re: #934 Kruk

Are Lieberman and co proposing stripping citizen from people who have been *convicted* of aiding terrorist groups, or those accused of it? The first is justifiable if applied equally to everyone. (It could violate the equal protection clause if it was applied to naturalised citizens but not native born.)

If people who were accused/suspected were stripped of citizenship, and the lack of citizenship then used to evade certain legal protections and allow a conviction, and the conviction used to justify the stripping of citizenship…well, that seems a little Kakfa-esque to say the least.

I’d need to know more about the bill, but I share some concerns. We have a constitutional right to assemble and associate , even Commies and Nazi’s do.
I see a slippery slope ahead if we start stripping citizenship do to claimed “terrorist” associations. You could expand that to some militias for example.
