No detainee from GITMO should be tried in a United States court.

What a slap in the face to all those families who lost loved ones on 9/11 to bring those terrorists back to the scene of the crime and then give them the same rights as law abiding American citizens have. This would be a travesty and anyone who makes this happen should be treated as the enemy.
As far as I am concerned, terrorist DO NOT HAVE ANY RIGHTS, and certainly the rights of American's do not apply to people who want to blow up our country!! It is not their priviledge to receive the same priviledges that we do!!! They should not be treated as Americans. They deserve harsh treatment because their cause is terror to Americans.
That we would even CONSIDER doing this is utterly preposterous!!! These detainees are TERRORISTS!!! They are WAR CRIMINALS! They do not DESERVE the rights we offer someone who commits a crime in our society!!!
Haven't you heard? Americans DO NOT want terrorists tried as civilians. THEY are WAR CRIMINALS and should be tried as war criminals.
I lost someone I loved on 9-11. I was also there as an EMT to witness the aftermath. Do not re-open wounds that have not healed. Holding the trial in NYC is a slap in the face to every New Yorker. If terrorists can take lives without a thought of conscience, then they can sit through a military tribunal. THEY ARE WAR CRIMINALS, and should be treated as such.
Everyone I speak to DO NOT want these Trials in New York. LISTEN to them! Information will be available to them that terrorists should NOT have. Bless our wonderful troops!
This trial should be held at GITMO ... do not give these terrorists any forum to have their "cause" highlighted! Honor those who died on 9/11 and keep these criminals out of our country!
