Yeah, I don't think it could happen to John Walker Lindh. He's sitting in a heavily fortified cell right now. Despite the fact that the government very clearly thinks that he is guilty (after all, they wouldn't prosecute him if they didn't), they've been very careful about preserving his rights and not allowing a bunch of rednecks to git that there boy an' string 'im up.

juju - I believe the proper adjective is "murderous". Let's take a look at what WordNet has to say about it.

Quote:
<b>patriotic</b>

adj : inspired by love for your country; capable or conducive to beating the living fuck out of an accused enemy collaborator and hanging them upside down for public viewing
No, that's not right. I made that last bit up myself, with a little help from the definition of <i>murderous</i>. There was nothing about that in the definition of <i>patriotic</i> - sorta the same state of affairs since we last clashed over what it meant. Can you drop the stupid US-bashing rhetoric for just one of your posts and say something like "Man, that is really fucked up"?
