Tuesday QT

Perhaps QT has a problem with this:

The terrorists win?

From Poor QT's Almanack:

On this day in history 329 years ago the British Parliament passed the Habeas Corpus Act, protecting against false arrest and imprisonment. The principles were later incorporated into the U.S. Constitution but are no longer in effect because of fears of the terrorist threat against Americans, many of whom seem to frighten more easily than in the past.

Well, to be fair, we did reject British rule...
