So weird. My aunt and some cousins lived in Watertown and I would go every year as a child. I have walked every inch of that place over the years.

Great if they caught the guy, but I am not holding my breath. Too many conflicting stories flying around.
 
The way the police are acting it makes me think that there is more than just two suspects. Maybe some kind of group.
 
The suspect that was caught on MIT campus was NOT a bombing suspect according to FBI

Huh, they are Chechnyan? Chech? Chicken? Chechian?, and citizens of the US

Is that a policeman or one of our troops in Afghanistan?

In the long run, the militarization of our police may be scarier than the bombing was. I mean, what were these guys doing a week ago? What are they going to be doing after they've killed the bombers?

Bring on the drones while we're at it.
 
Wait, so is that Sunil guy not the suspect? A friend in Boston just posted that they're in lockdown and posted a pic of the tv and the names are Tamerlan Tsarnaev (dead) and his brother Dzhokhar.

That's what I've been seeing since 3AM PST too.

All of Boston is in lockdown. People told not to leave their homes. Stores told not to open. Mass transit shut down. Etc.

Every little volunteer fire department out in the woods in the Northwest received pieces of military equipment under Bush, and I assume Obama hasn't stopped it. It was at least a couple hundred billion dollars. There were a couple of articles but now it's taken for granted.

Police armories used to be for ammunition but now they're loaded with tanks and soon, drones.

HuffPost is no friend to Bush.

The George W. Bush administration actually began scaling down the Byrne and COPS programs in the early 2000s, part of a general strategy of leaving law enforcement to states and localities. But the Obama administration has since resurrected both programs. The Byrne program got a $2 billion surge in funding as part of the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, by far the largest budget in the program's 25-year history. Obama also gave the COPS program $1.55 billion that same year, a 250 percent increase over its 2008 budget, and again the largest budget in the program's history. Vice President Joe Biden had championed both programs during his time in the Senate.

The Pentagon's 1033 program has also exploded under Obama. In the program's monthly newsletter (Motto: "From Warfighter to Crimefighter"), its director announced in October 2011 that his office had given away a record $500 million in military gear in fiscal year 2011, which he noted, "passes the previous mark by several hundred million dollars." He added, "I believe we can exceed that in FY 12.”
 
So they catch him or not? I read and heard one is dead and the other is still out there. Then I hear there maybe multiple suspects on the loose. Does anyone have the right info?
 
Turns out there's a gang of 23. Putin knows about them. They work for him against Chechyans.
 
Never insult me again, fucker. I am serious as a heart attack.
 
Someone died, and you choose this moment to question my credibility and accuse me of levity? Get into the moment of history.

Simmer down son! Maybe you shouldn't be so sarcastic with most your bullshit responses on other threads. Maybe people would take you seriously next time.
 
Ask Putin why he sent them. He has admitted it. And I'm not speaking to you.
