To be fair, legitimate news sources can't even get it right, and that's their job. To ask a bunch of internet amateurs to do a better job? Never going to happen. And like this thread that moves a mile a minute, people will continue to want to do their own investigations and speculation. It's our nature.

I'd just ask a bunch of internet amateurs to accept that they're amateurs and shut the fuck up, personally.
 
Just regular dudes.

I don't think Reddit comes out of this looking great. 12 hours ago people were saying "OMG Reddit is the new FBI, world will never be the same" when the Brown U story they started was getting traction. In the cold light of day, how are they any better than CNN?
 
And a lot of gaf members who knew for sure that it was the exact same guy. In fact, they ridiculed anyone who didn't think they looked EXACTLY the same.

These blind people know who they are themselves and i sinceraly hope they don't ever post in threads that cover facial recognition again.
They can't help that they have bad racist eyes, but they now know that their eyes are not thrustworthy.

Honestly tired of this stupid fucking Neogaf trend of thinking everything on earth is racist. It's fucking pathetic. Grow up.

The two people looked almost exactly the same minus a mole. Combine that with the fact the POLICE WERE THE ONES WHO NAMED THE SUSPECT.

I have personally seen a lot of the people saying "it's not him" doing the same thing in other threads where they were 100 percent wrong.

I don't think many people on Neogaf said it was him, Sunil is guilty find him. Most people said they do in fact look very much the same, which they did.
 
Wow. WOW. So this is why everyone is confused and I am slowly getting pissed more and more. Geography, cotdamn.

really? REALLY? did you read the rest of my post about bearcats being animals and the dildo thing? i was being too subtle? really?

i apologize for the joke post though, i haven't eaten much and i'm tired. sorry guys. i was just trying to make fun of all the actual stupidity about people not being able to differentiate between Chechnya and the Czech Republic etc.

They're not. People rag on CNN for jumping the gun all the time, but hey Reddit/somepeopleongaf did the same shit. No one comes out swell from this.

I really feel for the Sunil family, to first lose their son and then to face this sort of internet bullshit.

Reddit isn't the press, they aren't journalists, and they never "started a story."
 
*wakes up, turns on news*

Hmmmm....so what happened to that Sunil theory?

I didn't think it was Sunil anyways since their noses look different he didn't really look like Dzhokhar with some of the facial features being different.

Went to bed on page 27 woke up to the thread being at 95+ just got through it all.

Expectations.

One is a bunch of random people, the other is supposed to be a national institution of journalism professionals covering the news.

No they weren't. It just bubbled up from the internet, it was never on the police scanner. No one heard it, there were like a hundred people listening to it on the thread last night.
 
Great, now people are going to be posting that fake facebook message for the next 10 pages.

hey guise, is this real? I found it on reddit.

It was the police on the scanners who said it was the missing brown student. Reddit posted it a few hours prior as a POSSIBLE suspect and were asking police to look into it.
