Boston: One dead, one captured, city re-opened

Hmm. Strange to think that the blood those people donated to the Red Cross after the attack might go towards saving this guy so he can stand trial.
 
Shall we not have a new thread or title update?

Also,what was being said on CNN?

I think the officer said the older brother may have had ties to Al Qaeda? Is that what they are going off of?

Now that the guy is captured and until he talks there's going to be all kinds of rumors about their connections, hell there already has been. I wouldn't trust anything that comes out for a while.
 
Whoever represents him will become instantly famous (or more famous) and so it will be quite a competition for his legal services.
 
News over here said something about suspected accomplices in custody. Any word on that, or complete bullshit?

I heard/read the same thing. Apparently his girlfriend and a couple other friends were taken into custody. Not sure the truthfulness of it but at this point I'm treating it as 100% false after all of the bullshit being thrown around.
 
Have you guys learned nothing from this ordeal?


DON'T TRUST WHAT CNN REPORTS, THEY'RE A BUNCH OF BULLSHIT ARTISTS.
 
Good.
Now they can interrogate. It's pretty important to find out if anybody else is involved.
It'll probably be all be about blaming the brother, but considering the horrible things he's done, I expect him to be a real smartass prick with no remorse.
 
Thank goodness it's over.

A few weeks ago I had a pretty intense scare. I was watching a movie in the middle of the night when a bunch of cop cars went by, and then I noticed a cop helicopter circling around the area for like a half hour. I hopped on Twitter and searched for activity in my area, and found that a college around the corner from me was on lockdown, and cops were tracking a bunch of guys. Apparently they knocked on the door of a house behind me, held the residents at gunpoint, tied them up, and robbed them. The sirens and helicopters went on for most of the night, and I was pretty much scared shitless until morning, convinced every noise I heard was one of them creeping around my backyard or trying to get into my house.

I can only imagine how the people of Watertown must have felt with a fucking terrorist potentially hiding out in their backyard. I probably would have had a heart attack. The people in the crowds look so relieved.

Amazing how thoroughly the cops searched. What an amazing operation. Glad they got him alive.

No one will learn anything. As soon as this happens again CNN and mainstream news will be shit and people will run witch hunts against innocent fucking people.

One thing I learned from gaf being down earlier is that twitter is full of conspiracy nuts, unfunny wannabe comedians, and a lot of bullshit made-up information.

And by twitter I mean the Internet.
 
#BREAKING: Boston Marathon suspect has gunshot wound in the neck, and a gunshot wound to the leg. Serious cond. -- CBS News @BuzzFeedAndrew

Is this true?

No loss if he dies. No cops or civilians were hurt when he was taken down, thats the important thing.
 
Glad they got him, and quite frankly I couldn't care less if he lives or dies. Just happy that everyone in that area can continue on with their own fucking lives.
 
Now that the guy is captured and until he talks there's going to be all kinds of rumors about their connections, hell there already has been. I wouldn't trust anything that comes out for a while.

I wonder how he will defend himself, should he live. Blame his brother? Take responsibility? Spill the beans on further connections?

Sounds like he's not going to make it anyway

Interesting that the FBI apparently talked to the older brother 2 years ago? In regards to Al Qaeda connections? Apparently Russia had informed the U.S. about him, did anyone catch that coming from one of the officials on site?

Is his girlfriend the one from the picture posted earlier with the large tracts of land?
