Not a kangaroo court.

Close Guantanomo. And give every suspected terrorist the same treatment and rights we'd give to an American citizen. In other words, a fair trial. And representation by counsel. And the assumption that the terrorist is presumed innocent until convicted in proper legal proceedings. Of course, President George Bush says these terrorists are so bad that they should just be locked up, and the key thrown away. I'd still treat them in a reasonably humane way. Let them see how the American judicial system works, when it's run properly. We've deviated from the long-standing fundamentals of American justice. Even using torture. To our shame. Many of the 250 or so prisoners in Guantanomo have languished in their cells for 5 years and more. Without a trial. Some may very well be innocent. We won't know until they've been given a proper trial. In a legitimate court. Not a kangaroo court. --Jim Broede
