But no matter what these men's crime shouldnt they be entitled to justice just as any other criminal? Oh thats right. these men aint criminals. They are enemy combatants. The type of people that can be held for 6 years or more without charge, the type that can be tortured and treated like animals.
In that case they should just do what they like to em then. Maybe make a game show of it and get that guy of Millionaire to host it. |
Skell,
For me personally my comments were just a release of upset for what was done. In my lifetime, it is the first time I experienced and witnessed a direct attack. Do I mean any of what I said, I really don't know but it's hard for me to even call those that had anything to do with driving a plane into our buildings as "men".
It is very hard for me, as I would never want to hurt another human with even a word let alone torture them. And no, i don't want them tortured.
But I will admit, the anger that swells up in me for what was done on our soil is more then I can express. And I don't want to give those "men" the wrong impression. Anger probably is not the correct word to describe the feelings. I would say a strong sense to stand up and defend against such irrational behavior. And and even greater pride and love for my country. Forgive me if my comments were less then rationale but you have to admit, driving a plane into a building becasue of hatred is a little less then rationale.
And may God forgive me for the anger that I do have towards those that have hurt us and continue to. And I fully realize that other countries have experienced similiar attacks for years, and my heart goes out to them and I have very similar anger.
Sorry Skell, don't have my head on quite right, I admit.
I had to learn and I did learn which I am most grateful for, to accept and reach an understanding, at negative comments said about my country, my Goverment and in some cases my fellow Americans. And I actually am now able to have some understanding and acceptance when I see the numerous post against my Government and such by non-Americans. So, I guess I would like some understanding as well.
Skell, if this were to happen in your country, I would say Skell, have had it hun. Speak your peace and be heard!!!! I'd be upset right with you.
America is a civilized country. You know darn right well they are not going to be tortured. We had some hiccups in the past, no one is perfect. This is a great country with highly intellegent people and if these "men" were held 6 years, so be it. They probably just wanted to make sure the evidence was solid and if we didn't keep them until trial, we would have a hard time finding them again.
It is my beleif, that if these are the "men" who drove planes into our buildings, evil has penetrated them so deeply, they hardly remsemble men and barely human.
But don't feel too bad for them Skell, I think there may be 77 females, who don't know what they are doing, waiting for them. Brilliant I say, just brilliant.
(in my heart Skell, I wish no one any harm, humor is a tool to release, let me and whomever voice whatever is in our hearts at this disgusting tradedgy
that took place.)
