"Van Chester Thompkins was considered a suspect in a fatal shooting on January 10, 2000 in Southfield, Michigan. After advising Thompkins of his Miranda rights, police officers interrogated him. Thompkins did not state at any time that he wanted to rely on his right to remain silent, nor that he did not want to talk to the police, nor that he wanted an attorney. The court record suggested that he had been almost completely silent during the 3-hour interrogation and the few sporadic comments he made had no bearing on the case[3] (police described it as "nearly a monologue"[4]), but near the end, detectives changed their approach and "tried a spiritual tac[k]" [5] and an "appeal to his conscience and religious beliefs".[6] Thompkins was asked in sequence - did he believe in God, did he pray to God, and did he pray to God to forgive him for shooting the victim. He answered "yes" to each of these.[1][2] Thompkins made a motion to suppress his statements, claiming that he had invoked his Fifth Amendment right to remain silent, that he had not waived that right, and that his inculpatory statements were involuntary. The trial court denied his motion and Thompkins was found guilty by a jury and sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. Of note, there had been significant other evidence of guilt corroborating the conviction.[7]"

I know of nothing in the Bill of Rights that requires cops to stop interrogating the guilty when the guilty don't tell them to stop and send in a criminal defense attorney.   It is fair and reasonable that people tell the police they will not make any statements until they have seen an attorney.

Citizens United is a great example of the Democrats stripping us of our rights. Citizens United was a non-profit corporation set up by citizens to express their viewpoint.

"In the wake of these decisions allowing the promotion of the documentary Fahrenheit 9/11 during the 2004 campaign, Citizens United sought to run television commercials during the 2008 campaign promoting its political documentary Hillary: The Movie, which is critical of then-Senator Hillary Clinton, and to air the movie on DirecTV.[8] In January 2008, the United States District Court for the District of Columbia ruled that the commercials violated provisions in the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 (McCain

stick to it, reagan when he started sucked too.  But he got better.  your way works for you.  me I have had it with pretending this is just the give and take of normal life.  I will not be a drone.

BTW if Citizens United went the other way, NOW, NARAAL, NORML, the ACLU, NAACP would not be allowed to reference elections or candidates.  That's why those organizations --founded by citizens to express their views politically -- all wrote briefs to the Supreme Court urging them to allow corporate free speech.  Though they don't say so now when a Democrat makes hay bitching about it.  Cowards!

move to Ciudad Juarez and change your name to Miguel Harrero and truck from there, Obama's DOT is paying Mexican truckers to convert to US standard vehicles

whoop forgot my own rule - when you make a fake Mexican identity add "Andrade"

Miguel Carlos Andrade Herrero

Mexican drivers are being paid for emissions and mileage standards.

They will still retain their 300 gallons in fuel tanks compared to US standard of 200 gallon tanks.

They will buy heavily subsidized Mexican fuel (which US trucks are not allowed to use) and drive forever and a day on cheaper fuel.

With the Obama aim to destroy US trucking and replace it with Mexican trucking you might have an idea.

if the supreme court leaves Obamacare intact with the mandate it will only have heard argument from the states

it will still be optional for a citizen to protest

I maintain I cannot be ordered to confess a failure to comply in order to be fined without trial
I will send in my 1040 marked "Fifth Amendment" when it comes to the mandate
Let them come for me

Romney looks like a criminal in a  cheap 80s TV show like "A-Team" or "The Fall Guy"

Because all true Conservatives decided that the GOP is dirty and they could get infected if they tried to shove our liberals out of the GOP pool.

You can choose not to play, but then you get this... where you hope for the least evil to get elected.

I have only donated to one campaign ever (besides my own ofc).

But if Sarah had run I would have made a max donation the same day she announced (or as soon as I could).

I chose her years ago.

Others called her damaged goods... what were we left with though?

Participation is necessary. I would recruit all Conservatives if I could. The ability to take back our party exists, and therefore our nation as well. I tried to recruit you. I failed
