"Smoking Blunts" is not the same as saying "Yea me and dude bought a bag of kushy marijuana just last week"

I'm not Russian but there is this :

Pretty sure he is Muslim. His twitter has a post where he defends Islam. Well, more like dismisses people who associate Islam with terrorism as idiots. Not to mention he's from Chechnya.
1 + 1 = ?
Sure it's not confirmed, but it's at the very least highly possible. Even probable.

listen to the mad man
It took 3 or 4 months to catch McVeigh, and he was only arrested on a routine road stop for a license plate violation; he voluntarily admitted to having a gun on him which he was booked for, and it was only like a week later in jail that he was identified as the suspect for the Murrah building bombing.
So comparatively this has moved quite quickly.
Well CBS got it wrong then, not surprising with all that is going on.
Edit: Nope, they had it right...

Yeah, the actual act of using drugs isn't illegal. It's if you possess, deliver or distribute them. I guess you could make the case that they technically possessed marijuana, but a blunt would likely be simple possession. Besides, police have more important things to worry about. They tend to go after the guys that deal and distribute the pot, not the potheads that smoke it, unless he's got like a growing operation going in his house or something or he's sitting on a giant stash.
And as others have pointed out, police backed off after the initial shootout because of the explosives. It must have gave him a small window of time to get out of the area or hole up somewhere.

ah ok.
It probably was an armored car, not a tank...this is silly.

They are probably confusing armored vehicle with tank.
And yes there were armored vehicles on the scene with MG gunners.

Overkill.
Ah, that pesky Quran, always telling people they should kill Americans. Could you cite the verses please?
I now just picture Kevin Smith talking about smoking weed.
Dude has gotten annoying since he got into it. It's all he fucking talks about now on his podcast and Q&As.
Cops don't enact due process when the kill an armed dangerous suspect do they?

Chechnya vs Russia started out as a nationalistic battle and when that failed the Islamic fundamentalists took over when the secular battles failed. They used Islam as an excuse for independence and still do. Most chechans just want peace but not these fundamentalists, they want war to gain peace

Beat EviLore at pool.
Used the get a car cheat from GTA 3.
Why, exactly? As far as any of us know, their religious affiliation has nothing to do with the bombings. People like to leap to assumptions that often say more about them than the situation at hand.
So like every pothead ever?

Picture on twitter:
Makes me want to go home and play Call of Duty.
Actually it looks like they might have both been recovered. Really hard to tell what the hell is going on, at this point.

For the ones scared to watch the picture, it's not really that gory.
His face and body are red and bloody but it's all cleaned up.
Head and Face are intact and you can clearly see it's the same person.
One small bullet one, a medium Gaping hole on his left rib side (possible surgical)
It's still a person that died a violent sudden dead, so proceed at risk.
Some people just hate America and all that it represents. I'm sad that this great country receive them with open arms and they just cause harm and death to the locals.
One quick question, The suspect had a weird name, where is he from? I though he was Greek at first but I can't figure out the race of suspect though. He looks Israeli and the suspect one slightly Indian or Arab. But they seemed mixed enough that I can't tell for sure.
Edit: OH Russian.
Russia has been in a vicious war with islamic separatists in caucasus for years and russian intelligence have pinned chechnyan islamists for several terror events, plus russian army pretty much bombed Chechnya to stone age. Putin has been riding the 'hard man against the terrorists' theme with these guys for years, which helped him cement his power.

God bless America.

Same here. Looked nothing like the skinnier suspect.
Heard this on the radio myself. Think it was going to the area near the planned controlled detonation.

congrats
Do you mean to be replying to some related post in the chain, talking about admitting something or what possession is?
I was replying to Stump saying "'smoking blunts' is not a crime"; in some jurisdictions use (distinct from possession) is crime, typically one carrying a more severe punishment. It is of course rather difficult to prosecute on in many cases.
"Admitting" something obviously isn't possession or use or anything criminal or punishable to any extent. For that matter, it might shock some of you to learn that lying on national television isn't a criminal offense.

No, it wouldn't be. A foregone conviction of a dead guy who can't defend himself is not justice. And the end result would be him being sentenced to death. While it would be ideally preferable for him to have lived and had due process, nothing of real significance has been lost here.
