    My favorite part of all this is assholes like Peter King saying we shouldn't be trying these people in New York because it makes New York a terrorist target. Uh.... ?

    Also. Where were idiots like him when dudes like Ramseh Yousef were on trial here? Oh, I guess he only reads the memos about terrorists who kill more than 2,000 people at a pop.

    One last point. I can't see how executing these guys is a punishment. If I were them, it'd be exactly what I'm hoping for. Let's see - the next 50 years rotting in solitary confinement in a maximum security federal prison, or a quick martyrdom that takes me to my 72 virgins? Hmmm, tough choice there.

    I'm not necessarily against the death penalty because it's barbaric (though it is), I'm mostly against it because it's just not a very tough punishment against people who clearly don't care about human life to begin with, including their own. #headlines

    This should have happened years ago. Our criminal justice system is one of the many things that sets us apart from the world's many authoritarian, anti-democratic regimes. If indeed we were attacked for our freedom, it's manifested in our willingness to have an open and transparent court system, not our $3 toasters.

    I wonder if that headline is referring to all Muslims..........or just the terrorist ones who were responsible for the 9-11 tragedy?

    @Buttafooco: Since it specifically mentions the 9/11 fiends, I think you already know the answer. No need to try and ruffle feathers.
    If you were kidding, or being sarcastic, I apologize, but when it comes to things like this, some people like to stir the pot and I feel like that's what you were trying to do. #headlines

    @Topheel: if you've accidentally come across any of my posts, you'd realize almost all of them take a sarcastic/humorous slant. In this case, it was purely sarcastic, given the blatant racial undertones of many stories that comes via the NY Post.
    Sometimes our feathers become ruffled as a result of the insecure winds blowing through them. #headlines

    I can't believe I'm saying this, but part of me was waiting for the NYPost response. It was always going to be ridiculous, dramatic & insane. Why do I enjoy that?

    For what it's worth, I'm often disappointed by justice system, but I also believe in it. I can't imagine that Holder & the Obama Admin would have ever made this move unless they felt they could win in a legitimate, legally substantiated way. Call me naive, but there are too many well-educated lawyers in this admin - including Obama - to convince me otherwise.

    Regardless, assuming - which I am - they're fucking guilty & not just raving lunatics who actually want credit for (there are not really words) what happened that day, I want to seem them convicted legitimately & face the consequences. Which hopefully will be getting attacked by other inmates in whatever prison they're put in. Or execution.

    But on point on story, in the next years, I can't wait to see if the NY Post goes all "NYers can face anything" or the "Terrorists shouldn't be brought back to the city they attacked." Personally, I feel & hope they go the former. #headlines

    @marin79: I'm confident that they'll win it. The prosecutors are from before the Obama administration, so we know they're competent.

    I am now convinced more than ever AK is fake. I now follow him on Twitter and he didn't mention his near death experience once. No self respecting fameball would allow this opportunity to pass without at least one Tweet.

    I don't mean to be a party pooper, but it's pretty clear that Kade has mental problems, rendering mocking him a tad sketchy.

    On the other hand, I diagnosed John Fitzgerald Page as having JackAsperger's Syndrome, and continued to mock him, so I guess I'm a terrible person.

    Kade is actually kind of funny at this point... like his whole schtick is just performance art... really, really boring performance art.

    EB, on the other hand, is pretty darn lame and I hope she gets a real job someday so that she can relate to someone other than herself or her father.

    My bet is that her book will be titled "the internet: that time hypocriteoath made me cry".
