    Is this guy complaining that hard evidence is necessary to put people in jail? The number of innocent people in jail (and indefinite detention) is surely high enough to warrant this judicial barrier. Would he like our already abused civil rights to be further trampled on? What Constitutional protections remain? Are there really so many casualties from terrorist attacks that we need to risk a police state mentality? Do YOU know anyone hurt by terrorists? Do you even know anyone who knows ANYONE?

    Wait till you realize 9/11 was controlled demolition

    Translation-

    We know you Conspiracy theorist are expecting us to throw the “Terrorists” in Camps with no Lawyer or Rights, so we wised up.

    First we will Hype the media, into convincing you we actually care if he’s innocent, even though, we had Prior knowledge of him and Might have funded most of them.

    Then we”ll wait for you to become Complacent and stage some sort of Attack to convince you that more of your rights need to be taken for you to be SAFE.

    DUMMIES
