[NEWS] Explosions near Boston Marathon Finish Line (UPDATE: MIT/Watertown shootout w/ suspects)

He can't be that naive. The way he acted after the bombs went off indicated he wasn't surprised.

 

Uhh. He stuck around after the bombing to watch the carnage. Then tweeted about the bombing. Then went to a party three days after the bombing.

The guy sure showed no remorse in his actions after the bombings. He killed a cop, shot and bombed at many others and carjacked someone.

Tell me again how he was baited into it?


Just because he's young and portrayed himself as a normal kid does not mean the kid didn't have a sinister, pure evil side.

 

A stink bomb in a backpack? That is one heavy carried supply of stink bombs don't you think?

 

he may have tweeted about it and continued to live as he normally would have as to not raise any suspicion. He may have thought that they wouldn't get caught. Once they released the pictures he was screwed.

Remember, he didn't even wear sunglasses but the brother did. the brother knew it was a serious thing but he didn't. He's not dumb. He would have worn sunglasses to hide his eyes. That's the 1st thing you think of.

 

Yes, and I may have monkeys fly out of my ass tomorrow. I understand playing Devil's Advocate, but its pretty clear he knew what he was doing.

 

So the older one was killed by his brother running over him with a SUV and not by the police shooting him?

 

IF this was true (it is not), then he should of turned his brother in immediately. The fact that he didn't led to a cop to get executed. Remember he was in the car throwing bombs at the police in the car chase. He tried to run over police with a car during his escape (they dove out of the way and he hit his brother instead). This is a cop killing POS. Stop looking to make excuses for him.

That just makes him a cowardly terrorist. Still a terrorist.

Yes he is. Incredibly dumb. How illogical is it to think blowing up children will change the world for the better? He and his brother believed this and acted accordingly. Idiots.

 

Score 1 for the terrorists versus freedom.

 

Most likely died from the gunshot and shrapnel wounds from the explosion.

 

How the hell do you guys know he was the one who threw bombs and not his brother? Or that he was the one who shot the MIT cop. This is what I was saying about facts. People just assuming these things without solid evidence. All the news just say was that it was both, but you can't confirm that without being there or having video evidence.

 

Anyone else thinking that Clutch should change this poster's moniker to "NotTheRealist137" for accuracy?

 

Suspect is intubated. I wonder for how long

 

You don't have to pull the trigger to be guilty of murder. Being a part of it makes you just as guilty.

 

1. It's difficult to turn in a loved one. Not turning in his brother is not proof that he was in on the crime.
2. You don't know for a fact that he was the one who threw explosives, I can say that he did not throw any explosives, and have the same amount of proof behind my claim as you do with yours (I haven't followed the developments much so I might be wrong)
3. Your last point about him being dumb is circular, because it assumes that he was in on the crime, which is what we are discussing right now.

I'm not making excuses for him, I'm just playing devil's advocate. We are discussing whether there is a conceivable scenario in which this 19 year old was unaware of the seriousness of what he was doing (which is possible), therefore whether or not his actions AFTER the bomb was set off proves premeditation and not just a scared kid acting irrationally. IF they are going for the death penalty, this is an important discussion. Can he get the federal death penalty?

 

Eh...

1. He planted one of the bombs. He certainly would have known his backpack contained a bomb after it freaking exploded. Not going to the police right then makes him complicit in the crime.

2. He's on video at the convenience store where the car jacking took place and police say he tried to run them over with the stolen car, actually running over his own brother in the process. That's attempted murder of a police officer.

3. When police caught up with him at the boat there was a big gun battle which has also been caught in tape.

There's not a lot of gray area in there.

 

I have been thinking this for a long time. I can't remember any "realistic" post ever from this poster.

 

Agreed. I think he tries hard with his shtick. Being negative, pessimistic, and cynical all the time does not mean you're keeping things real. Either that or he finds the unpopular opinion and preaches it.

 

ok then he drove the car while his brother threw bombs at police. Did he pull over and try to stop the murdering of police? NO. He helped.

He was in on the crimes. He did try to murder police. You are wondering to what extent.

Why do you keep bringing up his age? 59 or 19, it makes no difference. Hes an adult and responsible for his actions.

 

Notice how these conspiracy nuts read the 8 min tweet, but fail to look at all the tweets that initially mention the attack before it.
