Did any one of You bother to actually check sections 1031 and 1032, or did You all just assume. Oh! It says so on teh internets! Must be true, then!...?
Under 1031:
"(d) CONSTITUTIONAL LIMITATION ON APPLICABILITY TO UNITED STATES PERSONS.
?The authority to detain a person under this section does not extend to the
detention of citizens or lawful resident aliens of the United
States on the basis of conduct taking place within the
United States except to the extent permitted by the Constitution of the United States."
Under 1032:
"(b) REQUIREMENT INAPPLICABLE TO UNITED STATES CITIZENS.
?The requirement to detain a person in military custody
under this section does not extend to
citizens of the United States."

THIS!! Enough with the fucking scaremongering already!!
Quoted for truth. Hopefully a few people will read this and-
Oh, who am I kidding? This is the Escapist. They always do the exact same thing when this happens:
DOUCHE 1: Look at this news article from a questionable source! Something really horrible has happened/is happening now!
DOUCHE 2: I don't want to live on this planet anymore.
DOUCHE 3: Lost faith in humanity!
DOUCHE 4: America, lol.
REASONABLE HUMAN BEING: Good news, everyone! Look at this new piece of info that proves the first guy was talking out of his ass, and this news isn't actually nearly as bad as it seems! Good news, right?
DOUCHE 4: "I don't want to live on this planet anymore." Good point, DOUCHE 2! Neither do I! Humanity/Possibly just America sucks!
DOUCHE 5: Censorship, death of freedom, 1984, Guy Fawkes, etc etc!!
DOUCHE 6: "Censorship, death of freedom, 1984, Guy Fawkes etc etc!!" That was a moving speech. DOUCHE 5 is a master wordsmith!
REASONABLE 2: Hey, look at what REASONABLE 1 said! This seems REALLY RELEVANT.
DOUCHE 7: Lost faith in humanity!
DOUCHE 8: The world now sucks! I hate humanity! Except for myself, of course.
REASONABLE 3: Seriously, look at REASONABLE 1's post! This is actually not that bad at all!
DOUCHE 9: America, lol!
DOUCHE 10: I don't want to liv-Ah, ninja'd!
REASONABLE 1, 2, and 3: *facepalm*
NOTE: Obviously joking, mods. This is the Escapist! Each and every one of our members is a genius who deserves to have their thoughts made public. Not insulting anyone specific with this post. No need for offensive action.
