YOU'RE RIGHT! This is serious! And do you know that a President of the United States, Franklin Delano Roosevelt, imprisoned without trial or access to lawyers Japanese-American citizens? For FOUR YEARS? MY GOD! THE REPUBLIC HAS FALLEN! The United States became a dictatorship in 1941! Oh. Wait a minute. FDR was a Democrat. Forget that. All is well. Have you ever stopped to consider just how stupid this crap you post sounds to anyone who happens to know anything? Did you know that Abraham Lincoln suspended habeas corpus during the Civil War, which allowed him to do the same thing? So, really, the US became a dictatorship in 1861, right? Or do you know the dates of any of these events? Now Lincoln actually was within his Constitutional rights: Article I. Section. 9. Clause 2: The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it. but the United States Supreme Court ruled that his action was illegal and unconstitutional. He ignored the Court. Not only that, but for a while he considered having the Chief Justice arrested. So what was your target again?
