Miranda Rights for Terrorists

Miranda Rights for Terrorists

Barry has lost his mind.

the Obama Justice Department has quietly ordered FBI agents to read Miranda rights to high value detainees captured and held at U.S. detention facilities in Afghanistan, according a senior Republican on the House Intelligence Committee. “The administration has decided to change the focus to law enforcement. Here’s the problem. You have foreign fighters who are targeting US troops today – foreign fighters who go to another country to kill Americans. We capture them…and they’re reading them their rights – Mirandizing these foreign fighters,” says Representative Mike Rogers, who recently met with military, intelligence and law enforcement officials on a fact-finding trip to Afghanistan.

What's wrong with miranda rights? Do we get to make up a new process because they're enemy combatants even though we never declared "war".

I see your point.

However, US personnel, mirandizing terrorists in a foreign land seems a little odd to me.

Id like to mirandize them by shooting them all in the face with a .50 cal round.

we are becoming way to soft of a country. this is absolutely insane

pretty soon it will be "unconstitutional" to shoot them

I missed that part the first time around. That sounds completely unecessary.


Was there something wrong with what we were doing before? Is there precedence of the US military doing this in the past?

It's all part of the new U.S.-Iraq Security Agreement. Effective since last year, U.S. military personnel have to obtain search warrants via the provisional judge before they can raid a house.

Certain constitutional rights are irrelevant of citizenship.

The only time I could see this being a bad thing is if we wanted to keep the rights hidden from the people we take prisoner. /sarcasm

This definitely sounds like a good thing, then. If we want them to respect our rights, we need to respect theirs.

But not if "happiness" involves lawn darts, a cheddar cheese log, Mickey Mouse, and a tranny named Russel.

In addition, Obama is paying a detainee a nice hotel resort room fee and helping him find a job in Bermuda... What the ****, for all we know they were plotting to blow us up!
