The goal of left wing lawyers has been to make it illegal to defend ourselves. Looks like they are succeeding.
Boumediene was decided without Roberts or Alito.
So what now? Shoot them all dead on the battlefield or just not fight the fight at all? I think we all know which way this administration wants to go.
That works also. The more that fly, the bigger the message.
You say that like it's a bad thing. Once we require soldiers to follow the Miranda Ruling before firing their weapons, and give Iran our nukes (they want nukes and we don't), those who oppose us in our overseas contingency operations will no longer feel threatened, and they will be nice and sing Kumbaya with us in perfect harmony.
Our nation has amazingly broad protections for free speech, religious liberty and political expression. People have the right to own property, have the means to defend themselves and their families, and be informed by a free press. If the government wants to convict them, they are presumed innocent, entitled to a prompt jury trial with the help of a lawyer, and cannot be tortured or given unreasonable fines.
At least that’s how it used to be.
I suppose the Afghans could just shoot any prisoner the judges wanted transferred to the US for trial ~ and if a judge demanded that the trial actually be held in Afghanistan, then the Afghans might well stick him or her in one of their prisons until rationality returns.
There are so many possibilities here.
McStain and company has severely limited the right to political speech. The congress and courts have severely limited religious speech and expression.
This is not the country it once was. Liberty is in retreat.
Take no prisoners. Either kill them on the battlefield or just let them go. Either way, we must keep them out of the hands of the scumbag lawyers who hate their own country more than our enemies do.
That sounds like the right answer to me.
The Supreme Court of Despots has NO AUTHORITY over The Actions of the Executive Branch or the Legislative Branch. They only have control of the Courts. there are countless examples of the Executive Branch telling the Despots to go pound Watermelons, however Sambo won’t go down that road. He will end up being the Terrorists best friend.
An American robed mullah speaks. Is this psycho judge related to Norman Bates? /sarcasm
I have mixed feelings here.
But, ultimately, as the bill of rights is supposedly a Bill of [human] rights {evidenced of the word “people” rather than “citizen”, though arguable} I don’t see anything wrong with this...
I think that our Government SHOULD be held to task for violating these rights, DOUBLY so when concerning its own citizens.
I can’t really blame the judge here. From what I know, he’s only doing what he’s supposed to do, following SCOTUS precedent in Boumediene v. Bush. Conservative judges don’t make up the law as they go, unlike some folks who see the bench as an opportunity to remake society as they see fit.
This is precisely why NO PRISONERS must be the policy of our military. Hands up or fighting, no matter. Kill them on the spot.
