Beaufort Observer: Rep. Glen Bradley to introduce resolution in N. C. Legislature against "Indefinite Detention"

by Jeff Lewis, National Director Patriot Coalition and FIRE


North Carolina Rep. Glen Bradley, (R-49), a founding member of Oath Keepers confirmed today his intention to introduce a resolution in the General Assembly to address the unconstitutional provisions in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012, which authorizes the "indefinite detention" of U.S. Citizens, "indefinitely expands" the Authorization for the Use of Military Force, " and essentially designates America as part of the "battlefield," thus placing the United States under the "law of war." President Obama signed the 2012 NDAA into law on Dec. 31, 2011.

In his signing statement , President Obama stated, "…I want to clarify that my Administration will not authorize the indefinite military detention without trial of American citizens." The President did not say that he "could not" detain U.S. citizens "indefinitely," he said he would not. The "requirement" for military to detain in H.R. 1540's conference report, Section 1022 is not a "prohibition" against it.

In his signing statement, President Obama, expressing his dissatisfaction with several sections of the bill stated, "…should any application of these provisions conflict with my constitutional authorities, I will treat the provisions as non-binding. " If the President thought parts were unconstitutional, why did he sign it?"
