No. You know what I have a problem with??? Anti-Americans who pretend to be exercising their rights. McCarthy was right. He tried to root out anti-American forces within our government. Along the way, he was met with great opposition from the DEMOCRATS in charge at the time. The American public was with him overwhelmingly. Had 9/11 never happened, I assume you would have been on the "alleged terrorists" side, since, they were merely planning to blow up thousands, yet hadn't done anything about it.

And I have a problem with holding person A responsible for the actions of person B. You apparently do not.

No, but I do have a problem with person A protecting person B by not naming or identifying him.

I have a problem with American citizens being arrested and harassed for crimes they didn't commit. You apparently don't.

I believe that one of the terrorists we have arrested was planning to blow up major cities, and is an American citizen. He didn't do anything...should we set him free? He only wants to kill us....I guess until he succeeds, we should allow him to try. And, I'm pretty sure that John Lindh is an American citizen, he was just hanging out in Afghanistan on the battlefield....but I'm sure he didn't do anything either. Being an American citizen should not mean you can do whatever the hell you want.

You're nuts. Comparing protestors to murderers?

If he has committed no crime, then YES! Ever hear of habeas corpus
