    I'm having a hard time with the new law that allows the government to detain American citizens, SUSPECTED of terroists acts, indefinately without a trial. Does the IV and VI Amendment mean anything? I have my own beliefs about someone who leaves and fights for the other side on the battlefield or actual terrorists. But to hold American citizens SUSPECTED of terrorism without a trial just opens doors to other things. That means that the talking heads in the government get to decide what is considered a suspected terrorist.
