MIT and Watertown Police dramas, right now. 1 officer killed, 1 at large. Oy. — Page 9

I will say AGAIN I think Miranda is importantand a wonderful invention. It prevents abuse by police.but if your a terrorist you shouldn't be protected by it. I don't understand whyh this is getting people here upset. The justice dept and president seem to agree with me by calling this terrorism and suspending Miranda.

Pj I respect you to much to get into it with you but animal is kind for 2 monster s who kill innocents and throw bombs at police.

Like the house elves before Hermoine started organizing them for liberation. Somebody give Sue a sock. (Get it?)

Sue, there should be no exceptions to the Miranda. Unless you're really comfortable with people being disappeared for 48 hours and tortured into confessions. I realize be it ever so humble, there's no place like home for you but remember: you like it here because it the US is better than that.

I believe the Patriot Act was an overreach since the day the Bush administration pushed it through. It's still an over reach. I'm amazed by how glibly you stated this kid should be thrown into Gitmo without trial, you know, given your life history. I also believe that you have implied that if people don't refer to this kid as an animal and if we don't believe in the suspension of constitutional rights, even for "just" two days, we must not be as angry as you and must want the kid let go on a technicality. I believe you have linked the level of outrage as reflective of all of our patriotism.

Again, if you love what this country soooooo much, why don't you love what it supposedly stands for?

I never said or implied anyone should call them animals. That's what I think they are and lots of others feel that way too..but that's actually an insult to animals. I don't think they kill other innocent animals for no reason

So Mr Namo Since the president Is using the patriot act and as you know has refused to end it does that mean he doesn't love what the country stands for? Of course not. Me neither.

Ok my ride back to Brooklyn is about over and I've gotten in enough trouble for playing with my Fing phone! Have a nice night. Goodnight.

""I just can't figure out why they would (a) confess to him and (b) let him go."

As I understood the narrative, that wasn't confessing or bragging, that was the threat used to commandeer the car. "We're the marathon bombers, we just killed a cop, what makes you think we won't kill you?" Also, the story I heard was that they had the guy for half an hour and made him withdraw $800 from an ATM for them. He escaped when they were gassing up the car. That's how the high speed chase ensued, when the guy called the cops and told him they were in his car.

The story I heard about the convenience store robbery was that they did not rob the convenience store but that it had been robbed by somebody else. When the cops looked at the security cam, the younger brother was among the people who had gone in the store that afternoon, before their photos were released. I have not heard that corroborated by anybody but the person who explained it to me this afternoon when I asked the same question.

The guy face down on the ground and later stripped naked wasn't one of the two bombers. It was a Watertown citizen who decided the yellow crime scene tape did not apply to him and that he was free to move about the locked down area. The cops held him at gun point and had him strip to make sure there was no explosive vest on him. At that point they had no idea if he was an unidentified accomplice.

---

Not only was he run over but the SUV even dragged him down the street.

The other possibility is that if he indeed was wearing explosives then it might have been an attempt to set them off.

"Adams defended the Redcoats at great risk to his law practice and family. But he established a integral principle that Americans must defend to the death: The right of every American to a fair trial."

And ironically, it was Adams who signed some of the most embarrassing and un-American legislation of all time, the Alien and Sedition Acts.

Namo even though I admire obamas view on them, I give you props for being consistant and bashing obama on his patriot acrt, gitmo, drones etch. I guess according to you though we don't admire what the country stands for due to these views. That's silly

Ok pj . You get on me for calling these guys animals and have the nerve to say make that BANE statement about me cuzz we disagree . Dont you see how ridiculous that sounds. You should rethink that.

Hey would you guys complain about Lincoln suspending HC and allowing torture if you were around then?

Boston Globe video chronicling the last week

Dropping these movie references (I assume Bane means The Dark Knight Rises villain) as a defense can only mean 24 and Red Dawn are to follow.

Weird autocorrect for "name"
