    I hope the kid wins. But he is trying to bring truth into the court room. Usually courts don't like truth very much.

    I'll support the ACLU as soon as they actually defend the entire BoR, until then they're just a bunch of fucking poseurs.

    So you see nothing wrong with throwing someone in a hole for 3 years, declaring them outside the Geneva convention, and outside civil due process?
    I agree that what's going on in Gitmo is scary, but last I checked the Geneva Convention only protects prisoners of war, and civil due process--guaranteed by the US Constitution--only applies to US Citizens.
