Liberal professor Ruth OBrien from The City University of New York thinks we may have been a little too tough on the Boston Marathon Bomber who was killed by the police. OBrien, whos the author of the forthcoming book, Out of Many, One: Obama and the Third American Political Tradition, chided the Boston police for using too much force when they killed, Tamerlan Tsarnaev. Sure, he may have killed a lot of people and their lives may have been at risk apprehending him, but they should have been a little kinder and gentler, darn it (Maybe his brother, who ran over him in a car escaping a shootout with police, should have given up instead of making him into a speed bump).
Now we have captured the two terrorists from Chechnya who come from the troubled region that is Muslim, but we cannot understand their motives, not yet. And Obama encourages us to refrain.Yeah, instead of calling for justice, we should be calling for inclusivity .or something.
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.
Boston has great resonance for terrorists. Selecting the Boston Marathon has great impact and it is going to be felt among the upper middle class: healthy, white, high-income earners who are non-smokers and non-drinkers (though maybe pancake-and-syrup eaters) those who attend the Boston Marathon or watch it.
I do hope we all watch the cleanup or the damage control and hear the words Obama uttered we should be careful not just to bracket the motives of these terrorists but also make sure to remember that we are an immigrant nation.
The United States that I love hunts down terrorists AND follows human rights during capture.
We accept difference, as a nation, and we should champion our greatest strength inclusivity at these extreme moments if we want the character of the United States not to be judged harshly by the global community.
What is wrong with this woman?
Yes, its wrong.
Mugged? How about getting her legs blown off?
I’m sorry this terrorist act happened. But if it had to occur, at least it was in Boston.

Get a rope and some friggin razor wire already.....
The utterly astounding depths of this woman’s imbecility rival anything pronounced by Obama throughout the past four years.
That face could make a 75mph, four-locomotive, 125 freight car train take a dirt road!
Ruth said we must wait for Obama to tell us how to behave in this situation. Oh and make sure you buy her books about how evil America is. *rolls eyes*
Not too much force on the perps, but definitely too much force on the public. These bastards are turning the country into a f-ing police state and some of the Lefties might be awaking up.
Gee, maybe if citizens in Boston were allowed to be armed, it wouldn’t have required so much force, eh, professor?
I think the area of major operations was something like a 20 square block area - something like that.

This “professor” is seriously disturbed and self-loathing. Her only saving grace is probably that she is tenured which means she can make retarded comments to her heart’s desire. She is intellectually incompetent.
Actually there was an article on FR earlier where an eye witness said the brother was run over with a Police SUV. Doesn’t matter to me one way or another, just as long as the murderous SOB is dead.
“Is it wrong for me to almost hope the professor gets mugged?”
It’s too bad she wasn’t standing next to the murdered 8 year old and his sister at the finish line.
Pretty obvious, isn't it? Liberals are mentally ill.
So... liberals are all about empowering the State...
and then they complain about “too much force”?
