A senior Pentagon official in charge of military detainees suspected of terrorism said in an interview this week that he was dismayed that lawyers at many of the nation’s top firms were representing prisoners at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, and that the firms’ corporate clients should consider ending their business ties.
For those who wish to yell about the Geneva Conventions … a few points. The Conventions were designed to encourage countries and combatants to follow the rules of war by offering them protections if they go along. If a combatant wishes to wage war not in accordance with the rules of war they are unlawful combatants and do not have single right of a POW.

Consider the following excerpt from a story in the St. Petersburg Times
"BROOKSVILLE — A Hernando judge Monday threw out the case against a 46-year-old woman accused of driving drunk while operating her wheelchair.
"Judge Peyton Hyslop, in one of his last rulings from the bench, said the wheelchair essentially was the woman's legs and that charging her in this case would be tantamount to bringing DUI charges against anyone who was drunk and standing up…..Hyslop said under those terms, an able-bodied totally intoxicated person sitting next to the impaired disabled person "would not be subject to such arrest, and only to arrest if disorderly".
"(The woman) acknowledged having a few beers while taking her prescription medication. She suffers from degenerative disc disease, osteoarthritis and scoliosis, according to court documents…."

A rape law making it an offence to have sex with a woman who has reached a set level of drunkeness is to be proposed in the UK.
A woman would be considered incapable of giving consent to sex if she had been drinking heavily. A recent UK study found that in 120 cases of sexual assault examined by researchers, in 119 cases the woman had been drinking.
In the UK, the law already suggests that a woman who is asleep or unconscious is less likely to have consented to sex. Since 2003, a man accused of rape has had to show he had "reasonable" grounds for believing a woman consented. Before then, he had only to demonstrate that he believed she had consented.
