Strongly disagree
Yes, give them a fair trial and shut down Guantanamo Bay
The issue of Guantanamo Bay did not arise during Ford's presidency, so it's difficult to say how he would feel about it. However, given his strong stance against international terrorism, it's unlikely he would support shutting it down and giving foreign terrorism suspects a fair trial.
