END Indefinite Detention in the National Defense Authorization Act. It goes against everthing we stand for as a Country.

Created by M.S. on December 21, 2012

When you're accused of a crime in our country you get a trial, you get a trial by a jury of your peers. This bill takes away that right and says that if someone thinks you're dangerous, we will hold you without a trial. They had protection in this bill. They passed an amendment that specifically said if you were an American citizen or here legally in the country, you would get a trial by jury, It's been removed because they want the ability to hold American citizens without trial in our country. This is so fundamentally wrong and goes against everything we stand for as a country.
