SEND THEM TO GITMO! (with wedding pics)

Send Them to Guantanamo:
Double Standard on White Christian Domestic Terrorists is a Direct Threat to the U.S.

BUZZFLASH EDITOR'S BLOG

By Mark Karlin

It's a relief of sorts that the Michigan militia members, White Christian Domestic Terrorists, were apprehended before they launched a killing spree of police officers and other Americans. But why should they receive a civil trial, according to right wing arguments; why shouldn't they be flown directly down to Guantanamo?

Of course BuzzFlash does support criminal trials for all charged terrorists and those plotting terorrism, but why the double standard on the part of the right wing when it comes to White Christian Domestic Terrorists?

...............

Anyone planning domestic terrorism or shooting a few people dead after reading books by FOX news inciters or Rush Limbaugh or the like should be sent directly to Guantanamo.

They are as dangerous in terms of terrorism as Al-Qaeda, so why should they get an exception just because they are white and Christian?

They shouldn't.

That's a wedding photo of two of the members of the Christian militia group called Hutaree, posted on Facebook by the bride, who along with her husband and two if his sons were among the nine charged by the feds over the weekend.

2. Do these people realize what a parody they are? (I know the answer is no)
And yes, as my spouse says, these terrorists are more frightening (as in more inclined to rip apart our social fabric) than any outside group.

3. Even better, indefinite detention without representation.
They are enemy combatants and claim to be Christians. The Golden Rule applies.

5. The red head looks like the farmer's wife in the movie "Independence Day"
Edited on Tue Mar-30-10 12:38 PM by notadmblnd
You know, the farmer, whose body was taken over by a giant cockroach? And I'm betting that she's just as stupid as the wife came across in that movie.

9. You're right, it was Men in Black
I was wondering if anyone would pick up on the metaphor.

7. Agreed, no Christian Taliban exceptions
Religious zealots are zealots still. I figure there will be more of this now, and deeper under the rocks.

14. I'm glad to see they're prepared
No telling when you're going to have your opposite marriage wedding disrupted by a bunch of gay activists. Keep your shootin' arns handy, and make sure the kiddies are all packin' in case the Queer Eye guys or Lesbian Avengers burst into your basement compound just as you're sayin' your "I dos" with your forever intended.

15. if they get beaten within an inch of their lives in prison ...
will they refuse life-saving "socialized" health care?

Maybe the doctors in prison will pray that they recover ...
