I don't know what people gave up? They looked in people's houses for a dangerous man, no one else was arrested so I think the manhunt was more important then anything else at that time.

So can I ask what is the appropriate way for a government to handle this situation? What do you say monday morning quarterbacks?

I was only responding about the Franklin quote, but since you insist upon antagonizing everyone who doesn't abide by your perspective, here's my take:

This administration is attempting to pass gun control laws while at the same time, it indulges in an inappropriate, wide scale display of force, which is akin to an effective form of martial law. This is the "what people gave up" part.

Handling the suspect in such fashion also constitutes a major contradiction with the habeas corpus, which is the corner stone of modern civilization, as you are enjoying right now. I don't understand how you can abide by these kind of practices, regardless of the evidence you think is acceptable to charge the suspect with.

The first step to tyranny is disarming the population and the formation of a police state. The second one is bypassing justice and its rigorous process on the premise of national priority. Look at what we have here. A single act of terrorism and the populace applauds while the fundamental ideals of its nation are being trampled by big centralized power.

No we have proof, security camera footage that is clear. But you want the time machine option that is ok.

Show me this video.

At least quote me correctly, don't pull out stuff to suit your needs.

I hate the people that stand in the corner and start questioning. There is nothing to question, there is proof definitive.

It changes nothing. It's still the mindset of every "good" citizen, from Athens onward.

Quote
I seen the raw video.

Not to be mean, but did you go to American public schools? Destruction of language is also destruction of critical thought so it might explain a lot.

Private school, and I haven't been to sleep in the past 24hrs.

As for criminal or pow, call him EITHER ONE, and treat him according to those rules.  Don't make up new ones.

They didn't make up news ones, those rules are clearly defined, we as a society have to protect more people then just one, and he obviously did it, there is video and pictures and people saw him leave the package, I mean what more do you need? A time machine so you can personally witness it come on.

A time machine would be ideal, but we don't have that. 

Call him a criminal, give him his miranda rights, put him in jail.  At that point, if the FEDS want to torture him for more information, they are going to do it. 

All I'm saying is that if they torture him, they are guilty too -- even if they removed a bomb from someone's house.  They still tortured a sick human being. 

Sometimes people are really really really sick and twisted and messed up (and they may never come back from it).  But to treat them as anything but sick is violent and will only bring more violence. 

Also, if you were in the area, take some fucking responsibility and check your house for bombs....  I mean, right?

I will not comment on 9/11 that actually affected my immediate family, I could only comment with emotion.

I lost a close friend that worked in NYC. It doesn't prevent me having the opinion that everything that came out of DC and the TV was unadulterated manure. What's doubly sorrowful is that my friend would have seen through the smokescreen also had he not been murdered by his own government.

You saw them retrieve this tape from the security camera? You watched it at the security station?

No? You watched a grainy video that the news station told you was from a security camera?

OK, just checking.

It is actually pretty clear but I guess CGI is so amazing, it is clearly him. And not on a news station. So wrong.

"The government is invoking the public safety exception to question Tsarnaev, meaning in cases of national security a person can be questioned without being read their Miranda rights,"

"Republican Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham called for Tsarnaev to be held as an enemy combatant."

DISGUSTING

Why is that disgusting? The guy bombed an area and killed people that is disgusting.


I like how you people in this thread are all up in arms about the government setting in effect actions to protect more people. This thread is just as bad as the anti-jewish threads. Seriously.

What was that quote By Ben Frankie... somethin about liberty and safety... hmm  Roll Eyes

So you want anarchy, we just all have weapons and protect ourselves?

"Enemy combatant" is bullshit.  You're either a criminal or a prisoner of war.

Just because we don't follow this rule anymore doesn't make it less true.  this is the same problem with Guantanamo Bay --- hundreds of people whisked away without a word, never to be seen or heard from again, with no say whatsover, no proof of anything, so on and so forth. 

If he wants to stay silent, that is his right.    If they want to torture him with my tax money, that is NOT their right.

Criminal = Miranda rights
POW = Geneva Convention.


The rest of the shit this country has pulled with extraordinary rendition and enemy combatants is complete bullshit and manipulation of the constitution. 

he is a criminal and should be treated as such, according to the rules of our society.  making up new rules and new categories doesn't cut it.

"Those who would give up Essential Liberty to purchase a little Temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."

You know what, he engaged the police with bombs and assault weapons, at that point he is an "Enemy combatant". So for public safely we should treat him like criminal and if he left bombs in houses and they blow up well then OOPS he had rights. Come on you don't believe that. If it was your family member blown up you be the first one down there asking to torture him.

Just remember the American government and media that youre currently abiding by are the same guys that sold you the 911 commission report. You know, the one that has been disproved by countless academics, architects and structural engineers who are leaders within their fields.

If it wasn't for physics debunking 9/11, I wouldn't be so skeptical now.    False flag terrorism is real, and we should be looking for it.  It is the most profitable endeavor I can think of  (considering government contracts awarded to private companies).

Proof, evidence or a hint of either. Thus far, we only have the word of two unreliable sources: government and media.

Well, you could always, I donno... present the evidence you're holding up as gospel.

Evidence requires questioning. That's a no-no, apparently.

Yes, if it was my family member I would be exceedingly emotional.  It would strain everything in my body and soul to try to forgive him.  I may or may not succeed.  But I would try.  I am trying now.

Incorrect, they have shown the video of him setting the package down and the package blowing up. So that is your proof.

You're more than welcome to believe what the government/media chooses to show you. I'd direct you to this American's words:

"Those who are capable of tyranny are capable of perjury to sustain it."

-Spooner


But explain how did they change a VIDEO from a security camera which clearly shows a man put the package down, and that package blowing up. Then that person's face is the same face as the that guy they were looking for. Plus he killed an MIT officer execution style, or is that made up. Come on guys, this whole thread is nasty. What do you want them to do nothing, oops a bomb went off, lets just forget it. In a time when a country was attacked and we should stand together, I hate the people that stand in the corner and start questioning. There is nothing to question, there is proof definitive. I seen the raw video.

I'm genuinely intrigued to see this video. Do you have a link?

Google it I don't remember what link I saw it on.
