No, you were talking about Ann Coulter's bullchit in Canada. Canada is not the US and it has nothing to do with our laws. You can't start a thread on Ann Coulter in Canada and then make it about Obama and US law. There is no logical connection. _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1.

I am certainly NOT an Ann Coulter fan, but you think people being held as prisoners on foreign soil deserve protection under our laws, why not our citizens in Canada?
Just throwing this out there for some discussion. _________________

BB is the only person on here dumber than you. His comment means nothing. The discussion was on Ann Coulter and Canada. BB's inane rants do not change what the discussion was about. _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1. Don't lose contact! Join the forums at bogsource.com now! |

Because the people being held on foreign soil are being held by us. Therefore, it is our choice whether or not we afford them the rights we claim in our own legal documents to be inalienable and the rights of all human beings. If we really expect the rest of the world to take us seriously when we claim to be the bastion of freedom, then the choice is obvious.
In Coulter's situation, she has left our country of her own free will and that creates an implicit contract of understanding between her and the country she has traveled to which states that she will abide by their laws. At this point it is now Canada's choice whether or not to afford her special privileges that may be different from every other person in their borders. She probably expects special treatment because she's an arrogant clown. But that's not up to her and its certainly not up to the American government, especially in situations where we have an amicable relationship with the country in question. To attempt to enforce our laws in Canadian land because we think ours are better would be the pinnacle of arrogance, especially when we do not afford those same rights to those in our charge as I explained above.
The sign of a morally dignified nation is one that treats all those under its jurisdiction with the same rights even when it doesn't have to and at the same time is never so forward as to assume other countries will treat their citizens with different rights just because of who they are. _________________ The end is nigh!

If I ask you, I'm sure to get the wrong answer every time. _________________ The end is nigh! OR forums die APRIL 1. Don't lose contact! Join the forums at bogsource.com now! |

No arguement on Coulter-you are right on that as far as I am concerned. But I somehow knew we would disagree on Gitmo. They are NOT citizens and NOT inside the US or a US territory, therefore our Constituion does not apply to them. In my opinion. _________________

All the more reason to afford them basic human rights. When you have no legal obligation to do so, no real consequence for not doing so, and support from people in your country for not doing so, yet you still choose to afford the same basic human rights to your enemies as you do to yourself, that is when you truly do the right thing. _________________ The end is nigh!

Cy-I believe their "basic" human rights were being afforded to them. Protection from the ACLU is not a basic human right. _________________
