So That 2002 Won't Be Like 1942

Via The Memory Blog, Alternet has a good article about the arrests made in the post-WTC attack sweeps. Evidently none of those persons were ever convicted of anything, save one, whose conviction has been overturned. I remember that incident being one of the scariest things I had ever seen in the United States: people rounded up en masse, no charges released to the press, held incommunicado, if I recall correctly. Of course, I have seen things almost as scary since, but that was the beginning.
