This is my answer, but not just gut reaction. It's our process, and we should abide by them. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 31, 09:09 17
- agreed. -- nm - znufrii Dec 31, 09:11 16
  - I would agree if he was a U.S. citizen, but he's not. He's a terrorist. A person who tried to kill over 300 innocent people. He should be scalped -- nm - CQ Dec 31, 09:14 15
    - so if he was a US citizen he should be afforded due process, but since he's not, no dice? bullshit. - mafic Dec 31, 09:23 7
      - actually, if he was a U.S. citizen, he'd be committing treason. So, hung? -- nm - CQ Dec 31, 09:24 6
        
        not treason. Simply a criminal. -- nm - Reagen Dec 31, 09:33
        
        I will always think the death penalty is barbaric, but if that's your law, then dude has to live by it (if you can prove it). -- nm - mafic Dec 31, 09:31
        
        drawn and quartered. -- nm - decline Dec 31, 09:26 3
        
        Thomas Jefferson once shot a man on the White House lawn for committing treason (Swordfish?) -- nm - CQ Dec 31, 09:27 2
        
        if 18th century law reigns, I'd like some slaves please. -- nm - mafic Dec 31, 09:38 1
        
        Preferably sexy ones. (nm) - Happy mu Year! Dec 31, 09:42
    - So it's because he's not one of "us" that it's ok? What if he was a McVeigh-style domestic terrorist? (nm) - musubi Dec 31, 09:15 2
      - I'm just angry about it is all. Venting -- nm - CQ Dec 31, 09:19 1
        
        Fair nuff. I'd *like* to suspend that dudes rights, put him in a sound proof room and let Marcellus Wallace get medeival on his ass. - Happy mu Year! Dec 31, 09:22
    - In which the US would sacrifice what makes us the US. Can't be down with that. -- nm - Jim Dec 31, 09:14 3
      - "Those who would sacrifice liberty for security deserve neither." (nm) - musubi Dec 31, 09:16 2
        
        I was just about to say that -- nm - CQ Dec 31, 09:17 1
        
        So you're arguing Jim's point? (nm) - musubi Dec 31, 09:18
