Wake up America! He is an enemy combatant, there is no doubt. Jeeze......

He is a United States Citizen on United States Soil. If it turns out he is an "enemy combatant" working on behalf of a foreign government or a foreign terroist network, then on top of the murder charges, they can try him for treason.

He is entitled, by virtue of his American Citizenship, to the same due process as any other citizen. That includes the right to a speedy trial by a jury.

If the government can take that away from him, it can take it away from you.

I became a US citizen in 1964. Part of the ceremony was an oath and the pledge of allegiance. He violated his oath so his citizenship should be revoked immediately.

If an American citizen were on the battlefield in Afghanistan fighting against US forces and were captured, would he be an enemy combatant or would he be an entitled US citizen?

I understand the state can charge him as well, and likely will at some point . Is that correct?

Can't strip a natural born citizen of his US citizenship.
