The Saudi Arabian man who is reportedly in police custody following the Boston Marathon bombing was chased and tackled by bystanders shortly after the blast, according to CBS.

You can’t tackle a Muslim because you think he set off 3 bombs. What were these people thinking? Muslims are protected here in the USA.

If he did have something to do with it, then let’s hang him.

I don’t recall anyone ever taking credit for 9/11.

This would be debunked had no so many witnesses been present. Give the tackler a medal. He risked his life big time, not knowing if the bomber would off himself with another bomb.

Not many people were running with severe, explosion-induced burns.

20 years from now there’ll probably be a shrine to the noble Muslim who started the Arab Spring in AmeriKKKa.

True. I wonder how far away a cell phone detonated bomber has to be from the bomb? This guy could be innocent, but we’ll wait and see.

You’re right, but don’t forget, we fingered them very quickly.

So, did Eric Holder’s DOJ charge the tackler with a hate crime?

Don’t forget the perp was also a charter tea party member,
hunting rifle owner, a man caused climate change denier, and
a home schooling, Bible- believing dad.

The leftie host in the bay area had some other Chief leftie Peace-nik think-tank thinker on a couple hours ago....though not explicitly laying it on a conservative, the Chief leftie thought it was a loner. Then mentioned Ok. City, not Ted Kraczynski, or course.

No mention of the Saudi suspect even though Mark Levin's station had it 10 minutes ago.

I’m sure the ACLU will file a lawsuit against the tackler at some point.

Brigham and women’s hospital is in lockdown with a swat team guarding all exits. There is a suspect who is a patient under guard

Yeah the whole Muslim world was cheering 9/11 and Bin Laden was very pleased, but no one “officially” took credit for it.

The nightly news will infer it as a right wing Tea Party extremist.

Ted Kraczynski (aka “The Unabomber”) was further left than Bill Ayers.
