I agree.

This family, from what has been reported, was admitted to this country AFTER 9/11.

Listening to this on police scanner it is a 60 year old man with deadman switch

[Starstruck]

Right! FOX said the Dunkin Donuts had employees there even though businesses were told not to open. The manager saw all those LEO’s and determined his retirement was assured.

scanner chatter about perimeter, maintain perimeter.

Sounds like EOD(explosive ordnance disposal) unit has shown up.. and officers are getting back to perimeter.

[Old Sarge]

OUCH, that will leave a mark!

[Sequoyah101]

We can hope but I doubt the wishes will come true.

It is “impossible” to be registered to vote without being a US Citizen... ha. What a flippin’ joke we are.

I wish this whole mess would blow up in o’stoner’s face.

Wow! But has Dzhokar slipped the dragnet?

MSLSD still wondering how to classify this: foreign or domestic terrorism.

Dudes, don’t take the brown acid!

5.55 (10.55) Couple of bits that may have got lost in the shuffle here. Anzor Tsarnaev earlier urged his son Dzhokhar to turn himself in: Quote Give up. Give up. You have a bright future ahead of you. Come home to Russia. He warned however if he is killed, "all hell would break loose."

14.50 (09.50) Larry Aaronson, a teacher at Ringe and Latin school, says not only did he know Dzhokhar, but he took photographs of him on the wrestling team. He writes on Facebook: Quote I cannot believe he was capable of such a heinous crime and of so many murders. Truth be told he came from the war zone deep inside Chechnya like about 5 or 6 years ago... with his entire family... When I was quoting that the war has come home yesterday to everyone, I did not mean it like this!!!! As the old hebrew expression goes. You got to be f****** kidding me... (BUT THEY ARE NOT)

15.49 (10.49) A photograph of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev wrestling has been posted on Twitter.

16.04 (11.04) Dzhokhar Tsarnaev at his graduation from Cambridge Rindge and Latin High School

15.04 (10.04) The identity and photograph of the MIT police officer has been released. He is Sean Collier, 26, of Somerville.

14.47 (09.47) Ruslan Tsarni, the brothers' uncle, said that he received a call from Tamerlan last night having not spoken to him for a couple of years, in which he asked for forgiveness.

scanner EOD robot

They are going to use the robot to try to remove the guys jacket.

Of course we wonder if we will ever find out what this means.

Intrigue only begat intrigue but I wonder if this is really just the edge of a terrorist cell that has gone rogue or made a passion inspired mistake by launching the bombing?

My wish is that it is and that it blows the whole immigration reform and amnesty mess all to hell.

he deleted the comments against women being allowed to teach him.
This definitely shows a Muslim mindset.

In Europe they say that the only aspect of Islam that the resident Muslims care about is oppression of women. They will drink, skip prayers, etc, etc, but the "laws" regarding women they insist upon.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

How do you do that with a dead man switch?

Prayers for police.

[TornadoAlley3]

switch in hand of guy on ground

[TornadoAlley3]

If not on swat team get away.

[Old Sarge]

Excellent rollup of the facts, SC. Thank you!
