The WH wants to move the GITMO detainees to Kansas or Michigan. No one there want's them. So what's Obama's plan now?

He's going to chain them to your bedposts. Are you scared yet?

Seriously. These protesters have issues. One doesn't obtain superpowers by becoming a terrorist. They can't bend steel with their bare hands. They can't catch bullets in their teeth. What on earth are these idiots afraid of?

I agree. Google the security at the supermax prisions......those dudes are going no where. Plus in Kansas, if they did somehow escape, you'd know it cause they would be the only middle easterners for 4 states in all directions.
