As numerous right-wing extremists prepare to defend Seditious Conspiracy charges in April,

it seems likely that other serious federal felony trials will be necessary in the not-too-distant future. No one can predict what will happen, of course, but if past experience is any indication, some of these "foot soldiers", once they begin to seriously consider what a couple decades in prison would mean for them, will begin to buy leniency by offering evidence of the "higher ups" who were co-conspirators.

Who knows how many prison beds might eventually be necessary? Where will we put all these thugs? Not to worry---I've got this.

The government prison facility at beautiful Guantanamo Bay at one time housed 558 prisoners. The prisoner population is now---39. If my math is correct, there is room for 519 more inmates down there.

While I think that may be more spaces than we will ever fill, ya just never know. Every time I think my list names every possible candidate for a Gitmo address, I think of 2 or 3 more who deserve to work on their tans in Cuba.

You're welcome.
