Geez, most of the world will be off-limits by that rule...

It's been in the books since the 1800s.
It's the bounty hunter concept.
A private citizen schlepping another private citizen from one jurisdiction to another, by force.
American judges seem to think that is perfectly OK.
In 1982(?) American bounty hunters abducted a Mexican national, who was wanted on charges in the US, and smuggled him to the US.
This of cause violated Mexican law. Caused quite the hoopla.
And it wasn't an unique case.
In that case it has nothing to do with Bush at all.

Typical BT rhetoric. First he denies that Bush ever did anything of the sort, then once it is reported that others did it too, then all of a sudden it is OK because Bush didn't do it first.

Plus, the way the rag is written is one-sided. No comment is given as to why the law is in place. And it is written in true National Enquirer fashion so it is hard to know the reality through all the smoke they blow.
Bush still has had nothing to do with it either way.
