Keep Terrorists OUT of Civilian Courts

President Obama’s Administration has decided to bring the worst of the worst — the terrorists responsible for the tragedy of 9/11 — to American soil to stand trial. What’s worse, they are planning to take them out of the military justice system and try these terrorists in CIVILIAN courts — a dangerous move that will put our war on terrorism in jeopardy.

In The Courts
  FCC v. Fox Television Stations, Inc. (2007)
 
The Supreme Court is considering a case to determine whether the Federal Communications Commission acted appropriately after the regulatory agency declared as indecent the broadcast of expletives from a nationally-televised awards show.  The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit ruled against the FCC saying its decision was wrong and it overstepped its authority.  The FCC has asked the high court to overturn the lower court decision.  The ACLJ represents itself and 18 members of Congress with its amicus brief filed at the high court.  The brief supports the FCC position and contends that the indecency policy affords children greater protection from the harm associated by exposure to indecent material without infringing on the constitutional rights of adults.  The case is FCC v. Fox (No. 07-582) and the high court will consider the case when its next term begins in the fall of 2008.
