Have we been actively "at war" for 18 months? If my memory serves me correctly (which is questionable), we haven't.
Of course we've been occupying and "guarding" many places around the world for years, so *technically* they could hold anyone and say it's a "time of war".

playing semantics over 300 year old and irrelevent wording does not make either side of the argument more correct.
"public danger" - how many terrorist attacks were there in the last two years targeting westerners? how many plots foiled?
