Minnesota is the Massachusetts of the midwest.

While this ruling ticks me off, it sounds like the prosecution has enough other evidence to convict without the statement in the re-trial.

Why is it that with the IRS, they don’t take ignorance of the law as an excuse (what’s the tax table up to now, 14,000 pages), but if your a stinking criminal, you have to be read a poem about your rights . . . a set of words, by the way, that cannot be found in the Constitution?

Yo no se.
Attn: Illegals. Come to Minnesota and commit all the crimes you want. When they catch you, claim you don’t understand English and they will let you go.

What a stupid decision. It evidently mean police country-wide have to employ/have access to interpreters of every language.
Do Liberals drink tainted water?
