[Rubato Garcia]

I have no idea what he said immediately after

 

[Turfaholic]

Booker T forgot where he was for a second

 

[(Nope)]

How many of the people in Boston cheering to catch this guy are also supporters of the IRA?

I bet that would make an interesting revelation.

Also, now that I think about it, why wasn't the IRA's name brought up initially when discussing who the possible perpetrators were?

If any, very few...

Sully, why the hyperbole, you're smarter than that?

I just think it'd be interesting to see what the opinions of Bostonians would be when asked whether they support the IRA or not, considering the IRA has used similar tactics in the UK.

Of course, comparison would be based on the conjecture that these two brothers are motivated by the atrocities and continued suppression of Chechen independence by Russia.

And I dont' think i'm being hyperbolous in wondering what the contrast in support would be for IRA groups fighting for independence from the UK versus support for Chechen groups who use similar tactics for independence from Russia.

It's pretty well-known that a lot of the support State-side for the IRA was concentrated in the Boston area, due to the larger population of Irish-Americans.

I'm not supporting these Boston bombings. Not by any means. I just think the opinions of people who also happen to support the IRA would be an interesting psychological study on cognitive dissonance and ethnic/racial/national bias when it comes to terrorism.

Understood, appreciate the explanation.

- As the world hunted him, the younger brother suspected in the Boston Marathon bombings acted like any other college sophomore.

Dzhokar Tsarnaev, 19, was on the campus of University of Massachusetts-Dartmouth every day after the attack until late Thursday, a university official told CNN. Tsarnaev attended classes and dorm parties while the rest of Boston came to a tense standstill.

A student at the school told The Boston Globe that she saw Tsarnaev at a party Wednesday night that was attended by some of his friends from intramural soccer.

"He was just relaxed," she said, asking the paper not to print her name.

The days-long drama that gripped Boston -- and the world -- began when two homemade bombs made from pressure cookers exploded 12 seconds apart near the finish line of Monday's Boston Marathon. Three people were killed, and more than 170 injured as nails, ball bearings, BBs and shards of broken glass were blasted through the viewing area.

Law enforcement officials combed through photos and surveillance videos, searching for clues to who detonated the bombs. The FBI released photos showing two men they were seeking and asked for the public's help.

At the dorm where Tsarnaev lived, students joked Thursday as they viewed the FBI photos on television, a senior who lived in the suspect's dorm told The Boston Globe.

"We made a joke like, that could be Dzhokar," said Pamala Rolon. "But then we thought it just couldn't be him. Dzhokar? Never."

A tense scene began to unfold Thursday night -- complete with wailing sirens, flashes of blue and red lights, a hail of bullets and explosions from homemade bombs. By early Friday morning, Tsarnaev's older brother, Tamerlan, 26, was dead. Dzhokar Tsarnaev was bleeding as he stole away into the night.

On campus nobody was joking. The school posted a message on its website: "UMass Dartmouth has learned that a person being sought in connection with the Boston Marathon bombing has been identified as a student registered at UMass Dartmouth. The campus is closed. Individuals on campus should shelter in place unless instructed otherwise."

The manhunt for Dzhokar Tsarnaev lasted all day Friday and left Boston streets deserted as police asked everyone to stay indoors. Then after the request was lifted, authorities got a tip: A Watertown man told police someone was hiding in his boat in the backyard, bleeding. It was their suspect, Watertown police Chief Edward Deveau said.

Officers spotted Tsarnaev poking through the tarp covering the boat, and a shootout erupted, Deveau said. Police used "flash-bangs," devices meant to stun people with a loud noise, and negotiated with Tsarnaev for about half an hour.

Chief describes how manhunt ended

"We used a robot to pull the tarp off the boat," David Procopio of the Massachusetts State Police said. "We were also watching him with a thermal imaging camera in our helicopter. He was weakened by blood loss -- injured last night, most likely."

A thermal image photograph, released Saturday by the state police, showed what authorities say was Tsarnaev lying in the middle of the boat.

Police had no idea whether he had weapons or explosives with him, so they repeatedly told him to stand up and lift his shirt to show he wasn't wearing a device, Deveau said.

Eventually Tsarnaev stood up and lifted his shirt for the officers.

"Once we saw that, we felt comfortable enough to send some officer tactical equipment to grab him and pull him away from the boat," Deveau said. He was taken by ambulance to a hospital.

Police are confident there are no other suspects, Deveau said.

"These two acted together and alone," he said. "As far as this little cell and this little group, I think we got our guys."

On Saturday, Dzhokar Tsarnaev was in a Boston hospital being treated for his injuries as federal and state authorities decided what charges he might face in the marathon bombings.

[the older brother] Tamerlan Tsarnaev was thrown out of the mosque -- the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center -- about three months ago, after he stood up and shouted at the imam during a Friday prayer service, they said. The imam had held up slain civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. as an example of a man to emulate, recalled one worshiper who would give his name only as Muhammad.

Enraged, Tamerlan stood up and began shouting, Muhammad said.

“You cannot mention this guy because he’s not a Muslim!” Muhammad recalled Tamerlan shouting, shocking others in attendance.

“He’s crazy to me,” Muhammad said. “He had an anger inside.… I can’t explain what was in his mind.”



Tamerlan was then kicked out of the prayer service for his outburst, Muhammad recalled. “You can’t do that,” Muhammad said of shouting at the imam.

wtf this nigga was nuts

lil brother was weak-minded and followed the Alpha Male's lead

same dynamic w/ Columbine: Dylan Klebold was a depressed lonely kid, Eric Harris was the psychopathic sadist who invented the massacre plot

 

[obnoxiouslyfresh]

They out here taking donations to buy this man a new boat

 

[jono]

I think it was pretty obvious from the coverage that Tam was the problem. Everybody interviewed was surprised #2 was even involved, he was just a normal kid who followed behind big bro and he lead him into a fuckin mess.

That's sad low key...

Boston gave a ridiculous amount of money to the IRA during the 'troubles' out here where it was Irish v. british.

Most of that money went on guns and bomb materials... Hell there's a case where a priest helped the IRA blow up a village.

I'm not complaining though, I'm full Irish blood and my father is a leading commander in the IRA.

What is your rank amongst the IRA?

 

[T. Sanford]

They should give the younger brother probation & house arrest

LoL. They want blood, if you know what I mean.
