What are they doing putting these parents on TV when one of their kids is dead and the other is being hunted?

their uncle was asking the very greatly hunted teen to turn his self into the authorities

"Here’s local news interviewing a mechanic who said he worked recently on Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s car. When Tsarnaev dropped it off for repairs two weeks ago, his behavior was normal. When he came by Tuesday, a day after the bombing, to pick it up: “Very, very nervous.” Tsarnaev also wanted his car back immediately, even though the mechanic hadn’t replaced the bumper and tail lights yet. Maybe that’s why the brothers hung around Boston — they wanted to leave town but couldn’t drive the car in that condition without getting pulled over. So they lied low for a few days to figure out what to do, then panicked yesterday after the photos were released and carjacked someone to try to get away.

The best tick-tock I’ve seen of exactly what happened last night is this one from WBZ. Allegedly, the brothers stole two cars, a Honda and a Mercedes; eventually they both ended up in the latter car and the cops caught up to them. Eventually they lost control of the car and crashed it. That’s when the gunfight started and that’s when Tamerlan Tsarnaev was shot, in the process of tossing some sort of bomb at the cops. Dzhokhar jumped back in the Mercedes to get away, ended up driving over his brother, and finally crashed the car again in Watertown, at which point he apparently escaped on foot. How far could he have gotten realistically with every cop in Boston looking for him?"

He has to be holed up in someone's house. He would have already been found if he wasn't. Hopefully no one else gets hurt.

Wonder if this is the same situation as the Atlanta Courthouse Shooter, Brian Nichols, and he broke into someone's home and is hiding there with the occupying residents being held hostage at gunpoint?

That's what I think. Hopefully no one else gets killed. If he wasn't they would had to have caught him by now. A few thousand troops and helicopters... there is no way he could have gotten much farther than that neighborhood.

however if they did a bit of work as car mechanics, if they both knew how to succinctly hotwire vehicles,
we maybe might assume the fleeing teenager might have been ambitiously lucky if given to being felonious

How nice, an anti-marijuana story to tie into this fiasco.

The younger Boston Marathon bombing suspect seemed more interested in blunts than bombs while in college in Massachusetts, his classmate told POLITICO on Friday.

“He didn’t seem like a dangerous person at all,” said Chris Barry, a sophomore at UMass-Darmouth, who became friends with Dzhokhar Tsarnaev — now a bombing suspect — on their first day of school. “He was a pot head, a normal pot head. I couldn’t even imagine him being mad at someone let alone hurting someone.”

Plied with drugs by his handlers??

If captured, I hope Administration will at least consider holding the Boston suspect as enemy combatant for intelligence gathering purposes.

The last thing we may want to do is read Boston suspect Miranda Rights telling him to "remain silent."

STFU Graham.

They want to make them look crazy for having normal human emotions. See, they must be terrorists, their families aren't acting normal because they don't see why we shouldn't riddle their kids with a hundred bullets and assume their guilt. UNREASONABLE!

SMFH. Peter King probably sent out similar sentiments.

"Some of Rand Paul’s critics laughed at the hypothetical he emphasized in his filibuster last month but, well, here we are:"

Uh, can someone ask Holder if he considers Tsarnaevan American citizen actively plotting with al Qaeda or its affiliates? Seems relevant.

Is it some unconstitutional law that says you don't have rights until the cops read/give them to you?

 

[kcchiefs6465]

Holy shit.

Suspect's mother saying that the FBI was with them every step of the way.

CNN: Dad on phone says kids were framed and the police are cowards.

Gets cut off.

Considering all the navy seals on location, and all the things that don't make sense, this is very likely true.

Remember, this was timed to go into effect with the passage of the gun control bill. And all that actually rage and weeping was for a reason. This.

Martial law in Boston on America's birthday.
