Miranda rights

I don't understand why liberals get bent out of shape when a terrorist isn't read his Miranda rights immediately. What he says can't be used in court, so what's the big deal? He was in a firefight with police - reason enough to question him. Public safety is at risk here. An immediate issue, and the courts won't use the information, so what's the big deal? I guess I'm a hopeless case: the left can piss me off as much as the right.

Remember, I'm the guy who believes the Kennedy assassination was a coup d'etat orchestrated by the CIA, not a law and order whacko.
