Possible it was taken.

I remember that night listening to scanner and police were reporting handguns and long guns on perps.i still think there was a whole nest of Islamist terrorists and the gov. does not want to admit it...on orders from the top down.

What is happening to our country? So many lies!!

I listen to the scanner online for most of the event. They were very clear” don’t shoot we are firing tracer rounds” I wasn’t sure if they were rubber. They spent 20 mins getting cops to move from behind the other houses in the line of fire. Then when they were all ready to assault the command post said “wait FBI HRT is going to take over” a voice said “Too late “ and another voice said “hold &HRT will handle assault “ then all the scanners went dead.

This is how we lose our freedom, arguing over ever changing lies and propaganda.

So how’d he shoot himself in the throat?

He took one of the bullets (that came through the side of the boat) in his hand and repeatedly jammed it into his larynx until he destroyed it.

The Tsarnaev’s arsenal :

....included homemade grenades, a bomb, and at least four guns, ...including two handguns and a BB gun which they used in the Watertown street fight, ....plus an M-4 carbine rifle.......described by the Times as an M-4 carbine rifle ....”similar to ones used by American forces in Afghanistan,”..... was reportedly “FOUND ON THE BOAT” in the Watertown driveway where Dzhokhar was captured. ....It is unclear whether the rifle is a semi-automatic civilian model or the selective-fire model used by the military.

Tsarnaevs allegedly killed an MIT police officer to obtain another handgun. They failed because they couldn't remove the handgun from the slain officer's locking holster. “There was apparently an attempt to yank it and they couldn't get it and left,” reported CBS News

According to the Washington Post, authorities are attempting to trace one of the Tsarnaevs’ handguns, whose serial number was removed. If technicians are able to determine the serial number, they plan to hand it over to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives in West Virginia”

Not to be overlooked....there was reason to suspect the guy could be “wired” with a bomb....and why the robot was used to lift the boat hood. Thus live bullits shot by officers were at a minimum.

Looks like the liberal media has their marching orders from the WH....create questions regarding perps guilt...get libtards feeling sorry for them...put on CAIR and Muslim’s to cry racism in every paper and every channel.

Very bizarre propaganda roll out. So on one side will be liberals who are on the side of the terrorists and the other side people who on the side of America, truth,justice and are exposing Obama’s deep ties to Islamists all over the government.

Good luck with that Axelrod......lol!!!

So who framed Roger Rabbit?

What about the “grenades” and other bombs? Have they found where the runned-over brother made the rice-pot bombs?

Are there videos of previous Boston Marathons and the crowds that stand around at the finish line? I’m curious to know whether or not Saudis are big on marathon viewing and participation.

A fact to remember...the police thought possible the guy was wired with explosives....another reason they withheld firing live bullits.

Under the circumstances they handled this well IMO...remember they also used a robot to remove the cover on the boat.

These guys were throwing handheld bombs at the police in the chase...he could have certainly had onw in that boat as well.

Actually, he was on his way home from working at a homeless shelter for Jewish orphans when he heard a kitten cry. He lifted the tarp on the boat just as a band of fat, white, male Tea Partiers wearing “Bush 2004” buttons came by and shot both him and the kitten with AR-15s. The kitten died, the kid fell, wounded, into the boat, trying to cover the kitten with his own body, and cutting his throat on the peace symbol necklace he wore.

You are 100% correct, it’s stunning to watch and witness this.

Hey, look over there! No, look over there! Classic misdirection and toss enough cra* in the mix and there you have it. Sickening that the media is criminal in aiding this dangerous game.

Thank you so much, just got back and of course in that short time there is yet ‘another’ new version/story being sent out!

I thought the first version was that BOTH the guys were shooting at the officers. And, didn’t they say the night this was happening that they were shooting to get him to use his ammo? And yes, I guess that story of him shooting himself is completely false, or is it?

Liars, each and everyone of them, just liars along with very lazy reporters. We are entering a dangerous chapter here, imho.

Pathetic!!

Future News Story:

And in the end..there were only the original 18% far leftists supporting the disgraced President Obama as he was being lead away in handcuffs. CODE PINK, CAIR, and an odd assortment of washed up hollywood has beens were on scene, attempting to form a human shield around the White House, but they were quickly ‘dispatched’ by the US military....lol!!

The owner of the boat calmly walked away from it after he discovered the bleeding terrorist and informed the police.

If the terrorist had still been a threat, he would have killed the boat owner.
There is something odd to the whole story.

Yes...we can laugh to ease the tension..but we are entering a very dangerous chapter in our country’s history. I smell a constitutional crisis coming if even half of what we are suspecting is true.
