It does not give the authorities some unlimited right to ask any kind of questions they want, or use any tactics they want, to gain information.
Guin--someone asked me a question about this exception that I don't know; does the subject of the interrogation still have a right to remain silent (or can he be coerced?). And does he have a right to suspend questioning until his counsel is present? Do you know.
They have ways to make him talk?
(It needs a german accent. )
People always talk about the right to remain silent but its more the ability that's wanted in practice.
To a certain extent that's true, but many practices, from use of stress positions, to interrogation round the clock for hours, to sleep deprivation, to outright torture can strongly encourage, if not make, one talk against his interest--which is why we have the right to counsel and the right to refuse to answer anything. The news media are treating the exception as applying only to the elimination of the requirement to give the Miranda warnings, but my guess is that it goes much further.
Thank god I NEVER do anything wrong or illegal. Since 1979 my PA automobile tag has read "GUILTY." Why? I was raised catholic. Any questions?
I'm just glad I wasn't visiting my relatives in the Boston area on Monday. If the BPD had spotted my plates I'd be in for a heap-o-trouble. The Boys are really good at giving out the ol' "wood shampoo" in the elevators at the Plaza.

And does he have a right to suspend questioning until his counsel is present?
I would certainly hope not....
It seems to me the whole advantage of being able to question him without mirandizing him is to be able to question him without an attorney...
The downside to this procedure is that they wouldn't be able to use a confession in court, but it's not like they need a confession to make their case against him.
Throw him in a cell in Super Max like they did Kcyzinsky(sp) and forget about him.
BOSTON (AP) — Federal public defenders have agreed to represent the suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings.
Miriam Conrad, the federal defender for Massachusetts, says her office expects to represent Dzhokhar Tsarnaev (joh-KHAR' tsahr-NEYE'-ehv) after he is charged.
Tsarnaev remained hospitalized Saturday after being wounded in a firefight with police Friday. His brother was killed.
Conrad says she believes Dzhokhar should have a lawyer appointed as soon as possible because there are "serious issues regarding possible interrogation."
U.S. officials said a special interrogation team for high-value suspects would question him without reading him his Miranda rights, under a public safety exception that exists to protect police and the public from immediate danger. Miranda rights include the right to remain silent and the right to have a lawyer.
Your collective inability to acknowledge this obvious truth makes you all look like fools.
That's what I would be afraid of. It's times like this, when emotions are running high, that it is more important than ever to avoid descending to that level.

He is also a US citizen on US soil if his rights are not safe neither are yours.
I expected to be placed in an air force combat position such as security police, forward air control, pararescue or E.O.D. I would have liked dog handler. I had heard about the dog Nemo and was highly impressed. “SFB” is sad I didn’t end up in E.O.D.
It might be successfully argues that this cretin, due to such horrendous subversive activity, took a false oath of US citizenship last year. I feel that there was concealment of facts, or straight out lying, about important issues at the time this asshole was interviewed by the Citizenship and Immigration Service about his application for naturalization.
Of course, it may be a legal broad stroke but it appears to me that this "alleged" bomber should have his citizenship revoked. I surely feel the nature of this crime supports such action. Violent extremism at its most calculated. Squeeze him dry and place him in solitary for the rest of his unnatural, miserable, life.

"MA Honda heading to Manhattan with Driver wearing Suicide Vest!!!..."
This hot flash first appeared on the Interweb five (5) days ago. I suspect the driver is traveling at a very, very, slow speed, or he got lost in Yonkers.
This shit news is so easily debunked upon a simple web search. Why do you feel is it worthy of a comment?
"is there anything to this:" I'm with Joe... NO!!!

I don’t have the capability to view web videos of any kind.
