I suppose. But I'd rather not have seen the inevitable multiple trials and appeals and years of tax payers' dollars wasted and lawyer and court time tied up??..
Be much easier to take him out back, make him dig his hole and then shoot him twice and be done with it. They could draw straws amongst the victims familys to pull the trigger if they so desire for all i care. The gloves are off when it comes to nutbags like this that kill innocent people let alone kids.
Tho the "unflappable" USA seemed a bit flappable the past day or so and just from a couple of kids. I wonder if this gives anyone in power down there a moments pause...
If we sink to their level and just go the guantonamo route then they win. We're giving into the terrorism and compromising the very things we're talking about protecting.

I doubt anyone thinks this brief incident of domestic terrorism does anything to undermine the US' reputation as a dangerous and dominant superpower.Floats like a Kadri said:Tho the "unflappable" USA seemed a bit flappable the past day or so and just from a couple of kids.

How did they feel alienated? From everything I've read, there were alot of people that liked the brothers, & were shocked by what happened....especially shocked that the younger brother was involved. There were many accounts that he had alot of friends & lived a normal college life.moon111 said:From what I've read, they felt alienated in the North American culture.

Miranda or no Miranda, he is definitely getting convicted. The important part is getting maximum information from him. Therefore, he should be declared an "enemy combatant"...giving authorities unlimited time & latitude in questioning him. It doesn't matter that he is a US citizen, he is no different than a foreign terrorist.cw said:Here's the FBI's write up on Miranda rights

CONCLUSION
The "public safety" exception to Miranda is a powerful tool with a modern application for law enforcement. When police officers are confronted by a concern for public safety, Miranda warnings need not be provided prior to asking questions directed at neutralizing an imminent threat, and voluntary statements made in response to such narrowly tailored questions can be admitted at trial. Once the questions turn from those designed to resolve the concern for safety to questions designed solely to elicit incriminating statements, the questioning falls outside the scope of the exception and within the traditional rules of Miranda.
In general, I don't see a big problem with that.
Regardless, like any accused, he has the option of saying nothing.
Reportedly, they already confessed to the bombing of the marathon to the guy they carjacked.
In this particular case, I don't think they'll need any testimony from him to get a substantial conviction so it's not likely to be much of an issue should it go to trial.
