He's still an American citizen. He's not convicted yet. He has rights.
I know it sucks for those who want their pound of flesh but we must respect this guys rights.
He's not an enemy combatant. He's a citizen. Barely of voting age.
Look, I know for shitty cops those pesky constitutional rights are just a burden but we can't just not observe the constitution when it suits us. Or maybe someday, Steve, your rights will be ignored and when you need a lawyer or if you're wrongly accused you are tortured.
What kind of sick person says they have no problem with the government torturing an American?
That's fucked.
Yeah, he's an American citizen who's citizenship should have been revoked (his brother as well-even more so) and sent back to Russia. No....I don't need to respect the rights of a guy who is not only a suspect in the bombings, but has without a doubt thrown bombs at Police officers and shot at Police officers and killed an MIT officer in a car jacking. No, that special kind of person does not deserve any rights. All he's good for at this point is extracting information from, by whatever means necessary. With this asswipe there is no danger of him being wrongly accused. Even if he had no part in the bombings, everything he did while trying to evade arrest including killing and using deadly force to try to get away, is all I need to justify using any measures, including torture, to extract any information that might be obtained that might save more lives. Constitutional rights are not a burden, they just shouldn't be extended to those who are witnessed and filmed throwing bombs and shooting guns at Police officers. That kind of person deserves no such consideration. After extracting whatever information they might be able to get, they should put him in general population and let the other inmates save the cost of a trial too.
Holy fuck. It's a damn good thing you're not a cop anymore.
Didn't you have to swear to protect the constitution?
You POSITIVE that this guy was shooting at cops? Maybe it was his brother? Do you know? you don't, but you're so willing to strip his CITIZENSHIP and his RIGHTS?
You have no goddamn business wearing a badge.
this country is safer with you holding a paintbrush instead of a nightstick and a badge.
You justify him being in a car where SOMEONE is evading the cops as being a solid reason to TORTURE someone? Jesus Christ you are a terrible person.
Thank god above in all his glory you are no longer a cop.
