Jim Huffman on Homeland Security

 


No taxpayer-funded lawyers for captured terrorists

Taking the war on terror seriously means we cannot afford to prosecute captured terrorists--whether they were caught on foreign soil or in the US--in the criminal justice system. By providing terrorists with taxpayer funded lawyers (who invariably counsel them to remain silent) we deny ourselves the opportunity to get intelligence about terror organizations and we put American lives at risk.
