Now we have another presser going to happen soooon! All we will hear is ... “stay indoors! This investigation is still ongoing.”
Now that we know where they lived has anyone checked to c if they’re registered to vote. ;-)
TY 4 posts trying to follow on cell
“mechanic is foreigner ..can’t tell the accent.”
He had a cresent/star tatoo on his neck
I think this is an important fact. A lot of the bombers in England were doctors. People who had gone through all that education and appeared to be part of normal society. It is important to realize when it comes to radical Islam you can never go by outward appearances. They have no problem lying to infidels either by action or word.
Yes, the average American has learned zilch about Islamists over the past 12 years. This woman’s comments just confirmed it.
I don’t think I agree with your police work there norm.
On his Twitter feed on election day last year he tweeted that his net worth just went way up.
A: All the personnel.
They have killed one terrorist/murderer. You think you could have done better? Go sign up to be a cop!
Kinda makes me want to drop an M-80 just to spook the guys a little.
UPDATE 12:57 p.m. ET — Former FBI agent Clint Van Zandt tells MSNBC that the decision by police to hold controlled demolitions in Cambridge could indicate a space might be booby-trapped or it could just be precautionary. It could also be done so officers can gain access to other areas.
UPDATE 12:47 p.m. ET — NBC News reports additional details about the carjacking and shootout ended with the death of one of the suspected bombers. They reportedly told the driver of the Mercedes SUV they were behind the marathon bombings, then tried to use his cash card to withdraw money from three ATMs. The suspects ultimately released the driver unharmed at a Cambridge gas station:
As they sped toward Watertown, a police chase ensued and the suspects tossed explosive devices out the window, officials said.
There was a long exchange of gunfire, according to Andrew Kitzenberg of Watertown, who took photos of the clash from his window and spread them on social media.
“They were also utilizing bombs, which sounded and looked like grenades, while engaging in the gunfight,” he told NBC News in an interview. “They also had what looked like a pressure-cooker bomb.
“I saw them light this bomb. They threw it towards the officers,” he said. “There was smoke that covered our entire street.” [...]
Kitzenberg said he saw the firefight end when Tamerlan Tsarnaev ran toward the officers and ultimately fell to the ground…[he] had an improvised explosive device strapped to his chest, law enforcement officials said.
Dzhokhar…drove the SUV through a line of police officers at the end of the street, Kitzenberg said.
LOL
You are correct. Chances are we would be saying the same thing had he been our neighbor. It’s real easy to judge when you are on the outside. And I actually have a little personal experience in this matter: a neighbor who was Iranian and ran a small business. He was perfectly normal but the hours and company he kept got mine (26 year AF ) and my jarhead neighbors spidy senses going. Needless to say he ended up on the FBI watch list.
If he had lived in the area for any length of time he knows where to hide. There are places in every neighborhood that can conceal a lot of things. There was a storm drainage pipe in the neighborhood I grew up in. Jump the fence, enter the pipe (which was about 5 ft in diameter). I could be across town in no time. It wasn’t a nice trip, snakes, rats and spiders but if you were running from the cops after racking someone’s house at Halloween it was the way to go. This guy could be walking around Philadelphia right now.
Those are all DEA around the house with the ladder.
I agree, these guys are terrorizing the City a heck of a lot more then the guys who set the bombs off.
