There isn't any need to bring them into America.

Unless you're Pres. B.O. trying to keep a campaign pledge...

Gitmo is very expensive. put them in dah UP. maximum security, jobs for americans, money for michigan. that, my friends, is a win-win-win situation with no downside.

Once they are extended rights as US citizens, it doesn't much matter where you put them. I think it would be ideal if they could be housed in Washingtion DC, next to the White House, or in Chicago in Rev Wright/Bill Ayers/Rezcko/Obama's old neighbourhood. If it needs to be MI, then the Governor's Mansion is the ideal spot.

congrats on your most moronic post of the month, Bats

Solid work again Rb....make sure you continue your tradition of making dismissive remarks without backing them up.

Those prisons in the UP are no more than over-glorified summer camps.

When your Al Qaeda "guests" walk off and wreak havok in the Mainland US then what'll you do?

LOL!!!!!

Delusions of grandmanure.

We can house Charles Manson, and a million more violent criminals, but not a couple of cab drivers and pastry chefs trained to build an IED?

They'd be more afraid of your moth farm, and MuMu's Jesus talk.

Got any spare dungeons?

Boot the chick with the roomy hips and give 'em the hole with the wicker lotion basket.

That would scare the hell out of them.

Like I said. Shoot 'em all. Problem solved.

are you truly that delusional? they ain't walking away from Standish [[no escapes since it opened). Maximum Security -- and they mean it. Don't think if the Gitmo boys are sent there that they won't up at least a section to Super Max status.

**Bong-Man** · August-27-09, 07:38 AM

Lol....Good to see some Macomb County paranoia rearing it's ugly head. Those black people from Mt. Clemens will be floating down the Clinton River and the spillway for an attack any night now. Load the guns !

Um, Standish isn't in the UP.

And based on Lorax's comments, [[s)he has never been to the UP or drove by their prisons.

you are right, standish isn't in the UP. my bad. Standish is still remote, fairly isolated and VERY secure

Check again.

Standish is about five miles from I-75 and practically right next to US-23. So it's not exactly "isolated".

As for being secure. I'll grant you that it's better than what they have in the UP, but nowhere near as secure as Gitmo.

But what about the surrounding town?

If they are transferred to Standish, when the pissed off islamists show up for their comrades, that town would make a great place to pick up hostages.

Just something to think about...

**Bobl** · August-27-09, 10:07 AM

Just give them a damned trial. Place the guilty in secure prisons. Move the rest to where they came from, or where we kidnapped them. Get it done.

**elganned** · August-27-09, 11:08 AM

Charge 'em or release 'em or shoot 'em in the head.
I'm sick of hearing about them.

Absolutely no debate there.

And all of that can be done down in Gitmo where they cannot harm American civilians.

no, just a line of extreme stupidity not even worth thinking about.

what is the population of standish? [[around 1500) how far from the city is it?

fyi, Arenac county has less than 17,000 people in it. one of the least populated counties in the lp. That IS isolated. also, the town does not surround the prison

Unless your name was Chris Carter, eight years ago, most people didn't even give a second thought to some islamofacist taking over an airliner and crashing it into a building.

So bury your head in the sand and keep thinking happy thoughts.

**Bong-Man** · August-27-09, 12:28 PM

I'm seriously concerned the Islamists might try that during deer hunting season. I can see them now......wearing their Elmer Fudd hats and flannel shirts for cover. God forbid...they might target the new casino.

**elganned** · August-27-09, 12:58 PM

If the Islamists wanted to cause serious trouble they'd only have to drop off five people with Bic lighters up and down the California coast in the dry season.

Concern yourself with something that might prove a real threat, not the bogey-men under the bed.

Whose to say that they haven't done that already?

But I'd rather not give their buddies a target to hit where they can increase their numbers.

Keeping them down in Gitmo keeps us safe here.

Actually lots of people thought about that possibility. the difference? the guys who did it weren't in a maximum security prison

my head isn't in the sand, i'm just not a chickens___, especially over something as irrational and paranoid as what you posted

**MCP-001** · August-27-09, 01:39 PM

**firstandten** · August-27-09, 01:53 PM

Don't worry about those folks in Standish. I bet a significant portion of that population can recite the 2nd amendment chapter and verse. If anybody would be in trouble it would be "those Islamist" troublemakers.

I'm pretty certain that they can.

But why put them in harm's way?
