Gitmo detainees

Everyday it's something new! Now FNC is reporting that the Obama administration is thinking of buying an under utilized prison facility in the midwest and housing the detainees there. WHY for heavens sake. What's wrong with leaving them where they are. No one has escaped from there yet, the climate is similar to what they're used to and the military are better equipped to house them. Americans don't want them in our neighborhoods. Why won't this administration listen to the will of the people!?
