You're fucking wrong, DOA. The military detention bill allows for anyone within a declared war zone to be detained indefinitely, citizen or not (caveat: that is, if a war zone is declared domestically. Non-citizens everywhere though are shafted).

Fuck you Mr. Obama.
If an asteroid were to land on you tomorrow, I would rejoice.
Because I have no more patience for supposed "allies" who really turn out to stab you in the back.
And you, shit sir, have stabbed me and your core constituents in the back.

Slave to the Patriarchy no more
