@SteveBellovin@mattblaze LOAC is not my bag, but if they’re held outside the US I don’t see a basis for an REP. Maybe the Geneva Conventions confer certain rights and protections; I’d be astonished if any of those are framed in the terminology of the Katz test.

I believe it was Popehat who famously observed, “Even if you fuck goats ironically, you’re still a goatfucker.”
Wondering whether an indescribably stupid war with Iran will be enough to get the National Guard members deployed to DC pulled out. I don’t wish death on these people from Kentucky & who the hell knows where else but I’m fucking sick of having squads of camo-clad soldiers kitted out in full death-dealing gear uselessly patrolling subway platforms and the shopping mall at Union Station.

Musings on DC, ancient Greek, depressingly overweening (in every possible sense) US fascism.
