Second Amendment, you are right to hold to the Constitution in all events and not be carried away by anger over a single occurrence - however justified your anger may be.

While I might question why we ever granted citizenship to Muslims immigrating violent Islamic radical hotbeds like Chechnya in the first place, the fact is that Tsarnaev is a citizen of the United States of America. He is charged with committing a heinous crime on American soil; however, until he is tried and convicted in a court of law, Tsarnaev is entitled to every right of an American citizen. No American has the authority to strip another of his citizenship on the basis of an accusation, however serious. If we who love the Constitution would deny any American citizen his rights prior to trial, then we no longer have any assurance of our own rights. If a trial verdict is not necessary to deny Tsarnaev his rights, then no trial will be necessary to deny us our own.

We have nothing to fear from recognizing Tsarnaev's rights as an American citizen. We have much to fear from denying those rights without due process.

"I do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same... So help me God."

So help me God.
