Obama proposes Indefinite Preventive Detention without trial - Behind Blue Eyes - Open Salon
Obama is proposing we keep people locked up not for the crimes they have committed and we prove they committed in a court of law, but on the chance that they might commit crimes in the future. There will be no trial, for no crime exists to be charged. There is only the nebulous threat of "future acts" to justify depriving people of their liberty potentially indefinitely.
So far, Obama have proved that he is mostly made of shit on many topics. Bankers salary caps, Gitmo, spying, Iraq... Sigh....
