No, I just don't spam internet crap. Think and use a little common sense.

Why don't you start spewing that this is still a government conspiracy? Like Jeff Bauman that you fucking had to dishonor, I'm just a friggin government plant. The fact that you haven't gone away, shows how much of an asshat you are.

Instead, assholes like you only hurt innocent people. And don't even learn from your retardation but continue it.

Yeah, keep name-calling and giving me crap everytime I post...that REALLY makes me believe anything you have to say.

How did I hurt anyone? I don't plant bombs, hurt anyone, or even own a gun; yet somehow I am this big evil because I have different opinion than you? You are everything that is wrong with this country right now as it is being run by a bunch a on the rag, bleeding hearts that immediately pile up on, and behave disgustingly towards, anyone who doesn't agree with you.

Quite frankly, you need to take a long hard look in the mirror my friend and ask yourself if that is really the kind of country you want to grow up in, because it is not what this country was founded on.

Oh and guess what, the FACT that these were rich Chechnyan kids actually supports the government false flag theory. Sorry to burst your bubble.

But why are you so angry?

'quoting people for idiocy', making personal attacks, why?

Because he has the righteous indignation that comes from having nothing to do with any of this. What, whaaa?

What the hell? At least direct your anger properly.

The 2 suspects WERE speculated correctly well before FBI released/confirmed at 5:20PM yesterday. And it wasn't spamming everyone, they guessed 3 and 2 were right (1 wrong being that 17 yr normal kid).

I haven't been following the news after 10pm last night. Again, why are you mad at people trying to help when asked?

Public info comes with both good and bad.

????? You mean when the FBI released the photos? NO one on the internet had any photos or ID'd these guys beforehand, so stop lying.

Again, are you a retard. No one on the internet has helped. Instead you and others have been pegging innocence people.

It's personal b/c I was there and a friend was hurt. And when Prodigy, you and others continue to post lies. It needs to stop.

This is dailymail, but the article claims people on the net ran with the info after yesterday's FBI photos and got more info. I don't know if it helped or not:

No, they WERE guessed correctly prior to FBI. I saw them first on internet (3PM~)- only to see them confirmed/matched by the FBI press conference at 5:20PM yesterday (first released suspect pics).

Let go of your tantrum. You aren't the only one affected and it doesn't put you on a pedestal. I grew up in Boston, lived in Cambridge, and my friend grew up with Krystle (Medford High).

You're what's wrong with this country. Real people were killed and hurt and you fucking have the balls to say that Jeff Bauman wasn't really hurt and that he had already lost his legs in Afghanistan. FU You're the problem and instead of stopping, you don't.

I can't believe I'm even replying to idiots like you and Zeze. Instead of deleting those pics and apologizing. Nope, you continue with your fud.

No, they weren't. But keep on lying to yourself. Please provide a link here or on another forum that shows their pics prior to the FBI. You can't.

Were they? I thought they fingered that missing kid, or the creepy guy, or a bunch of others.

I don't remember anyone mentioning Russians until the FBI released that info.

Captain Cavemen & Welshbloke, you are right. I went to my history and found the pictures- the white cap was indeed a wrong guy along with the other.

I admit it when I'm wrong. I guess it's unfortunate that they weren't as helpful as could be.

No worries.

There was a lot of information flying round, it was pretty much impossible to keep on top of everything.

Everything supports your "false flag theory". If they were poor? I can see it now. "The US paid these guys with the promise of riches to blow up crap"

No problem. But that's what got me so riled up. After the FBI released the photos, nobody had identified these guys yet the internet had believed it had already solved the crime. We've had innocent people attacked due to the color of their skin and the NYPost almost causing harm to those two kids that they posted on their front page. It's just been sickening seeing how the internet and media have been acting.

How is this in the middle? According to his Russian social media profile, he is a fan of Islam.

I was defining extremes as right wing militia vs foriegn AQ. Not dead center but some people were so sure they know before evidence was in.

I'm not aware of the people attacked due to vigilante justice.

NYPost has been nothing short of a piling steam of crap since the bombing, even the 'internet' has been saying how shitty they are.

As for topic on hand, where was the last time this guy escaped? And how? The news aren't being specific on this.

So the kid has nowhere to go, no public transportation, can't drive. He's literally just hiding under a bridge somewhere. I don't see him making it past noon today.

Thats because you're a gullible idiot.

I was quite prepared to politely listen to your reasons but as your reason seems to be "OMG conspiracy theory!!111 Must be true!" i'm going with gullible idiot.

Definitively no Arabs. A lot of people swallowing crow this morning...especially people in the comment sections of multiple news websites.

I believe there have been a few other attacks, also.

Some thoughts:

1. Why the FVCK did they try to rob 711 after the bombing? That is the most stupidest thing you can do.

Supposedly this was after a they killed a police officer.
Could've been improvisation, considering that their cover was blown, and they were trying to stock up for a chase/escape/firefight.

As for the running around - terrorism always needs a message. This was lacking so far. Maybe this is the way they're trying to send it.

I'm somewhat disappointed by these guys though. Traditionally Chechen freedom fighters are way more rad (Moscow Opera, Beslan school), so I'm wondering whether these guys were connected to that movement, or were just Islamists recruited out of Chechnya.
