The reading to him of his rights IS NOT ITSELF in the Constitution.

As a citizen, he should already know his rights and he can exercise them if he wishes.

The Constitution does not give the state the responsibility of educating a citizen of all their individual rights, so Miranda is a mistake. Miranda assumes that it is a state responsibility to educate the citizen.

The Constitution assumes some people will be dumb and stupid. Always has been the case, always will be.

If the state is responsible for educating a citizen of his/her rights, where does it end? Shouldn’t then the whole Bill of Rights - or the whole constitution be read to them?

Your reasoning is neither sound nor logical.

Especially since you are stating that he indeed might be working for a foreign state or group......at which point he is a treasonous citizen...

Please read the constitution and the precedence in law.

Miranda Rights is merely a "reading of the Constitution".

P.S. You're wrong on every point.

I vote we move the bomber’s trial to Cardassia.

That would be a speedy quick trial.
