In point of fact, there may be such instances. It's the price of living in a free society.

in fact I gave a real world data point for my "hypo" where authorities knew a guy was jihadi but left him on the street. and I also extrapolated that M. Atta had committed no crime until he hijacked the plane, and asked what we should have done.
The only one who "keeps" doing the same thing is you. You won't admit that the executive postiion you advocate would prevent us from holding M. Atta.
by the way calling someone's arguments "fascist" is getting close to a n automatic loss, no?
