Concerned citizen reports white truck with Russian lettering on it. Yes, the terrorists have their logo on the trucks, concerned citizen.
 
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) .

Basically, this.

News just said one suspect ran over the other one. Any truth to that?

Problem is: most people still think all Muslims look like Osama with long beards, wearing "dresses", etc..

something,something, ignorant...


The public education system in America and the UK is appalling, students aren't taught basic world knowledge nor history. But firing incompetent administrators and teachers 'harms the children'. Poorly funded school systems also contributes.

/Needed money and LoR, had to grade papers for professors. I have no idea how some of the students got in.


This isn't detectives work. It's a shameful witch hunt done by self indulgent screen jockeys that have no professional ethics and no idea about the damage that they can actually create just because they want to play Sherlock Holmes or CSI Miami.

But they work for 'karma' so it's okay.

Everyone in Boston please stay safe. Stay inside and read GAF/ Play videogames.

Wut

That is fucking insane
 
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.


POSSIBLE SOPRANOS SPOILERS, if anyone gives a fuck.

Tony learns from Valery's boss and best friend, Slava, that, although he has developed substance abuse problems since, Valery was previously in the Russian Ministry of the Interior's special forces and once killed 16 Chechen rebels single-handed. However, the poor phone signal between Tony and Paulie results in a mix-up: Paulie passes the message on that Valery killed 16 Czechoslovaks and he's an interior decorator, to which Christopher replies, "His house looked like shit." As the night draws nearer, the lost, shivering pair become more desperate to find their way to food and warmth.

I am laughing so hard at Christophers line.

These guys had rifles and bombs. What are you gonna do with your little pistol?

agreed, you can probably take down a military trained dude a whole national guard and FBI are having difficulty with while ensuring he doesn't murder your whole family.... right?

GTA VI plot confirm?
 
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,

Chechnyan terrorists groups have close ties with Al Qaeda. They share motivations and targets. These guys though could be operating by themselves though. I hope this is clarified somehow after all this ends.
 
Well, now this makes even less sense. Perhaps their actions aren't connected to Chechnya and they're just disgruntled nutjobs working on their own. There doesn't seem to be any point to bombing the US as a response to the Chechnyan conflict.

You guys don't seem to realize that Chechens go beyond just the Chechnya-Russia issue. There are Chechens who have joined Islamic fundamentalist groups like Al Qaeda / Taliban and fought against the US and allies in places like Afghanistan. Prior to that there were even Chechen fighters involved in the conflicts in the former Yugoslavia.

And this was initially unrelated to the Boston bombing, right? It was only after a while that these guys were ID'ed and "holy shit, its the bombers!", right?

And here is a video of the shootout:

Just watching CNN and the woman on there made a good point, despite the damage done alot of this reeks of small time thuggery over organised sponsored terrorism, the fact they are still in Boston so many days after tells us they clearly didnt have a plan, or at least a good plan to leave the country or even leave the state. Im not sure whether this is a comforting notion or not, that small timers can cause such damage and terror, but are just anomalies. At least this comforts that there is no more carnage to come, or greater terrorist threat looming.
 
Alright, I need to sleep a few hours and study for midterm. Hopefully there's no more casualties.

Stay safe Boston-GAF.

Are these guys talking about their plans later that night?
 
CNN is giving a lot of info on them right now (probably old), about going to kazakhstan and stuff; some quotes from older brothers website
 
Woke up, ready to do some last minute cramming for my final. See that school closed.

So the only new thing that's happened is the suspects have been ID'd by name and they are Chechyen.

White hat still not found?
