Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Let's say you're too young to *remember* HUAC, SISS.
New I haven't forgotten all that. Nor have I forgotten...
that in the end US citizens did get their rights. Nor have I forgotten that there really were communists, and they really were out to get us. The Rosenbergs were guilty, after all. All things considered (if you dare consider all things) the facts of that era add up to an argument in favor of military tribunals for noncitizen terrorists right here and now. And the OJ trial, and similar incidents, complete the case, by making the alternative indefensible.

And could you put aside your schizoid grammar for just a moment, to give us a lucid explanation of just what is wrong with military tribunals in general, or in this specific case?

I give you sober reasoning and perspective, you all give me angry gibberish. Especially you, Ashton. Just what have you got against subject + predicate? And would it kill you to syllogize once in a while?
