Guantanamo

 The U.S. is still holding 39 prisoners in the prison at Guantanamo.  Over half have been held for more than a decade with no charges being filed against them.  Sone have been tortured.  Some may be completely innocent, rounded up and turned over for monetary rewards.

For a country that prides itself on its judicial system and rule of law, this is unacceptable.  If these men are thought to have committed crimes, then charge them and try them.  This is our own gulag.  If we are ending “forever wars,” it’s time we ended “forever imprisonment.”
