Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

  • Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!



    Go here and give us your nominations!
    Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
I've been wondering this ever since the Marathon...why don't police forces use encrypted radios when shit like this is going down? Like you can't buy a scanner at Walmart and listen to the Secret Service - why don't police forces have similar equipment? Surely the big city forces like Boston would have the resources, at least.
Don't even need a scanner anymore. Got an app on my phone which streams police / fire / ems / whatever is available from around the country from people uploading it. Listening to the Boston one now.

Yeah the live Boston chatter link is finicky as fuck I think, either that or Im missing something. Took me like 10 mins to get it back once I closed it by accident.

Nearly 80,000 users tuned in at the moment. Been pretty solid for me though.

Has to be related. Shit exploding, automatic weapons and who the fuck else would be stupid enough to stir up some shit there after the marathon.

The idea that it's not related is so frustrating to even consider

Last I heard on the stream or whatever is that the second guy is holed up in a house. Shit's about to get real as fuck at that house, I'd imagine.
They think he is, but they aren't really sure.

I'm really surprised that they went up with a news helicopter instead of a police helicopter with an infra-red camera to track the guy if he runs.

unconfirmed: the 2nd "suspect" who they stripped naked was released and sent home.

Time to get Mayhem there from Allstate.
I'm a terrorist in your house, as you sleep and your kids faps away to red tube.
Does your home insurance protect you from 50 pissed off swat/FBI guys?
If you got cut rate insurance you could be paying this yourself, so get Allstate and be better protected from Mayhem like me.

FBI and Homeland are leading this and everyone is there, from ATF, bomb squads, a couple swat teams, and at least a half dozen different local police forces. If this isn't connected to the marathon bombing whatever fucked up criminal element this is picked the worst time and place to commit a crime.
