criticize the government. Even in time of war.

"Nice ad hominem attack."

Not really. Just a good analysis of your tactics.

"And I suggest you read the 1st Amendment - it allows people to criticize the government. Even in time of war. "

"Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting an estblishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercize thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances"

I don't see anything there refering to a state of war.


"Article III

Section III

TREASON - WHAT AND HOW PUNISHED

1. Treason against the United States shall consist only in levying war against them, or in adhereing to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort. No person shall be convicted of treason unless on the testimony of two witnesses to the same overt act, or in confession in open court.

2. The Congress shall have the power to declare the punishemnt of treason, but no attainder of treason shall work corruption of the blood, or forfeiture except during the life of the person attained."


People who demonstrate against a war effort once American troops are committed in combat are de facto providing aid and comfort to the enemy and are therefore traitors. They should be hanged.

In World War 1 and World War 2 no one would have disputed this. Nor would it have been disputed during the Civil War.


No government can survive by not taking appropriate steps to assure subversive elements do not undermine its efforts to defend its interests.
