Am I alone in feeling like the military like lockdown of this city just feels like a bit much?

If this was 24 and a guy was running around with a briefcase nuke, I'd totally get it, but this is one punk with maybe a gun, and maybe a grenade or two. I know that's a serious threat, but I'm just not sure what to make of so many "troops" rolling through the streets of an American City.

Na, Lamonster is with you :p
 
Not too sure...

Shouldn't they be doing decoys on this open air?

I mean, kinda weird that if a terrorist attack did happen, we have open radios.

And what's this about him being a truther? Lol.
 
Wouldn't surprise me if he is the one that indoctrinated them. You have to wonder why the two fuckers didn't talk to their uncles, who so far have presented themselves as exemplary American and world citizens.

Indeed. It's night and day between the two family interviews.

yes and no. I mean, they wouldn't have done this without what happened last night, so its a manhunt. A freaking huge manhunt, but tossing explosives at police, and if the rumor of them having more of the bombs last night, you don't want to pull people off the trail and have another explosion killing people in a few days

It's certainly setting a precedent.
Does he have do blow up another 8 year old until it's justified?

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.

Relax! Any shitizen seen outside their home in one of these high tension areas is probably being told to get on the ground and surrounded by dozens of LEOs.
