Funny, that's the argument the Dems use for gun control. But never mind that...
It's not a random label; it's the definition in the law. But I didn't say the citation (which you didn't supply) had to mention "unlawful alien enemy combatant", only that it had to apply to them.
Were you perhaps thinking of Amendment V?
