Boston Marathon Terror Attack - Part 1

[Victarion]

Don't we have drones? Ya know..to have eyes in the sky on him?

That might upset more people than the sweeps they're doing. I don't see the problem with having a force to roll out when this stuff happens, but martial law is a terrible idea.

Really would have thought they'd have a couple helping the search.

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

Yeah...it's crazy to see how surreal this is. Watching this unfold on the news, and how the Boston PD is running around with weapons out, going door to door and such...it's just crazy to see this happen in real life.

Yeah, we've seen **** like this on TV, in books, comics, movies. But, man...I can't get over how surreal it is to see this happening.

Drones, yeah.

But, not domestically. All the drones we have are used overseas. Atleast, as far as I know...

I suspect they may see if he leads them somewhere. As action movie as it is, waiting to see if there's a bigger fish may not be a bad idea.

I feel like the brother was the bigger fish though. I mean, he may have other connections, and maybe this kid had been in on this for a long time, but I can't help but feel a lot was the older brother influencing him.

This is the kid's twitter page, the one on the run...He tweets alot

He really does seem like a "normal" teenage in today's world.

If you have the knowledge and the inspiration all that's left is to take action

 

[Maximus One]

I seen some pics of his tweets on Facebook. Think it's actually him though??

I don't know. Usually, there seems to be some signs of the weirdness or crazy that's bubbled up to the surface. It's the strangest thing about this, too. Usually, once people start digging all of the "signs" adds up. Being antisocial, unfriendly, or acting erratic, or weird propaganda, or manifestos online or...stuff that seems like in the cold light of day seems to add up to the actions. Not that they explain it, but there's signs.

So far, I haven't read or heard of any from the things they've dug up. Really weird.

 

[SpideyVille]

Not really. Most people have said that they would never expect it from him because he was very active and well known by people. Usually, in cases like the Sandy Hook stuff, there's some level of isolation and maybe even mental illness. In those cases, its usually something that makes the person snap, but in this case, as of now, its hard to say why he would do this, unless he was into this for a while or if his brother really messed with his mind or something.

 

[Brain Damage]

This infuriates me.

Yeah, that's what I mean. At least in the brother's case, they have some kind of signs and evidence that can prove that he was involved. But not this kid.

Even now, I look at the TV and see his picture next to "Manhunt" and I can't help but think how odd this whole thing is. He's not the first young person to go out and kill people, but in most cases, the kid never gets away because he either kills himself or gets killed in the process.

Shouldn't they be able to track through his twitter or the computer's ip address.

That only works when the person is stupid enough to keep using the same hardware.

They can't get the individual IPs and set up a blockade around the general area?

 

[JaD]

This infuriates me.

Real life troll if I've ever seen one.

By the way, I really hope they release the video of these suspects dropping the bags once this is all over, just to put to rest families protests of this all being staged. I also hope he gets taken in alive for some answers as well.

I'm sure he has ditched his old phone.

 

[TheDreamMaster]

I guess he isn't updating from a phone then. I figure they could track that.

 

[SpideyVille]

What the heck!? I was just watching news coverage on Fox, which was airing the Boston affiliate, but they just switched to regular programming in the middle of it. I don't want to see the People's Court.

What a cocky SOB. I hope he doesn't get the luxury of a quick bullet to the head. I hope he has to sit through trial and sentencing.

 

[Maximus One]

Man those tweets are just disturbing

 

[The Apocalypse]

Anyone keeping up with this on Reddit too? Are those updates legit?

I doubt they will. They never showed the Osama video despite people wanting to see it. Plus,, somehow these guys managed to get through in the midst of a high police presence at the race, so I don't think they want to show other copycats how to outsmart the police.
