Brilliant idea, banning due process. Why not just toss out the Constitution?
After all, there are lots of things in it that aren't useful in a modern
society. (banning slavery, freedom of the press, trial by jury; you name it and
it's in there.) Just think of all the people we could keep in jail if it
didn't exist!
