We call them "goys" and I think the rules have to do with necessities. Like turning on lights and babysitting children. They're seen as routine things and the exchange of money wouldn't happen on the Sabbath. But we can't hire someone to do our make-up the one time.

Depending on how serious you are about it, you actually can't have them do things for you. Like for instance if I followed those laws I could not follow a person into an elevator and ask them to press my floor for me. I would have to take the stairs. Or if you lived in/worked in/were visiting a Jewish Home you would…

Major props for Breakfast Club.

I think that's pretty much E!'s selling point for this show though. "He's hot, he's kinda stupid and people will hate watch the shit out of this," I imagine them saying.

They're probably afraid he'll stop cooperating (which at least right now he seems to be doing), which is exactly what happened in the "underwear bomber" case. He was cooperating at first but once they read his rights he stopped for a month.

Also, considering he's pretty seriously injured and hospitalized I feel like taking an extra 12-24 hours to really narrow down exactly what you're going to charge him with (especially if he continues to talk) is really not a surprise. He's not being held in a jail cell, he shot himself in the throat and is probably…

I very much agree with all of this. He's making comparisons with things that have no basis for it. I very much believe that if there were unknown bombs in any of those situations they certainly would have shut down everything as fast as they possibly could have.

I still feel like that's comparing apples and oranges. If it was a comparison of how other countries treat the same situation I would maybe be open to the idea, but he's only contrasting extremely different situations in America itself (Bombs vs gun violence vs industrial explosions vs "Obamacare"? None of these are…

The West, TX incident happened in the middle of an already unfortunate week that was bookended by events in Boston. It is getting coverage and not just in local trade press. But the thing about it is that there is no recent news from the area because they are in a recovery and investigation stage and have been since…

I understand, and in some cases agree, with what he's saying, but I dislike the phrasing of the headline. It's assuming a lot to insinuate that the U.S. citizens or the government is only concerned when the terror is from a foreign and outside source. My impression was that the city wide shutdown was to keep Tasarnaev…

I also heard this happened! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/04/20/nei…

According to this NYTimes article delaying Miranda rights is really limited. "The court later created an exception, allowing prosecutors to use statements made before any warning in response to questions about immediate threats to public safety, like where a gun is hidden." It also talks about the 2009 underwear…

By working alone I simply meant not in cahoots with a larger organization. OKC wasn't some big plan set up by a named group, it was two anti-government nutjobs (I always forget about Terry Nichols) trying to make a point.

McVeigh's capture is also not comparable to Bin Laden's death announcement. A three day search to find the guy already sitting in your jail cell is VERY different from 10 years and a war. I'm sure if McVeigh had alluded the authorities the way this kid did and caused the city to go on lockdown the citizens would have…

I'm wondering if it's because with the current situation there could possibly be a foreign connection. I think at the time McVeigh was pretty clearly a domestic threat working alone. Although I could be wrong.

I thought so but wasn't sure what the requirement was for the situation and didn't want to assume.

Question: McVeigh was arrested for an illegally concealed weapon on his person and driving without plates. So obviously, he was read his Miranda rights for that situation. When they connected him with the OKC bombing he was still in jail. I don't know what the procedure is but if it's not necessary to re-arrest him do…

To my knowledge, no. But that was also nearly 20 years ago and the circumstances were certainly different. It was the early days of the internet in 1995. I spent most of yesterday glued to the TV and when I finally turned it off I had the NYTimes news feed keeping me updated on my computer and the Boston PD twitter…

This video needs to come with a warning. That poor kid.

Brittany Snow and Anna Camp have actually also been in several big name movies and television shows. Even some of the supporting cast was recognizable (Christopher Mintz-Plasse).
