Are you a simpleton? You do not carry your rights under the US Constitution with you when you travel abroad.

And you certainly do not retain them on a battlefield against US soldiers.

Would you also allow him his first amendment and second amendment rights too, you twit? That way he could tell others where you are or he could kill you himself.

Here, here. If this were the case then all of the US citizens being held in jails all over the world would be subject to treatment under the US code and not of the country they are being held by. At the time this photo was taken the US had not determined what charges and in what court Walker would be held accountable for his actions.

How come the government has the jurisdiction to tax your income when you reside abroad? The operative principle seems to be that you carry all the obligations with you, wherever you may go, but your rights aren't along for the ride.

It goes without saying that I side with those that have nothing but contempt for Taliban Johnny, but at the same time I'm also with those who would prefer to see a Congress that got off its fat be-hind and gave us a constitutional war. Then you could have all the necktie parties that your heart desires, as far as I'm concerned.
