RT @nprnews: Third man has been arrested. He's being called an accomplice, not yet called a suspect

What?

Maybe a family member or friend who had any interaction with them in the last week? Could even be someone who drove them around Boston or to one of the hot spots.

RT @nprnews: Third man has been arrested. He's being called an accomplice, not yet called a suspect

What?

I wouldn't be surprised if this is true. All this craziness is hard for only two people to pull of without any outside help.

 

[Catchpenny]

I'll bet you can see Putin's shit-eating grin from Alaska today.

 

[malfcn]

When did they figure out who he is? When I went half asleep there was speculation it was the missing student. Now they have positively identified them?

 

[Impeccable]

The guy is smiling.

He's fucking smiling.

Confirmed... people can smile!

 

[ginger ninja]

whats the story with the naked man

 

[Riggs]

I need some sleep. Ive been up for 24 hours now.

All good dude at least you know what's going on, I just woke up to hear all this shit.

I just now got the joke on MTHanded's name. For some reason I always read it as M Thanded. Jeez, I'm an idiot.

I say it both ways half the time lol. Pretty sure its pronounced empty handed though, rather clever.

 

[Coldsnap]

A nap is in order today, after all of this.

 

[MThanded]

whole mess/shutdown is actually a great argument in support of less tough gun laws..thanks a lot jackass

What?

 

[Ferrio]

I'll bet you can see Putin's shit-eating grin from Alaska today.

It's dark out currently.

 

[MrKayle]

looks like the same sunglasses from the bombing.

Maybe.

what? one set of glasses is circular. the other is like a ray-ban shape, not circular at all.

 

[Erico]

Only ~20% of the global Muslim population are Middle Eastern. Like how ~20% of Catholics are Africans. Except, the former gets more press.

So... to answer your question, anyone who has more education than a 5-6th grader would think that

Anyone with more than a 5-6th grade education would have known these guys were actually Chechens?

Well shit, buddy, you'd think at least one of these educated individuals would have told the cops.

 

[tajd]

hes wearing a bomb right be funny if he got snagged on a tree and blew himself up

Reading that stuff just blows my mind.

 

[Gustav]

whats the story with the naked man

Innocent bystander was asked to strip down by police because of fear of explosives.

 

[ZanzibarBreeze]

If they have arrested a third man, at least they got someone alive. Maybe they can get some information about what's going on here.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

I just woke up to find out the second guy is still at large, there was a controlled detonation of a pipe bomb somewhere, and the MBTA is totally closed? I guess I won't be going into work today...

 

[Evlar]

When did they figure out who he is? When I went half asleep there was speculation it was the missing student. Now they have positively identified them?

Seems to be a leak from the police; not surprising since they got one suspect's corpse.

 

[Mr. F]

Been following since the car jacking, but I think I need to call it a night. Hope this wraps up soon with no further injuries.

Stay safe Boston-GAF.

They played video games: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9onSgQUdV-s

Goddamnit I love Driver San Francisco... nice drifting- FUCK HIM.

 

[I'm new be nice]

What?

less tough gun laws dude

 

[Cloudy]

whole mess/shutdown is actually a great argument in support of less tough gun laws..thanks a lot jackass

why? they had guns and killed a cop this morning

 

[jchap]

the US didnt sanction the messed up shit the Russians did in Chechnya the last 20 years. thats why I dont get this dude. why bomb the country that gave you refuge from the inmates running the asylum over in Chechnya,

They bombed a bunch of pedestrians. There is no reason to try and give rationale to why they did it. Anyone who would do such a thing is insane.

 

[MThanded]

The guy was posting on youtube in the last few days. He clearly did not think they were going to be found.

[benjipwns]

When did they figure out who he is? When I went half asleep there was speculation it was the missing student. Now they have positively identified them?

There were suggestions that they knew beforehand but hadn't narrowed it down enough.

I imagine the suspects rampaging across Boston made it a top priority.

The missing student stuff was the internet mostly.

 

[Cartman86]

What do you think average citizens should be walking around with guns trying to find him?

Or maybe have a gun in your home? Well okay you can still do that with any regulation that has been brought up in government.

 

[Razorskin]

Don't go to work. This is a fucking once in a lifetime situation.

Pretty much, I would hope.

 

[Psychoward]

Holy shit I go to bed nd this happens.

 

[NawidA]

Boston NBC is down for me, any links to a uStream or something of it?

 

[East Lake]

The future Bigelow movie is going to suck compared to this level of entertainment.

 

[FlutterPuffs]

Fucking extremist shitbags, I'm so fucking tired of these assholes destroying everything. They turn the middle-east into a shithole and now they're making sure that everyone in the west who isn't white has to suffer because of them. I hope they rot in hell.

Chechen is in (near) Russia.

Pretty sure Russia is considered 'West' too.

 

[tajd]

The guy was posting on facebook in the last few days. He clearly did not think they were going to be found.

and whats is this ?

 

[F!ReW!Re]

Body of the slain police officer being driven away by medical examiner vehicle

 

[JohnTinker]

So this is Dzhokhar's youtube account: http://www.youtube.com/user/abubakringush

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Really? That's what you're worried about right now?

 

[The Last Emperor]

just realized....his first name is pronounced "Joker"

 

[MThanded]

and whats is this ?

That is his youtube account.

 

[Ctrl A1t Elite]

and whats is this ?

It's suspect #1's supposed Youtube channel.

 

[deejay8595]

I just woke up. MTHanded, how in the hell are you still up? What's the update on this situation?

 

[Burbank_]

It should be noted that american right-wing idealogy has essentially been exported to Russia via David Duke. It's not that far of a stretch for someone impressionable over there to want to do something like this.

They get shafted, brutally, for decades and nobody does nothing to help them. In fact, the most powerful country in the world, self proclaimed champion of freedom and democracy allies itself with the very country that has commited atrioucious war crimes against them for as long as they can remember (and still is). Chechnyans probably have little sympathy for the west.
(which might explain, but never excuse these horrible things)

 

[Window]

LOL well done, I wonder how many will get this.

I feel embarrassed to admit it but that's the first thing I thought of when they said the suspects may be Chechen. Really though this entire thing has been very confusing with lots of misinformation and jumping the gun. That image with the supposed uncle a few pages back was just ridiculous. Though somewhat understandable in a time like this, people do need to show more restraint and patience. In the end though, I hope the loose suspect is caught soon and brought to justice.

white truck with russian lettering

 

[Slime]

White truck with Russian lettering?

 

[Mindwipe]

RT @nprnews: Third man has been arrested. He's being called an accomplice, not yet called a suspect

What?

Could be someone they don't think knew about the explosions, but was helping them hide from the police if they just said they were "in trouble" maybe?

 

[tajd]

Body of the slain police officer being driven away by medical examiner vehicle

there so brave and they saluted him also brave r.i.p

 

[Jintor]

Someone called in a white truck with Russian lettering on the side. Huh.

 

[MThanded]

I just woke up. MTHanded, how in the hell are you still up? What's the update on this situation?

For those waking up here is the summary of what happened in Boston overnight. Attempted to rob 7-11, they killed an MIT police officer, hijacked a car, stole a police vehicle, threw explosives out of window during chase, got into firefights in neighborhood, one of them died from being shot to death by the cops and a bomb vest going off(suspect 1), and the other is hiding and there's supposedly bombs planted all over the place(suspect 2) .

 

[Nabs]

White truck with Russian lettering concerned a citizen on Cambridge St.

 

[Phonomezer]

Fucking extremist shitbags, I'm so fucking tired of these assholes destroying everything. They turn the middle-east into a shithole and now they're making sure that everyone in the west who isn't white has to suffer because of them. I hope they rot in hell.

Aren't the suspects from Chechnya?
