It's not only tweets, read the bloody link from the L.A. times you twit.

L.A. Times is written by Americans. Therefore they're dumb obviously according to you. Not really a trustworthy source based on your own logic!

 

[RoKKeR]

Jesus Christ, just woke up and trying to get a handle on this.

One of the suspects from the bombings is confirmed dead?

 

[Ludicrous Speed]

Ryl is fat and not very smart, confirmed

 

[besada]

You're angry at people for expressing their shock.

I think she's irritated by the number of people asking what's going on, rather than simply reading the thread, which will tell them what's going on.

 

[Vilix]

"The robot is on him now."

What source is this?

 

[MThanded]

The old guy is seemingly unrelated.

 

[dave is ok]

Video of robot

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

"Robot is on him now"

Still can't get over we're in a world we can hear/see all this as it happens.

Not seeing it on the newsfeed. Are they not showing it in case something goes wrong?

Is 'his website page' CNN talk for facebook? Because maybe someone should tell that 'facebook friend' doesn't really mean 'friend who would shelter you during a crazy manhunt.'

I guess they're referring to the vkontakte ("Russian Facebook") page. Who knows, as they're obviously pretty clueless.

Man, Kyrgyzstan is quite a ways away from Chechnya (49 hour drive). Kazakhstan is HUGE! Do we know if they were born to Chechens living in Kyrgyzstan or what exactly is causing them to be associated with both places?

I can't say for certain, but apparently they are ethnically Chechen and lived their early lives in Dagestan before moving to Kyrgyzstan.

I'd wondered similar. They are both ex soviet, Muslim, but otherwise.

I'm going to Kyrgyzstan in June. It is a beautiful place.

Blows my mind that this guy is still up and going. He must be running on pure adrenaline.

What's the issue with the LA times article now?

 

[User 100115]

Good thing Myspace isn't popular anymore. "HE MAY BE IN HIDING AT 'TOM'S' HOUSE"

'THIS JUST IN: It seems like this Tom guy is really, really well connected, he has hundreds of thousands of friends! This is a lot bigger than we thought!'

 

[GazzaScotland]

Second robot requested.

Agreed. :\ The idiot shouldn't be outside. I'd love to hear his reasoning other than not knowing what the fuck was going on.

 

[NateDrake]

Robot #2 is being sent in.

 

[Steelrain]

Ryl is fat and not very smart, confirmed

[Ryaaan14]

While things have slowed down, I had Fox News on Sirius in my car earlier and one of the reporters literally said this:

"One thing I'm sure will be discussed after all this is over, is how Watertown feels vulnerable in an event like this and wishes they had guns in their home"

I fucking wat'd so hard

 

[Chichikov]

Oh no, more robots and bears!

WTF is a bear?

I heard bearcat -

Something something, die hard joke.

[LyleLanley]

It's not only tweets, read the bloody link from the L.A. times you twit.

Uhh.... did you even read that link? It has to do with West, Texas where there is, I believe, a rather large Czech community.

 

[Magnus]

What are the references to robots about?

In class, unable to use live feeds and such.

Is this related to bomb-defusal?

 

[EdibleExplosives]

This keeps getting crazier.

Lmao.

This was the DA statement and press conference earlier, may be off since I just jotted it down, but is generally what I heard across those sources:

Quote:
-something at MIT (Building 32? led to shooting of MIT cop (died))
-carjacking in cambridge, kept hostage for 30 minutes
-robbery attempt at 7-11
-another carjacking at some point (?)
-car chase (?), grenades thrown out, explosives maybe of some sort
-shootout: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cqo1Ad6spkY
-suspect #1 (black cap) dead
-suspect #2 (white cap) still on the loose


Also note that the first suspect was run over as #2 tried to escape. According to news sources now.

Stray bullets from earlier firefight:

The bullet actually went through his chair.

What's the issue with the LA times article now?

Yeah I don't get it. I guess I'm just another ignorant American that he keeps talking about.
