We sacrifice lives every day for what we hold to be American values. Ask Judge Roll in Tucson -- oh wait, he's dead from an easily obtained gun.

If we are <i>serious</i> about what we believe, we live up to those beliefs -- especially when it's hard to do. That includes humane treatment of our enemies, presumption of innocence, trial by jury, respect for religious creeds. To do otherwise is cowardly.
