    It's simply a description of the suspect, and fits the profile of the person they were looking for. Police on Monday were searching for a 'dark-skinned or black male' wearing a dark-colored hooded sweatshirt.

    agreed....and remember...cameras, the internet...it is such a huge part of our culture...twitter, instagram, reddit...each one of these sites have spread information round the world at a rapid pace...and hopefully we can catch the perp/s...

    and really its not just the government...its ordinary citizens that are working together using pictures, images data...

    Btw...the guy in the blue coat...is very suspiciouso...we shall see...apparently the government has a solid lead now in the case...

    "what you gonna do when they come for you..."

    exactly my point. pictures can tell you very little unless it's obvious. just because someone has the same color bag doesnt mean he was the bomber. just because someone was carrying a backpack, doesnt mean he wasnt wearing it 10 seconds before/after the picture was taken. a picture can only tell you whats happening at that very moment

    Are there no pictures of where the second bomb went off? I don't think i've seen any. Everything is about the first bomb.

    What about the other (s) that didnt go off? Not enough pictures/video?

    As far as I can tell, the only source for this so far is CNN. Everyone else seems to be repeating what John King said. His info could be solid and from the lead investigator or it could be made up and from celebrity-seeking deputy.

    In all fairness, Sirota was hoping for a white perp because if the guy is white we will dismiss it as a screwed-up loner or a group of losers. If it's not a white guy, the tendency will be to blame others that look similar. Here's what he wrote:

    Hard to argue against that unless you want to intentionally misrepresent what he said to further the things he's against.
