  4. Other questions that need to be asked about this guy is what did he do while in the service? Who or what group or groups is he affiliated with now?

    Did they take him away because what he knows or who he knows now.

    1. One has to ask. How far down the road of preventive interventionism do we travel. What you know? Who you know? Is knowing a crime? Is the freedom of asembly a crime? If we are to regain any standing as a nation of laws and a constitutional republic, we must get away from the idea that we have the right to detain or punish something that is not illegal. Some will argue that we must stop bad people before the do harm... to that I repeat an William Blackstone quote "Better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer".... A statement very similar appears in Genesis 18:23-32 as:

      “Abraham drew near, and said, "Will you consume the righteous with the wicked? What if there are fifty righteous within the city? Will you consume and not spare the place for the fifty righteous who are in it?[3] ... What if ten are found there?" He [The Lord] said, "I will not destroy it for the ten's sake."
