The FBI and Justice Department put-on a clever media dog and pony show last night to trumpet how the combined forces law enforcement successfully captured the Boston Marathon Bombers, but nothing could be farther from the truth. Within 24 hours of the bombing, Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev had escaped in plain sight by returning to their normal activities, even though the older brother Tamerlan had been a focus of FBI surveillance in 2011. The real crime-scene-investigative heroes were millions of members of the internet social media website Reddit, who virally leveraged their diverse skills as citizen-social-investigators.

It’s an amazing irony that soon after the martial law police lockdown was lifted, a CIVILIAN found the bomber in his backyard.
If Boston had not been locked down, the CIVILIAN would have found the bloody handprint on the tarp many hours earlier.
10,000 police can’t see what 7 million Bostonians can.
Just goes to show that after 9/11 there should have been multuiple firings at the FBI and CIA and promotions of those yelling about foreign nations taking fluight training but not landing training. And most certainly not the creation of several new agencies that have done nothing but spend money and obsficate the real issues....
Oh and after firing those morons at the FBI and CIA that ignored the people who where screaming below them those who ere fired should have also undergone “pension-ectomies” as well.
Homeland Security 0bama Failed In Boston
There, fixed it...
The people of the United States elect a person to be our President and supervise our Federal employees. Obama isn’t competent to run a sno cone stand.

Homeland Security 0bama Failed In Boston America.

[[It makes you wonder who Soetoro is talking about when he says he will continue to do whatever it takes to keep “our people” safe.]]
He IS tryign to keep his peopel safe- He wisked one of them back to Saudi Arabia, and the other is ‘in custody’ in a hospital gettign hte best of treatment so that he can live a goodl ong full life- AND he blamed the benghazi attacks ON AN AMERICAN!!! NOT on hte TERRORISTS!!!@
Yup- He’s protectign ‘his people’ alright
Which didn’t stop the mayors, Guv Patrick, and all of the various LEO chieftains from having a self congratulations orgy of a press conference, kissing each others fannies for the cameras. Without an older dude and his boat, and young folks on social media, the cops would have never found the guy.
Do we need more 100k+ per year employees in spiffy tacticool gear? Now I understand in conservative circles we have a good number of people who make a fetish out of uniforms, but do we have to break the finances of this country to satisfy the urges for a police state?
That is oh so very true. The same argument can indeed be applied to the 2nd Amendment. Not only does it ensure real power resides with the people, not the government, an armed populace of 100's of millions is harder for a foreign country to conquer than an army of a million.
That's why they have to shut down the competition.
DHS fails at everything except draining the supply of ammunition, wasting money, and subjugating law abiding American citizens.
Homeland Security is the ‘political witch hunt’ arms of liberal elite democrats. The people they see as ‘terrorists’ are Obama’s political opponents...

The only thing government consistently does well is look after its own interests.
In Massachusetts, Neo Europa, the demand for co existence trumps the need to find terrorists.
The overwhelming application of left wing ideology as a deterrent to common sense when evaluating immigrants eliminates the possibility of terrorism. There is no war on terror. Usam Bin Ladin is dead. Peace is achieved.
The whole state and practically all north and east of New York are delusional.
Bingo!
huge public nationally famous event - terrorists allowed at the finish line with huge backpacks.
The government let this happen then came in and “solved” the problem. And what’s worse, the sheeple stood there and applauded as they left. Unreal. Are people that stupid?
