Apples and oranges, my good man, and I hope you're smart enough to know it. An enemy combatant on a foreign field of battle is different from a criminal suspect captured here in the US. It appears as though you're more than willing to eviscerate civil liberties in the US, even though it doesn't appear remotely necessary in this particular case.

Oh I'm all for giving him due process first. When it's proven he's working with the enemy, then get the water.

Who's the enemy?

BTW, torture and due process are mutually exclusive concepts.

Sigh...one of the most vocal proponents of the 2nd amendment around here is all for tossing the rest of the document is the shitter. Good goin' Was. I used to think most everyone around here had some redeeming value or at least deserving of some respect. I guess I was wrong.

From what I heard on the BBC American today the older of the two blamed the US for his wicked ways. Seems it was American's fault he smoked, drank and chased women. So that might be the battlefield he envisioned in his sick little mind.

He hated the fact women in this country were treated as equales, the whole modern woman thing. Seems their Mother and Father are a real pieces of work. Mother and the Father are arriving on Wednesday and I hope they get a thorough vetting!

Islamic extremists are the enemy, and all indications so far are that these two were exactly that.
The battlefield now includes Boston, MA.
I don't see a distinction between a formally trained fighter and a self-radicalized.
I also don't give a shit if big bro recruited him and he wasn't really a bad kid blah blah
