Now we will argue is the bomber a enemy combatant.....

Do the powers that be have any type of protocol for this type of crime?

Why is it these college educated asses in Washington can't figure out if this is a enemy combatant or not?

This shit should have been figured out years ago.

    Odd times.

    There is a lot to process. By the book of rules, he should have all rights.

    But I think it is critical to chase the trail right now. This isn't a drifter that was setting bums on fire. If there is a larger force that was directing / brain washing them, we need to find out as quickly as possible.

    I honestly don't know what the answer should be. On one hand, he is a citizen and should be treated like one. On the other, it is quite possible he became a citizen with a crime like this in mind. Should he be allowed to use the rights granted in the Constitution as protection? I don't know what the right answer is.

    He has full rights.

    However, I think whichever way they proceed with this some people will find a way to complain about it. :roll:

    Only thing I know for sure is that this statement is 100% correct.

    he has rights as a American citizen. thousands of American citizens have been jammed the fuck up by their very own dumb-asshole actions. this guy is up a fucking creek. the actual fact is he will suffer mentally & physically the rest of his natural days behind bars & concrete walls. if he is lucky he will have a window which is probably not ever going to happen.

    currently he is handcuffed to his hospital bed. he himself wants to die right this moment. to save the state & government a shit ton of money he may consider somehow jumping out a 6 story window at the hospital or jabbing a needle into & ripping across his juggler vein

    As much as I'd like to say the Constitution should protect his rights when Obama signed NDAA into law it will be what is followed.

    Were McVeigh and his accomplices considered 'ennemi combatants'? They caused so much more death and destruction.

    John McCain and Lindsay Graham are for treating him as an enemy combatant, and they are exactly why the Republican Party has lost its' way.

    it's hard to say if they were enemy combatants or just just a couple of wannabe's but in any case I'll refere back to Pureoc's post to tortuer and extract all info possible then we'll find out if they are enemy combants or not.

    Wether he acted alone or had some backing, he was a fuck face asshole who deserves to be hung by his balls. Call him whatever you want, either way he deserves all the shit he's gonna get, once he's gone through our system.

    Ya because torturing works right? Look at all the useful information we got. PATHETIC, you can sit here and pretend to be righteous and all but all you are is a blood hungry individual. I won't even call you human because to want to torture someone is barbaric and you're pretty clear on what you'd like done. DISGUSTING. Fuck bro, torture? Really??? I'm sooooo not shocked you feel this way. :roll:

    We've learned NOTHING in the last 12 years..... :fp:

    Being hung by the balls is no more cruel than torture?

    Anyway, he should be treated/tried as the American he is.

    Ironic, though.

    Are you fucken kidding me? Hang him by his balls AFTER he's gone through our system. But to torture him for information? That shit doesn't work and you know it. To torture just for the sake of torturing is bullshit. But I'm all for hangen him by his balls ONCE he's gone through our system.
    Ironic, yes I know :roll:

    My point was about inflicting pain, whether to garner information or provide punishment.

    I'm for capital punishment, just found the exchange of posts interesting and a little contradictory.
