What do you think will happen?

Even since President Obama (I will never tire of saying that) signed an executive order closing the prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, republicans are going nuts. They claim that these men are dangerous, and that no one anywhere will want to house them. They claim they will break out of whatever prison they are housed in. Apparently they have a bunch of emaciated, likely schizophrenic south western Asians confused with Steve McQueen in the great escape. What many of them forget is that the US already has terrorists on our soil. We have for decades. The following is but a sampling of the terrorists held at the ADX Federal Prison in Florence Colorado, known colloquially as "SuperMax". (Full list here)
