Should Miranda Rights Be Stripped From Citizens?

Yes what this Naturalized Citizen (even if by marriage) which seems to be the HUGE fad now in days with so many coming into the US, or dropping a baby, student visas, or just crossing that border(like I’ve been saying for years about the unsecured Mexican border, to be honest in most cases can you tell the difference between someone south of the border and Pakistan/middle eastern on just a glimpse or sight )but if we take away this terrorists Miranda Rights we could and are taking them from every United States citizen) I mean on first thoughts that they capture one of these idiots your(including myself) all gun ho about slap the book at them, kill them etc. But that is the beauty of the Miranda rights that you are innocent until proven guilty even when you have obvious proof that they are guilty, and some legal eagle/beagle salivates at don’t worry about it they have nothing to hold you on because they didn’t read you your rights and they are free to commit more crimes.

(jlh/bn) “Did they Mirandize him? I know he’s an American citizen but still,” King said in a Politico interview — a comment that enraged his online critics.  The arguments against reading Shahzad his rights show “just how far the Republican Party has moved away from a basic element of law enforcement (used often by, among others, the Bush administration’s Department of Justice),” charged the Huffington Post’s Sam Stein. And he noted that “no less a conservative voice” than Glenn Beck spoke out in favor of Mirandizing Shahzad.
“He’s a citizen of the United States, so I say we uphold the laws and the Constitution on citizens,” Beck declared on “Fox & Friends” today.

“‘But still’ indeed. Now there is a powerful argument for jettisoning cherished freedoms for the sake of … something!” Eric Martin responded on the Obsidian Wings blog. Joe Sudbay of AMERICAblog News also seized on King’s “but still” remark, accusing the congressman of “politicizing the issue and undermining the Constitution.”More
