LONDON (Reuters) - Abuse of prisoners at Guantanamo Bay has worsened sharply since President Barack Obama took office as prison guards "get their kicks in" before the camp is closed, according to a lawyer who represents detainees.

"According to my clients, there has been a ramping up in abuse since President Obama was inaugurated," said Ghappour, a British-American lawyer with Reprieve, a legal charity that represents 31 detainees at Guantanamo.
He stressed the mistreatment did not appear to be directed from above, but was an initiative undertaken by frustrated U.S. army and navy jailers on the ground. It did not seem to be a reaction against the election of Obama, a Democrat who has pledged to close the prison camp within a year, but rather a realization that there was little time remaining before the last 241 detainees, all Muslim, are released.

Abu Ghraib guards just having fun, court told
"They were joking around; they didn't think it was that serious," said Special Agent Paul Arthur, who headed the initial investigation at Abu Ghraib and said the soldiers appeared to be venting their frustrations
If there can be calls to impeach George Bush because a few people were just trying to have fun and were joking around at Abu Ghraib, then there can be calls to impeach Barry Obama because of a few people just trying "to get their kicks in" at Gitmo

If you think what went on there was "joking" around - your a sad individual.

"Law enforcement’ is not something sovereign citizens seize from police officers. It is a societal function that citizens delegate to civil police.

In so doing, we do not abdicate our own sovereignty, nor our duties as citizens. Ultimate responsibility is still ours. When those we hire as our “Protectors” are either unwilling or unable to perform that function at the critical moment, there is no law, nor standard, that says we cannot perform it for ourselves"........ John Farnam.
