I do agree with the broadness of it, the indefinate detention without due process isn't right to me and I believe that this bill will eventually be quashed by the courts as its a fundamental change in dealings with U.S. Citizens.

They're trying to generalize homeland security to deal with home grown terrorists in the same way.
