When I went to school and learned about the Constitution,
no one was locked up without being allowed to articulate
a defense.
If America has become the epitome of everything it was
founded on to oppose, then what exactly are we defending?
The government holds dear the ideology and practice of imperialism. It feels it is right to oppose the
"aggressive" activities of others, often before the others acted against America and when the "aggressors" came into power largely due to US influence (an amazingly regular pattern).

So that the government would deny basic principles of justice (evidence, right to defense, a relatively quick trial) is no surprise.

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you (unless it costs
something).
