Who's up for a firing squad?

A National Guardsman was arrested Thursday and charged by the Army with trying to provide information to the al-Qaida terrorist network, a federal law enforcement official said.

This folks, is treason.

If we don't throw his ass against a wall, we can just dump him alone and unarmed on the Afghan-Pakistan border, and let the local tribes kill him in an interesting fashion.

First a fair trial, then the execution

Not to interrupt this lovely lynching, but...

Seems like some wounds are still fresh. I'm reminded of the (funny because it's accurate) Onion 9/11 Point-Counterpoint column, "'We Must Retaliate With Blind Rage' vs. 'We Must Retaliate With Measured, Focused Rage'" (http://www.theonion.com/onion3734/point_americas_response.html).

Keep in mind that Doug's comment *does* include the unspoken "if he's guilty".
