Give us your tired, your poor - we'll tranq 'em

This sort of abuse is never far away when guards grow comfortable with more coercion. Do I have to keep repeating plaintively that this is exactly why we have to have due process if we want to have liberty? We can't stay free by leaving it to the discretion of someone in the heat of a moment. I barely recognize my country any more.

But the wingnut fear-mongers want less oversight.
