When security at airports is bordering on paranoia, should't the Mexican border be equally policed?

This word is used quite a lot, and I think there's substantial debate about its meaning.

For instance, what's the difference between a terrorist and a criminal? A terrorist and an "enemy combatant"? An insurgent? A spy? A sabateur? A soldier?

Is there some clear defining quality that makes a person a terrorist?

against the detainees at guantanimo?

It seems that the US government wants to make certain that these people are found guilty whether they are or not and is making a system that is impossible to find otherwise

Do you feel that they go over board in their mission or that they are just doing their job for the country?
I feel that recruiters have received a bad rap because they are attacked all because they are doing what they have been told to do by their superiors.
Plus, recruiters don't force people to sign on the dotted line or say the oath. People sign up on their own free will and people from the outside see that as the recruiter is out to prey on them, or something to that sort? I think it's wrong and would like your opinion on the matter?

I think it's plain as day and night (no pun intended). May we begin listing some reasons? I'll start:

1. Pandering to radical elements in the black community for votes no matter if it's the worst thing for America;

2. Duke University liberal college professors who wag their chins all day talking about the "presumption of innocence" and constitutional rights of the accused, but the minute the accused is white, upper-middle class, and the victim is a black prostitute and stripper, those principles are meaningless.

me and my friends pick up illegals at various locations and drive them out to the desert on the promice that we will pay them 9.00 an hour to dig trenches for walls . we drive them about 30 to 40 miles out in the desert and give them shovels and take them to a spot that we set up that looks like a work site .when we drop them off we tell them that we will be back in an hour with water and food . the funny part is we never come back for them and just leave them out there . is this a funny thing to do or is this something all americans should do to them ..

Hezbollah has never attacked the United States, nor threatened to attack the United States. And hasn't this country gotten into enough starting trouble with "enemies" who don't mean us any harm?

Just to put us into a position where we will have to spend 350 billion more over the next few years. And why? To kill a cruel dictator? Well therer are plenty more where he came from. How much more iwould we have been better off if we had opted for the scholarships.

I happened to notice that there seemed to be a lot of questions removed, mostly in just the last day or two, and most of them seemed pretty reasonable! So I went through all the questions I had already answered, and I found 33 questions removed. I had a sincere, honest quetion of my own, removed yesterday, and this really scares me! Do we still have our right to free speech, or are we slowly losing that...along with many other rights????? Please help me to understand!!

With the new passport rules taking effect, I'm curious as to what will happen to a person if they try to reenter without a passport.
I don't think they can turn you back to the country you came from, because wouldn't that country also require a passport to take you back in? Do you just end up in limbo like the guy in The Terminal?
