What's up with the use of the word "allegedly?"
Why apply a United States 5th Amendment concept of innocent until proven guilty to a crime committed in international waters off the coast of Somalia? Are we going to read these pirates their Miranda rights, too? Here's an idea, they don't get Miranda rights, or any other United States Constitutional protections because they are not in the United States, the crime was not committed in the United States, and they are not United States residents.

—Agree. And if the Libs’ idea is that applying these legal concepts to cases like this somehow shows “more justice” to the world (unlike the old way of doing things)... well, it sure isn’t helping reduce terrorism and killings.

—You’re innocent until proven guilty by the Left. Unless you’re a “Teabagger” or Sarah Palin...
