The fact that they probably will go right back to previous behavior does not override the idea that one is innocent until proven guilty. I believe that their recent exposure to western civilization has not made them sympathetic toward our views but in many cases make them more committed to the idea that we are evil. Even though they are a risk they must be set free unless there is evidence that can stand up in court that they have committed a crime. The risks they pose for society are outweighed by the risk society takes by letting the government lock up people for unknown reasons.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15078815.post-68340741127525691762009-01-27T22:37:00.000-05:002009-01-27T22:37:00.000-05:00I am not exzactly in the far right camp,but I do c...I am not exzactly in the far right camp,but I do consider myself a conservative on a lot of issues.I think putting these people in max or supermax jails to be a good idea.I have read that the ones turned loose have gone back to their old habits.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15078815.post-82359092677139762232009-01-27T19:11:00.000-05:002009-01-27T19:11:00.000-05:00With the mounting job casualties, here's hoping SC...With the mounting job casualties, here's hoping SCOTUS either finds someone, somewhere, has standing to require BHO's birth certificate or fixes attention on a criminal indictment before he wins his War on Prosperity.Tedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04011502155494655727noreply@blogger.com
