If Padilla is such an "obvious scumbag", charge him, and let the courts do their business. You don't "disappear" him, like some third rate country. To allow a government to lock up it's citizens, *any* citizens, without a trial, is tyranny. |

Maybe they know a hell of a lot more than you? Your opinion is all I asked, not a snipped commentary on my thoughts. Trying to be coy, clever, and evasive? It won't work. Your opinion please!

Ever think they know more than you? What is your opinion on why they remain silent in this matter? Frankly, I don't know if they have remained silent. Regardless, I have my own voice, and more importantly, my own mind. Kennedy, et.al., do not speak for me. A democracy depends on the rule of law. If the government can't be depended upon to follow the rule of law, how can you expect the population to? Do you have a problem with Padilla being given a trial?

Either way, he's trash that deserves no protection. |

Harry,
Your thought process seems to off, this is not an either or situation. It is possible, (and probably recommended) that we don't use a terrorist hell-bent on destroying America or an uniformed dentist to protect our civil liberties. If you want to refute NOYB premise that Padilla is a gangbanger at best, it would have made a much better argument that to say we have to either entrust a terrorist or an uninformed dentist. Life is not black and white, but you do not seem to understand the nuances of the real world. I don't always agree with NYOB, but he consistently out debates you on every issue.

NOYB,
Definitely not too shabby for someone who graduated from a tech school. ; ) I would have expected someone with a Liberal Arts degree from a Ivy League School to out debate you in a second. Now if we could only find someone with a Liberal Arts Degree from an Ivy League school who wants to debate you. ; ) Since we agree more than disagree, I will refrain from your debates. ; ) "NOYB" wrote in message hlink.net...
