playing nice with Air Force One

They may not be able to shoot people off the tops of buildings (yet). But
I bet the SS could certainly arrest them, and detain them indefinitely as
terrorist suspects.
Detention is not conviction. On what legal basis would they arrest them?
Being on a roof does not make one a terrorist.
The "perpetrators" sat in positions that might be
used by sniper terrorists to execute an attack on the President, and were
therefore an obvious threat to National Security.
How much of a threat are they with no weapons?
It was the private security force of another historic leader that started a
similar trend in the 30's and 40's. They even used the same initials. But
their camps weren't in Cuba, and I don't think we're using our detainees as
slaves. It seems like we get closer and closer every day.
If nobody objects, the evolution in that direction is natural.
Terror is a powerful force. More powerful than airplanes.
Goering agreed.
