Sure, who needs human rights when there are terrorists, sorry, alleged terrorists to illegally detain and deny rights to?
From iWon's Survey today.
Britain's highest court yesterday ruled that foreign terror suspects cannot be detained indefinitely without trial. Lawyers for a group of foreign men now held without charge in the UK claim their clients' detention is a violation of human rights. According to AP, "The British government had argued that the detention without charge of some terrorist suspects is a tough but necessary measure to protect a free society from the threat of devastating attacks." (Related AP article)
Do you agree or disagree with the British court's ruling?
36% - Agree - detaining terror suspects indefinitely without charge is a violation of human rights
45% - Disagree - detaining terror suspects indefinitely without charge is necessary to protect a free society
17% - I'm not sure
2% - I don't care
Let's be clear, a majority of people favor illegally detaining suspected terrorists, denying them their human rights and that's okay with most people responding to the survey.
Sorry but if you're willing to give away even more of your supposedly inalienable rights then you're a fucking fool.
