Permanent residents have largely the same protections and rights as citizens. "...have largely the same protections..." is the key phrase here. The government could very easily take those rights and protections away, however I think the uproar that would come from the citizens prevents the government from doing this.

I don't believe every country should adopt the U.S. people's views or way of governing, however, I do not like the fact that my government would promote differing views that go against the basic ideals that our country was founded. Hence, my "disgusting" comment in regards to a treaty that would force citizens of another country to house our soldiers.

*Scratches head* I hope that made some sense. :-)
