    Meanwhile, they have 4 robots 'working' on the guy with the 'device' in his pocket.

    Poor guy probably only went out for smokes.

    Maybe I shouldn't have called him an idot, the poor man is going through hell id imagine but by saying that he has made a threat to the city of Boston....not very wise in this climate.

    Hear that cops voice? He must be Irish born.. Weird accent.
    They are entering another house now.

    Aren't they going from house to house? So I'd imagine they'll be entering a lot of houses.

    Thats one angry man allright.


    "They are both losers"

    You're right. They're lovely boys.

    Feel sorry for the uncle first thing I thought when I heard they were Chechens was crazy nutters from Russia, I am sure their whole community is embarrassed by the whole situation.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,565 ✭✭✭southsiderosie


    He's clearly upset and embarrassed, but it's kind of refreshing to see someone just come out and tell it as it is. The journalists are dumbasses.

    I have yet to meet a Russian or someone from the former Soviet states who wasn't brutally frank. The uncle's "what kind of idiots are you?" face in response to some of the media questions was priceless.

    The uncle just called both of them losers...Im only quoting what he said.;)

    Incredibly passionate stuff from the uncle.

    I always feel very, very sorry for the families of the aggressors in cases like these. At least the the families of the victims get to grieve in a very public, open way, if they so chose. They also have massive out pourings of sympathy & support coming their way. The families of the aggressors never get any of that, yet they have lost a son/brother/nephew too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,110 ✭✭✭RikkFlair


    Feel sorry that the uncle is related to these swine...he's seriously putting some of those reporters in their place


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,047 ✭✭✭Da Shins Kelly


    Uncle Ruslan is now the top trending topic on Twitter. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,147 ✭✭✭Morrisseeee


    When will the people who are locked into their houses get out for food, maybe in 2 to 3 days time ??!!
    I could call around with my Fish-n-Chip van :pac:


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 15,857 ✭✭✭✭paddy147


    Wonder if the uncle and his family would need police protection now...in view of others possibly wanting to seek their revenge.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 557 ✭✭✭yew_tree


    His father said he has two sisters living in New York - NYPD would want to get those into hiding!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,510 ✭✭✭Hazys


    Family of MIT cop Sean Collier "Our only solace is that Sean died bravely doing what he committed his life to, serving and protecting others

    Hopefully, they are married and using their husband's name.

    The father doesn't seem very 'clued in' to the severity of what is going on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,269 ✭✭✭GalwayGuy2


    Hope there isn't copycats after this. :S This is more coverage than any school shooting.

    EDIT: Saw a short video with Uncle Ruslan. I think he's being brilliant in this situation.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    CNN reporting that they may have hidden many more pipe bombs around the city.

    The most stupid question a reporter asked was "where they attending training camps" The uncle should have spat in her face.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,381 ✭✭✭✭Allyall


    I hope he's captured alive so he can explain how he keeps getting away from all the Police when the City is on lockdown.

    An young MIT cop, probably never saw a real crime in his life. Fair fcuks to him for jumping in and stoping an armed robbery such a brave bastard.

    RIP

    Did he, or did the brothers approach him while he was in his car?

    I'd say he's just wholed up in a drain somewhere and hasn't moved

    Anyone who plants a bomb with nails inside it next to children is as close to "monster" as I'd care to know. Trial or no trial, holding doors for teachers in high school or not.

    I don't disagree with your first sentence. I'm just asking has any concrete proof been put forward that he was involved with the bombing. Does video show him arriving with a backpack, dropping it and then walking away? Where does the proof come from?

    Well he's not acting like an innocent man.

    AFAIK yes it does. He has a backpack, he leaves it behind the kid who was blown up and walks away. His brother leaves his backpack on the ground where the other explosion was.

    They said the did it hijacking the car during the robbery.

    They threw explosives out of the car.

    It would seem to be them, but obviously a fair trial is needed if caught alive.


    EDIT: that's from random media reports, these things always change and contort over time.
