Duncan Hunter on GITMO

Keep Prison Open
Fox6

Congressman Duncan Hunter (R-52nd District) says Khalid Sheikh Mohammad could be coming to a military base near you. “Those places include the Brig at Miramar, places that have been disseminated by the democratic leadership. They include places like the Brig at Pendleton.” he said Friday.
Hunter points to a list he says was created by Congressional Democrats in Washington.
It lists our two local brigs as potential sites to house some of the nearly 400 detainees. Hunter does not want to see that happen.
But others, like Richard Quinonez, disagree. He lives near Miramar but is not concerned.
“They’ve gotten away with a lot of stuff at Guantanamo Bay that the public has been shocked to hear about, so maybe instead of keeping that type of thing at a distance,” Quinonez suggested, bringing them here could be an improvement.
Critics think the prison violates the principals of democracy and hurts our country’s world image.
“It is basically inflaming Muslims and others around the world against us. It makes our soldiers less safe,” said Michael Ratner, President of the Centre for Constitutional Rights.
But Hunter stands by his pledge to try to keep those prisoners at Guantanamo Bay.
“We should keep them isolated from the criminal population in this country,” he said.
