TO BE CLEAR:
IF YOU WERE BORN IN THE UNITED STATES, OR ARE A CITIZEN OF THE UNITED STATES, THIS BILL DOES NOT AND CANNOT AFFECT YOU.....PERIOD.
Why that was not clarified in the original poster's comments.....gee, I wonder why. Might have something to do with that election coming up, but hey, probably not. Troll isn't a Democrat, you see, so even if he made this thread to specifically trash Republicans (and only a minimal amount Democrats), he must be doing it for the general benefit of the forum.....not to scare you all.
Now...I feel like I've already done this before..............maybe because I already did.
From an ACTUAL NEWS ARTICLE, and not some stupid fuck TV transcript:
Once again.......Thomas...Loc...Gov. http://thomas.loc.gov
From the bill ITSELF:
(emphasis mine)
U.S. Citizens ARE NOT subject to military tribunals under this law. Period. Habeas corpus is something that has ALWAYS been reserved for United States Citizens...Period. This whole topic makes no sense.

Good try mayne...NO Where in that text does it say. "U.S citizens are NOT affected by this Law" They give you a few specifics of who are and a VAGUE generalization of an "Enemy combatant". Which will be determined as they see fit. If you agree with Al Qaeda or even try to spread their points of view. That alone by their definition ...makes you an "Enemy Combatant"
Like this dude for example!
He is an "American Citizen"
According to this part
`Sec. 948a. Definitions
`In this chapter:
`(1) UNLAWFUL ENEMY COMBATANT- (A) The term `unlawful enemy combatant' means--
`(i) a person who has engaged in hostilities or who has purposefully and materially supported hostilities against the United States or its co-belligerents who is not a lawful enemy combatant (including a person who is part of the Taliban, al Qaeda, or associated forces);
