Yes yes, but Monte you miss the point.  Remember how you've already been
fingered as being disloyal?  The onus is now on you to prove otherwise!

Oh sure, you say you're a loyal American, but how can we be sure?  Much
better to keep you under guard somewhere, or better yet deport you so we
can move on and focus on other treason suspects.

Y'see, according to your way of thinking I don't have to offer any
evidence that you've done anything wrong.  I just suggest that maybe
your religion doesn't quite mesh well with the rest of ours, or maybe
your skin color resembles all these other traitors we've already deported.

Do you really believe anything that you say???

Do you really advocate prejudging vast numbers of people as guilty???

Why aren't you presumed similarly guilty???  I've already accused you
of being a treasonous conspirator, why haven't we deported you yet???

- Jeff

PS:  Oh this is so much fun!  We can merrily spend all our time devouring
each other as citizens.  The terrorists?  Oh sorry, we're too busy tearing
each other apart to worry about terrorists!
