City University of New York Professor Ruth O'Brien complains in an op-ed that "too much force" had been used against Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who was killed by the police. -snip- This said, the mortuary pictures of the older brother of the two are extremely disturbing, raising questions as to whether the Boston Police Department captured him with too much force. I understand the explanation offered by Katharine Q. Seelye, William H. Rashbaum, and Michael Cooper. Yet, it does not ring true. A picture is worth a thousand words that will keep our ears ringing as we recoil from this photo. Images have a way of searing themselves into our memory in a way that can’t be undone. We have an emotional memory, not just a rational one that is exemplified by words. While terrorism is about causing fear — again an emotion — we do have to account for our conduct in these extreme times when adrenaline is running high. At my home, to at least offset this, we turn off all media. I couldn’t believe my sons’ explanation when they got home about one brother running over the other one. So I found a place to read about this, and I recoiled after seeing the picture. Still, we all know that terrorism, like crime, “leads if it bleeds” with the established media. The established media fixates on the domestic-violence or crime-of-passion aspect of terrorism, and it, too, inculcates more fear in all of us.

” Get rid of tenure”
Get rid of tenure(d)radicals.
Yep. .
I believe that she should have gone out and captured the suspects herself. I’m sure she would have been gentle and loving and they shot at her and threw bombs at her.
I’m sure she would have a different opinion if the attack was on one of her beloved university or government buildings.
I read somewhere that the younger brother, driving a carjacked SUV, tried to run down the police with while they were handcuffing the older one. The police managed to get out of the way, but the older brother was run over and dragged for some distance. If true, that may account for a few bumps and bruises.
These people are put out there to intentionally provoke the beatings they so deserve. Thus giving the msm a target to point to and claim ‘right wing violence’
PURE provocation.
Love the attempt of the forty something hag trying to look 18. A few dead and maimed innocents is a small price to pay for a liberal getting a tolerance high.
Pray for America to Wake Up
That’s a good point. Plus the vivid purplish staining [face & neck] was liver mortis. The police had nothing to do w it.
He was killed when his brother Joker ran over him.
She’s a hyper lib and Obama worshipper. From her website:
Professor & Author of forthcoming Out of Many, One: Obama & the 3rd American Political Tradition.
Reporting on this silly woman is like listening to the guy wearing an overcoat in the middle of July and pushing a shopping cart down the sidewalk.
That is why our cities look like sewers full of arrogant criminals.
********
Exactly. She should move to Detroit for a few years.
Gee professor, do you think he used too much explosives in the crowd of innocent people?
Fuk off and die Ruth.
I happen to agree with him. One sniper, one bullet and it’s over in minutes.
Way too much theatrics and 48/7 for the media. The terrorists won’t ever stop but at least the rest of the people could go on about their day and it would cost a whole lot less.
It is not Islam nor the street gangs that are our enemy. Our enemy is the politicians that support them. The media that promotes them. The Liberals that befriend them. They are our true enemy.
We need to use more force to lower tuition by exorcizing certain leftest profs from the faculty.
Wasn’t the report that Tami was being handcuffed when his bro ran him over to get away?
It has also been reported that, as police closed in he may have attempted to commit suicide. That attempt failed but left him with a severe throat wound that required him to be “intubated and sedated” and left him in a critical condition at a Boston hospital.
