What took me so long?
I was enjoying reading some of the posts as they becaame, I think, sillier and sillier.

I might feel the same way if I was incarcerated for a few years without being charged, without a trial, without a lawyer to protect my rights, and without being able to communicate with those in the outside world.
So anyway, Mig, if someone is guilty in your opinion they're not entitled to a trial?
You're perfectly entitled to think they're guilty.
AAMOF, despite my dwindling confidence in our government's desire and ability to tell us the truth, I
still have enough confidence to believe that most, if not almost all, of these detainees are guilty.
But that doesn't change the fact that I think they should all have their day in court and be
proven guilty.
Especially if one of our goals is to set an example for the rest of the world that a democracy, in which everyone's rights are protected, is the best form of government that there is.
