Look at this for a status on my news feed

''i actually cant help but feel sorry for that bomber on the run now''

Yeah dont feel sorry for the victims :rolleyes:

CNN providing a description of the guy, asking people to contact the police if they see him. All good but interesting that they made a point of saying "Suspect is a Muslim". As if that helps people identify him better??

In times like this, to most Americans, all Muslims look the same.
So just grab anyone you see that is Muslim.

My wife made a good point last night about the location of the bombs, behind the flags at the finish line, indicating some larger motive, not necessarily anti-US.

Possible motive being a protest at the UN's inaction about what Russia has done to Chechnya?

who_me · 19-04-2013 03:26PM

Sorry, but had to laugh when I read these bits a few pages back..

Younger brother may have suicide vest.
Older brother may have had detonation trigger.
Younger brother may have run over older brother.

Yeah.

Horrible thing to say, but maybe if he had died, instead of the brother, the brother would've suffered a little.

It's possible that this kid got roped into something he didn't understand.

At 19 years old barring severe mental illness you know what will happen when you leave a bomb next to innocent bystanders. He killed an 8 year old boy and blew his younger sisters leg off and people on here are trying to cut him slack?? I hope he is caught alive so we can get more info on motive etc.

Why of course, just look out for someone matching his description who stops to pray in the direction of Mecca 5 times a day.

Western massmedia already called them "Russians living in US" like there is Russia behind this attacks. Brilliant masterpiece of mass mind manipulation. Oh God - we're doomed!!

But they are Russians living in the West?! What should they say?

Can't imagine that life in Prison or Guantanamo appeals to him, or anyone, so as morose as this is to think, he's probably gearing up for the 'Blaze of Glory', or for the cowards way out.

This is so weird watching all this! Very glad we live so far removed from this...

Must be nice.

THe security at the Sochi Olympics is going to be insane.

But the uncle said they're from Kyrgyzstan. I'm not following the Checnya connection?

I hate this BS. You do know 47% of people in Boston are non-white? Bostonians aren't the ignorant racists as your ignorant posts suggest.

From what I'v read they are Chechens who were living in Krgrzstan as refugees before moving to the US.

Not trying to cut him slack. Just going by what everyone that knew him is saying.

They're just showing the MIT Police Officer that was killed last night, on Sky.

He looks very young too..

Photo's of the dead brother here, boxing and his thought on living in America. Also one of his girlfriend.. poor girl!
Quote: Tamerlan says he doesn't drink or smoke anymore: "God said no alcohol." A muslim, he says: "There are no values anymore," and worries that "people can't control themselves."

Seems people certainly CAN'T control themselves anymore, yourself included Tamerlan. :mad:

Their only connection with Russia is that they speak Russian.

If they're ethnic Chechens, I'd imagine they're about as anti-Russian as you can get. While it's technically correct, it's over-simplifying to the point of being misleading.

Boston itself is a small city. Relatively large metro area though.

If you included Metro Boston, the figure would be much higher.

Lots of US cities are actually quite small, but if you take in the larger metropolitan area they've massive. San Francisco is the same.

southsiderosie · 19-04-2013 03:33PM

If you can't get the police feed and loathe the cable news anchors, you can listen to WBUR online - it is the local public radio station.

JazzyJ · 19-04-2013 03:34PM

LOL. The police have a truck bringing them lunch. :pac:
