The administration’s effort to stretch a gap in the Miranda rule for questioning about immediate threats to public safety has alarmed advocates of individual rights.

Just a thought, but if the police are normally required to remind people of their Miranda rights, shouldn't they be routinely reminding everyone of their Second Amendment rights as well?

Boston Police announcement I would like to hear:

"We believe the two murdering terrorists are in the area. Local citizens are reminded that almost all law abiding citizens have the right to keep and bear arms - a right that shall not be infringed. If you call 9-1-1, the police will arrive within five to ten minutes in this emergency, while a .45 ACP will arrive at over 1000 feet per minute. Do the math."

I think you made a typo. 1K fpm = 16.7 fps.
