obama looks rather uninspired.

 

[Tamanon]

Obama on his anti-Reddit crusade still!

I want a newspaper headline tomorrow calling these guys "failures" and "losers"

 

[thecouncil]

no. he didn't rob the 7-11.

they happened to be in the store at the same time as a robbery? what did ever happen at that 7-11? i lost that info in the shuffle.

Watch your mic!

 

[Shady859]

People calling for torture and rape in prison etc? The fuck? Hell spend the rest of his life in prison. And at 19 that will be a long fucking time so justice will be served.

He's only a kid for fucks sake.

YES, rape torture and slow painful death at the very least... You brutally kill and injure people with bombs. Then cold blooded assassinate that MIT guard and everything else they did running from cops and throwing explosives etc etc etc.

He is not a human being. He does not deserve to live in a cell and eventually die from a needle in his arm.

You guys are dumb. People have been a state of high anxiety for several days especially the past 24 hours. SWAT teams and army of FBI and police patrolling the streets for a violent killer. And they come out and just want to let loose. A cathartic experience. You want them to what? Sit down and evaluate/debate whether they should be chanting USA or not?

 

[Agent Ironside]

From the other page for those who missed it.

 

[RumblingRosco]

It was a shell, and he didnt rob it, it was robbed after they left, but they were discovered coincidentally as police were routinely scanning surveillance footage

Wait, so it was just pure coincidence that someone robbed the same gas station that the two brothers had bought some gas from only a bit earlier in the night?

Son of a bitch!

He is hating on CNN and the post too.

 

[jim-jam bongs]

Obama just told internet detectives to fuck off.

I really hate using this word, but what can you call this besides evil?

I'm sure they were brainwashed. Extremists brainwashed the older brother which brainwashed the younger brother.

 

[devious.one]

Apparently as the cops were leaving the area after they got him, they were met with tons of applause and cheering, and one of the cops got on the loudspeaker and was yelling "God Bless America". Sounds like such a surreal moment for Law Enforcement and Citizens of Boston.

 

[gcubed]

is micheal savage always a lunatic? I was flipping channels on the way home tonight, heard him talk for 2 minutes and facepalmed until i almost crashed

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Obama's speech...I wasn't ready for the feels.

Edit: there are people partying like Boston win the Super Bowl right now. Very surreal moment. Outlet after a week of stress. I'm about ti drink until I can't feel my face GAF.

 

[Joel Was Right]

Obama specifically addressing anti-Muslim rhetoric

 

[criesofthepast]

Still want to know why they didn't change their appearance whatsoever. Okay they stayed in Boston because they planned to do more attacks (I think this is a safe assumption based on them not escaping for 3 days + arsenal of arms), but why not at least take off your hoody in the last 24 hours?

And why not conceal your appearance at the marathon better? If they did so they could have gone on for god knows how long without being caught.

Just doesn't make sense.

Sigh

Watertown and the boat would be scorched earth and a bunch of random people in vehicles shot at.

Bingo.

Cool. Why don't you volunteer to be the first to rape him?

 

[grandjedi6]

Obama calling out the shitty media coverage and temptation of the internet to jump conclusions. Ha

 

[Ken Masters]

And Caucasian, literally

Doesnt seem weird to me though. Hell I aint even a citizen and I want to salute the stars & stripes.

They don't look even the slightest bit Caucasian to me

 

[MIMIC]

Probably browsing GAF all night.

 

[BlazingDarkness]

there was no robbery, it was reported incorrectly - there was only the carjacking (which was committed by them)

Still cannot believe how quick that was. Less than a week man

America is so awesome! (in some ways.)

 

[Charrettizard]

I'm pretty sure he didn't mean to run his brother over.

 

[Parakeetman]

This whole thing and the way people are reacting scare me so much. So much eye-for-an-eye mentality, bloodthirst, suspension of basic rights for everyone, mass hysteria by the American media, cheering for death, etc. It all seems very, very disturbing, as if some people go into this animalistic panic-mode.

I mean, everyday citizens are killed in gun-related violence, foreigners are detained for 11 years without trial, a country has been invaded resulting in the death of 4500 soldiers and hundreds of thousands Iraqis, Pakistanis are extrajudicially killed by unmanned American drones, etc.

I only wish American society would allocate as much attention and vigilance to these self-inflicted atrocities as much as they are doing with this tragedy.

This is not meant to be inflammatory, but act as a call for more humility, more consistency, more decency, and try not to be swept away by the alarmist messages that force people to give away their basic rights or forget the many deaths within and outside of the U.S. society.

To be blunt you seem to be in the same ilk as those politicians who used the Sandy Hook shooting to further their agendas.

You may say its not meant to be inflammatory, but take a step back and actually read your own post. Its anything but.

Dont use this incident as a stepping stone.

 

[Dorimukyasuto]

Obama just told internet detectives to fuck off.

Yes! Finally.

God, I hate reddit.

 

[Kinyou]

I really hate using this word, but what can you call this besides evil?

Maybe it was an accident? Or maybe he thought he was already dead

 

[Laughing Banana]

So who is dead in the thread title? Or is the one getting caught alive is the one that 'at large'?

good post. agreed 100%.

wild, but that's the case afaik

 

[Knoxcore]

'Social media' is just people. Random people. There are no expectations to mob mentality.

News agencies are supposed to have standards and guidelines because they're professionals with decades of experience with these types of situations.

You cannot compare the two.

Yes I can. Social media cannot claim that mass media is doing a crappy job at journalism and say social media has replaced it (look on Reddit, Twitter...people are saying this) when social media makes the same mistakes.

 

[everyday math]

He sounds exhausted.

 

[Parch]

This should be the summary of record for this thread.

It's missing the pink dildo

 

[thecouncil]

there was no robbery, it was reported incorrectly - there was only the carjacking (which was committed by them)

i see. thanks.

 

[PeakPointMatrix]

Whoa, where are the new pics coming from? Are there any more?

 

[vas_a_morir]

They don't look even the slightest bit Caucasian to me

You will be lectured on this. Prepare for it.

 

[TimeEffect]

I don't really care about his shitty reasons. I just want it to be perfectly clear that he did it so the majority of conspiracy bullshit can end here.

Wont happen:

1) No evidence of kid dropping the bomb
2) No evidence of them throwing bombs out of their car
3) They framed them, and they will:
a) force the kid into lying to the press
b) or he will actually be a reptilian on the government payroll

There will be no horrifying tragedy where conspiracies wont be created. Literally every single one is done by the government, because horrible acts like this can never happen the way it seems.

Talking about GAF posts only. I already apologized for it. Sorry for having a different opinion though I guess?

This went from stupid to just silly. "He is not a human being"....

 

[oc]

So who is dead in the thread title? Or is the one getting caught alive is the one that 'at large'?

First suspect, the older brother, was killed in a shootout last night. The younger brother, suspect #2, was just caught.

 

[Dorimukyasuto]

I'm pretty sure he didn't mean to run his brother over.

Wait. Was the brother dead before he ran over him? Somehow missed this.

 

[NukeLaser]

based Obama

 

[Onemic]

They better not have killed him. Seems his injuries are pretty serious

 

[dokish]

Suspect left a trail of blood on the tarp of the boat that a neighbor saw it and called the police. I think this female neighbor looked inside but I don't believe that... only that if he knew he was being spotted, he'd head out and hide somewhere else.

The guy who owned the boat saw blood on the outside of it so he took a peek inside of it and immediately contacted the police.

Thanks.

 

[Roddslayer]

Props to the President for mentioning West Texas.

 

[inm8num2]

Obama just told internet detectives to fuck off.

Good. They deserve to be told that.

Really was such a unique experience, especially after learning it was connected to the Marathon bombing.
