OK help me out, who is this old guy, why did he have a suicide vest, and did the 2 robots stop him?

I'm so extreme I'm like Al-Qaeda and the X Games COMBINED.

Just like Newton shootings where internet detectives got the wrong shooter.

Uncle is a fucking US patriot. Got pumped listening to him. Sounds like if he knew what was going on ahead of time, he'd have killed them himself.
Indeed.
Loving all the reaction of the posters though: "Holy shit", "Craziest shit ever", etc...Please.

This is the most ridiculous game of Password ever.
Well no shit, but it still seems incredible for one 19 year old with everything they are rolling out.
That uncle is awesome. Hopefully the media respects his wishes and leaves them alone. He clearly doesn't know anything about the kids. Almost teared up when he talked about how much he loved the country, because I was thinking about what must have driven his nephews to this madness. Obviously he feels horrible about it.
They just said officers on 30 Adams Street needed to find cover. Is that where the old man is at?
I was just about to say... probably need some more cops.
He seems like a great guy. I always feel sorry for the family in most cases like this, they get hurt too. Especially when you have no idea how your blood turned out so bad.

My Member!
Thank you sir.
Around what time EST was this all confirmed to be the bombers? I went to bed when the MIT officer was dead and they were chasing these guys.
None of these things happened. There was no suicide vest.

They used bombs they manufactured. That is already against the law. What you describe isn't even the situation present currently.
And given the histories of the accused, what exactly would have popped up on the check? They are good for determining if someone that had previously committed a major crime should be sold a gun. That wasn't the case here.

unlike astroturfs post, this one is a little harder to decipher. not sure if serious.

No one wants a throne you've been sitting on!
Should be nothing different than the holidays really. So it would be odd.
Potentially they are trying to cause a "media blackout" so to speak. In the event if the suspect is getting info on his own or from another source via mobile communication.
So while things are slow, anyone feel like verifying this calculation I made which totally doesn't matter any more? The result just seemed crazy to me:

It's crazy that the perpetrators of that shooting in MIT turned out to also be the same Boston bombing suspects.
And then all the stuff afterwards...
I want to know why they did what they did. That 2nd suspect better be captured alive. I would imagine that he would confess to his family.

Indeed.
I'm eager for some new info but it seems like everyone is just standing around.
At any rate, what evidence do we have that a proper background check would or might have kept them from getting the guns?
They just showed them on tv but blurred out the name and avi.

Suuuper late quote (didnt see your comment) but I meant I am aware he's Chechen, but the local news I was watching kept generalizing saying they are Russian. Also, links dont work :/

Every time, man. Every time. People don't learn, no matter how many times this shit goes down.
They did have an old guy being inspected by robots though. What happened with that?

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.
