Yes.
"And finally, the court's conservatives used their 5-4 advantage to rule that suspects must break their silence and tell police they are going to remain quiet if they want to invoke their "right to remain silent" and stop an interrogation, just as they must tell police that they want a lawyer."

- thaumaturgy 16y agoYeah, I agree there. That was seriously out-of-place and unnecessary.
- sdp 16y agoIf you agree, would you care to point out what is badly written about that quote?

- ars 16y agoDoes this surprise you? It shouldn't. Despite the perception on the internet, there is a reason half of the population leans conservative.
