Boston Marathon bombing

[reply][reply]Not a whole lot of places you can go in a country where literally everyone hates you.

True. It’s really just a matter of time now. They’ll canvas the whole place and probably (I’m guessing) find him today. But he’s certainly going to get taken soon one way or another (i.e. dead or alive).

As to why he didn’t leave town . . . it seems he and his brother really thought they could get away with the bombing. They were hanging out, twittering, Facebooking, etc. and it was probably only when they saw their photos being tagged everywhere that they realized their little scheme maybe wasn’t pulled off as anonymously as they’d hoped.[/reply]

I think once they robbed a 7/11, hijacked a couple cars, shot and killed an MIT security officer, and shot and threw explosives at the police, is when they kind of blew whatever cover they thought they had.[/reply]

Haha yeah,not exactly keeping a low profile…

We do know of course that Boston cops like to “break balls something wicked” though. Let’s just hope they don’t have Joe Sly on this case

I think he’s on a big drug sting.
I thought about him when I saw this picture today.
I totally imagine him dressed up as a tree right, waiting to pounce on the next poor dumb hippie that grabs one of these joints.

Wow. Just watched an interview with their father who’s in Russia. He called the cops “cowards” for shooting his son. He apparently thinks his sons have been framed.

Kind of pissed me off. Just a little bit.

I can understand being shocked and even going through moments of denial finding out your kids are responsible for such horrific shit. But to be so certain they are in the right and then call the police cowards for gunning the motherfucker down. Really got under my skin.

I’m also getting sick of the news interviewing people who knew Dzhokhar and then acting surprised when they say how cool or nice he was.

Except for one mumbling idiot they’re interviewing right now who is upset that people are saying bad things about Dzhokhar and is apparently trying to set the record straight by repeatedly saying that he is a “nice guy”. No, dude, he’s not. He fucking killed people and ruined lives. The people there don’t “love him”. Eat a big bowl of dicks.

Grab all of them. If it is a setup explain to the officer(s) that you were taking them down as to prevent the public and possibly even children from getting their hands on the drugs. Say you were going to either toss them or contact the authorities about it. Boom. Either way you don’t really lose anything and have the possibility of getting free weed.

His uncle and his aunt are two very pissed off relatives. They all took refuge in the US and Canada to escape the violence in their country only to have their nephews committ exactly the same atrocity where their family took refuge. They have brought shame to their family and Islam.

You would smoke something taped to a pole? Not me. Who knows what’s in that shit!

Well, I’d examine it and ingest some of it first, of course. Just in case.

Their aunt, if it’s the same one I saw, was a complete cunt just like their father was. Denying the two had anything to do with the bombings, that they had been framed, that is was some conspiracy, and demanding evidence.

If the media were any way responsible they’d stay away from the father as he’s obviously a wreck and is going to say all sorts of stupid shit - it just fans the hatred and is completely unhelpful.

There’s probably millions of Americans who don’t know anything about Chechnya but now they see the father calling cops cowards and think “Chechens must hate us”

At least some of the other relatives are seeing it more straight.

This case doesn’t seem anti-American as such, rather it looks like alienation gone completely wrong. The older, already dead guy appears to have been quite mentally weak

The Canadian aunt was pretty pissed off.
Never saw/heard the interview with their dad in Russia.

All I know is . . .

UNCLE CHECHY RULES!!!

I get the same impression.

I don’t think many Americans are thinking that at all really. It’s pretty clear he’s in denial: http://www.politico.com/story/2013/04/boston-bombing-suspects-father-a-true-angel-90330.html?hp=f2
But I do think the media needs to let them be so they can process the situation and grieve.

As far as it not seeming anti-American I wouldn’t be surprised either way. I linked earlier to the now deceased older brother’s boxing photo gallery which had captions under it but that original source has now been taken down so this will have to do: http://imgur.com/a/7ndbd
“I don’t have a single American friend, I don’t understand them.”
• 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.”
• A native of Chechnya, Tamerlan says: “In Russia, we used to train like this. Here nobody does it, I don’t know why!”
• Tamerlan says he doesn’t usually take his shirt off so girls don’t get bad ideas: “I’m very religious.”

I’m not at all saying that this proves that there was some “anti-American” agenda or anything. But it does show someone who apparently couldn’t relate to Americans and was disappointed in society for not sharing his “values”.

I don’t see this as being a result of alienation since so many people have come forward stating they were friends with the younger brother. Talking about how he was a normal guy who had friends and went to parties. Same with the older brother.

The older brother is said to have been the brains behind it all. So, I wouldn’t call him mentally weak. An asshole, yes.

Never saw/heard the interview with their dad in Russia.

I don’t know if there was any video or audio of it released, but I read the selected quotes today where the dad was totally in denial and just praising the boys as “angels”.

Those captions could have very well been writte by someone else too. Cause it sounds lik they both had friends.

Difficult for Most Americans to understand theocracy.

If he didn’t like the culture/values/mores, he could have left for a place that shares his views.

Weird that he sought political asylum and then wrote that.

He would have been around 16 to 18 when he arrived in the US.
He was a boxing champion in 2010, but not a citizen (resident with green card); thus, he could not participate nationally in competition representing the US.

Maybe that pissed him off.

Am I the only one?

You’re right. It could have been. I doubt it but it’s certainly possible. Unfortunately the original source has been taken down. Only time will tell.

Anyway, this is supposedly Dzhokar Tsarnaev’s, the younger brother, twitter account: https://twitter.com/J_tsar

Seems more legit than that obvious fake ass one that was floating around earlier. If it is real (which most of the media claims it is) he’s a real prick and had no remorse at all for what he did.

No, it’s not. I think most rational people don’t understand why they should have to change the way they live because of someone’s religious beliefs.

If he wanted to live under a theocratic government he should’ve gone somewhere with a theocracy under whatever god he believed in. Instead of staying here and blowing people up.
