THIS situation deals with a standard policy in place for many years about what happens when you are already in jail. The NDAA completely overwhelms the constitution and truly makes us a police state.
You idiots that think that "conservatives" want a police state, or "liberals" want a polce state are fooling yourselves badly.
They ALL want a police state.... They ALL want to give themselves (the government), more and more control... They ALL want to grow government and give the political elites control of the money and the power.
This little ruling is a total red herring. PAY ATTENTION TO THINGS LIKE THE NDAA!!

Accompanying the President’s signature was a signing statement which was intended to clarify some of his perspectives on the NDAA’s most controversial language. The statement read in part, “my administration will not authorize the indefinite military detention without trial of American Citizens.” However, what is important to keep in mind here is that the statement refers only to what this administration pledges, not to the intentions or requirements of future administrations.
Are the GOP presidential candidates promising to strike this new controversial passage, should they wind up winning anytime in the future?
