When SCOTUS rulings become part of our lexicon, should we stop debating them?

Does he also want to repeal the 6th and 7th Amendments?

Ironically the court ruling in his favor hurt him more than helped him. While he was found not guilty of the rape and thus freed, He was murdered a few years later. Had he been imprisoned he might’ve lived longer. Since the ruling subsequent courts have reduced the scope of the warnings.

As with the PATRIOT act, be careful what you wish for, because it can be used either way. There were several folks, even on this site, who changed their tunes about it when a new administration came in.

You should never get let of “on a technicality”
If a cop does something ILLEGAL to discover your crime, then you BOTH did something illegal. And both should be charged.
But if you get arrested and spill your guts- before they “read you your rights” then you’re a dumbass. Its not their fault you are. You were probably a dumbass long before you met them.

Miranda has pretty much been destroyed by subsequent courts. It’s power exists much more in popular opinion and media than in actual courtrooms.

The Miranda case {Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 (1966)} was such a paradox. If the court[s] demands that ignorance of the law is no excuse, why would they (U.S. Courts) insist that the same rights that they (Persons of Interest) are not ignorant of, be read at the time of arrest?
