Now the perp has probably been Mirandized

Yes he has been

GOP tells Holder not to Mirandize Times Square bombing suspect

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., and other top Republicans on Tuesday said the suspect arrested for attempting to explode a car bomb in New York City should not have been read his Miranda rights.

McCain called the move "a bad mistake," and said the suspect, Faisal Shahzad, a naturalized U.S. citizen from Pakistan, was not entitled to be Mirandized.

"It's not a constitutional right," McCain said. "And he may have to be designated an enemy combatant."

Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, a former state supreme court justice, also said the suspect should not have been read a Miranda warning, which essentially alerts a suspect to a right to remain silent and a right to an attorney.

Federal officials said Tuesday that Shahzad was read his rights today after being questioned for a period of time. Attorney General Eric Holder said Shahzad is still cooperating and providing information to authorities.

The airport itself is full of passengers and potential weapons.

Is that Chief Moose? Put him on it. He’s pretty good at chasing down innocent white guys while the black Muslims are busy shooting up his town.

I’m not understanding your point, unless you’re saying that that security would be better on an airplane versus customs? If so, I disagree.

The guy should’ve raised all kinds of red flags, ABC news (on radio) said he made his reservation on the way to the airport and paid with cash.

He also likely had minimal baggage, I wonder if he bought a one way ticket ?

Oops...my bad. There's about as much English stuff on here as American these days...and obama is taking us so close to their laws, it's hard to tell the difference.

Nevermind....

FNC has been running a clip called “From Day One”, where they show comment after comment from the administration, saying, “From day one...[we’ve been on top of this]”.

It is hysterical to see and hear all these clowns try to convince the public that THEY were on top of the oil spill, the illegal immigration, the NYC bomber, etc,... “FROM DAY ONE”!

Sorry state of affairs when we have to count on the incompetence of terrorists for safety.

I think it would be easier to apprehend a suspect on a plane rather than in a crowded terminal where the perp could run, or do any number of other things, with potentially thousands of people at risk. Strapped into a seat makes you more vulnerable to a couple of guys standing up.

It does not matter, though- it looks like they did not deliberately let him on the plane, if in fact he got on. There is a little cloudiness as to just where he was nabbed.

This pic reminds me of the all the school busses sitting in five feet of water after Katrina hit New Orleans. Definitely a Marxist photo op moment. Apparently the Onada propaganda organs are so busy staging fiction the regime has no idea what’s really going on.

Law enforcement and intelligence officials don’t owe a public explanation for everything they do. They probably had a good reason for letting him get as far as boarding the plane, and there may well have been a raft of LE and intel operatives on the plane to keep tabs on him. I’d be interested to know (but have no business knowing) whether his luggage, if any, actually made it onto the plane. My guess is that it didn’t.

Dumb ass.

"That there Republican Finance chairperson in LA is still under wraps, tho."

Speaking of that, does anyone know what the latest is concerning the New Orleans hate crime against conservatives and the N.O. police investigation?
