Can't believe they haven't found white hat guy yet. He must be holed up with some family or something hostage. No way he slips past that much police presence.
yeah well rushing into a situation with a bomber, that might have set up a hideout is generally a bad idea. they are taking their time.

Really? I've heard they have paramilitary training
I'm hearing college kids, well educated, good grades played in sports (captain of wrestling team) lots of friends, liked to joke around, seemed to have little to no interest in politics, sometimes even inspiring and and good leader like attitude.

Wow, just spent the last two hours catching up what's going on in Boston with this thread after a self imposed media blackout all week. Good stuff man, good stuff. Araysar getting maximum rustled by people calling Chechnyans Russian is my favorite part right now. And are there any youtube clips of the uncle? Had my cable shut off a long time ago.
Uncle said the smartest thing ever: Their motive was "being losers".

People fucked up this thread good!

Do us all a favor and take the political shitfest to another thread. Use this for updates for the situation only. Some people don't have access to anything else and the last thing they want is to filter through your cunt swabbing.

"U.S. law-enforcement officials said the two brothers came to the U.S. at different times?one with his parents in 2002 and the other on his own in 2004. Intelligence and counterterrorism officials have been scouring records to look for intersections with the two men, officials said. Records indicate one or both of the bombing suspects had spent time in the Caucasus region since they first immigrated to the U.S. and then returned to the U.S., officials said.

The brothers' father lives in the republic of Dagestan"

"Over in the North Caucausus, meanwhile, the Kremlin is carrying out a brutal and rolling counter-insurgency campaign. Its focus is Dagestan, the neighbouring state to Chechnya, and now a hotbed of violent jihadist rebellion. Three weeks ago, Umarov ['self-proclaimed Emir of the Russian North Caucasus'] appealed to Chechen fighters abroad to come home to take part in the fight"

Im curious to learn their motivations if this is their cause. Why attack US targets?

Is there martial law in Boston atm, I've heard reports of curfew and people being ordered to stay at home just curious. I also don't have cable, like most people with a computer and an internet connection below the age 35 I have realized cable tv is pointless.

No curfew. Just a suggestion for people to stay inside and safe and they're all following that suggestion very well.
