Anyone else bewildered by the sheer physics of that many victims lost limbs at once? Plus the blood-splatter is all over the fucking place, not just going out from the blast zone from what it looks like. Plus, mailbox or trash can that bomb was in must've dampened the explosion at least a little. (plus the immediately surrounding people, too)

Hey man just like... checkin in cuz I know you guys are like soooo worried about me. dicks. Not to worry tho, I was at McGreevys eatin this sick plate of wings they were just like gonna throw out cuz like some guy sneezed on em or somethin. Rebecka was whinin about wanting to get some fried dough at the finish line or some shit so I threw her a buck and told her to swipe me one of those like tin foil towel things. Haven't seen her since. So NOOOOOO Mrs Kelly, obnoxious sister, fuckin buttmunch friends that keep texting me asking me if she made it out alive but not even asking about my new go-kart I posted mad photos of on facebook I got.....I DONT KNOW WHERE SHE IS. Happy? Get off a dudes back already.
"And yet, there are still people—literally millions of them—who actually have to ask why we didn’t simply slow down and wait until the whole story came in so that we could run an accurate, fact-checked article that didn’t exaggerate the number of dead by 9 or 10 people. To that, I say: How could you even think about accurately reporting a tragedy at a time like this? When those pipe bombs or whatever they were—I believe they were pipe bombs—went off, we weren’t wasting time making routine inquiries with law enforcement officials, or relying on the reporting of those actually on the ground, or maintaining even a tenuous grasp on the journalistic conventions of truth and integrity. We were doing what needed to be done: dashing off haphazard, poorly sourced yellow journalism that included an entirely speculative report on a Saudi national who we strongly suggested was behind the attack without a modicum of supportive evidence."
Some news sources are reporting that these were pressure cooker bombs placed in backpacks at street level. Thus it seems like the answer is that the explosives themselves were not actually that powerful, because these bombs are more powerful versions of the coke bottle bombs we made as kids. So the blast was probably most intense where channeled by the pavement. That would be at about ankle level as the explosion traveled outward and upward from the pressure bombs.
However, this explains why these people look so much in shock, in addition to the usual reasons. They're concussed.
What a mess. It's so easy for someone to do something like this, and so devastating in consequence.
DERRR I'M DWYER AND I'M A MISANTHROPE LOOK AT MY TATTOO I HATE EVERYONE
RTTP has always prized itself on its irreverence. Also, it helps to break up the mood of misery and hatred that is forming. We don't want to rush off to war again and the first step in that is breaking up our sense of national outrage. We should handle this situation logically, like all others.

Bullshit. The only thing in your thoughts is how you can use this latest event to eventually spam us with more of your anti-liberal, anti-multiculturalist, anti-whatever white power nonsense. And if the perp turns out to be a lone-wolf Anders Breivik type, who chances are you'd probably know from your beloved wp sites, then you'll be telling us all how they were hired by the liberals. Fuck you, Texas cocksucker. You may spark some good discussions here sometimes, but don't think for a second that anyone believes you actually care about anything except your own fucked up agenda.
Doesn't matter what the agenda is, point is he has one and his "show of sympathy" is insincere.
So... having beliefs and wanting to keep advocating for them instantly makes someone a soulless corrupt bastard without the slightest potential for sympathy? Anything more than a cheesy "in our thoughts" would be a lot more manipulative sounding from a state that likely hasn't been affected by these events whatsoever.

yeah, they look like undercover secret service. I'm pretty sure that they are breaking all the "how to blend in" rules and I'm fairly certain that the guy on the right is Joe Sly (who thinks Patty's day is a mad house) and the one on the left is Sam Rachet who worked at (fuck the system)

And now the federal courthouse is being cleared as the bomb sniffing dogs are on the scene.
And in other news CISPA just passed the house, now on to the senate to get passed while nobody pays attention.

This seems really off to me, like it's a diversion.
Leak news that someone's been arrested and that they're being taken to the courthouse? Obviously that sets off a gawker and media rush to that location. Next call in a threat? Our attention is being diverted towards the courthouse, and away from somewhere else.

On The Last Supper: It was actually a brunch. The check reveals that one guy only had a soft-boiled egg and tea, while everyone else stuffed themselves. But when the bill was paid, it was divided equally. The moral: "In groups, always order the most expensive thing."

Well, when you're talking about the dude responsible for the "Chuck Schuldiner died of AIDS" meme, yeah, it pretty much does.

Reddit people are of course the LEAST capable people you want doing this.
and then this article will get upvoted to oblivion on Reddit. get the fuck out of here with "Reddit people" as it's just a platform that a small group of internet junkies decide to use to play detective while another group debates the merits of doing that. to me the site is a great place to get links to other sites and completely avoid everyone else's two cents.

Reddit people are an isolated group of losers, like inbred people in a small town. You know it's true.
"Who hires these guys? The Boston Athletic Assoc. for the BOSTON MARATHON. Why? Because it’s the BOSTON MARATHON. Who carries these “expensive devices”? Private security forces…and, by the way, they sell for around $700. Hardly expensive. Jesus, why is having a security force present at an event with tens of thousands of people so alarming? If the bombing happened and you couldn’t find ANY security in the photographs you’d be crying foul just the same."
I can see that 4chan put alot of work into that, http://imgur.com/a/sUrnA but explain why the two brothers were throwing explosives at police. This seems pretty obvious. The fact that everyone thinks they are a photo journalist and knows everything about profiling is fucking up peoples perspective..

People are fucking retarded -
Here's the guys this person is claiming are the actual suspects running toward the explosion, both still with backpacks.
anybody wanna give a not-alex-jones link to holes in the "official" story?

Why hasn't the person who got carjacked been video interviewed? The whole MIT Cop death/gas station/Carjacking has not been explained in thorough detail, yet.
My theory is that the person who had their car taken was a friend of theirs. They said that it was a Mercedes SUV. Their friends all drove nice cars, and had a Mercedes fetish, according to reports.
I'm not talking about the actual bombing events. It's everything else. I hope they fill in the story's holes, because I don't buy what any of the media tells us and don't trust the FBI's word on anything.

I heard the guy that was carjacked on a clip on NPR for what it's worth. It seemed like he didn't see the shooting but said he had a bugged out kid demand his keys and he just handed them over.
post by porphyria at Apr 22,2013 12:52pm
Maybe the dude doesn't want to be interviewed, especially if he's a friend of theirs.
I want to see all police dashboard cams for each encounter.
I want to see conformation of information rather than speculation and erroneous information fed out by the FBI so they don't undermine their image and mishandling of this case.
There are so many holes in the official story that it's sickening.
Similar to the Christopher Dorner thing. Not much makes sense here.
Also, due to the fact that newspapers can't sell newspapers, journalism has really reached an all-time low. You used to look to written journalism to do their jobs and conduct some investigative reporting, now they're not any better than the fucking TV morons -- at least TV news has been consistent and always sucked.

I'm still very suspicious of the Craft operatives, but I do not see a backpack on whitehat's shoulder here.
I just read the affidavit and it lists his dorm room number. It's eeirly similar to one of mine (lived in the same dorm for two years, different rooms). Going to try to confirm tonight. Fucking weird.
you guys are fucked. It can't get more obvious that they did this. There is fucking video of them dropping the bags, once the trial begins it will be released. Explain the bombs that were thrown at the cops, explain the bombs that were found in the car and in the apartment. Explain ANYTHING with real facts, not internet mumbo jumbo theories.
Yeah, I'd put it this way: presumption of innocence is automatic in our system, but that doesn't mean presumption of conspiracy should be automatic. Skepticism is very healthy and all, but I'd wager at least three out of four people who are tried wrongly face that because of either mistakes or self-denial by prosecutors/investigators who have already invested resources and promised justice to families of victims, as opposed some perfectly coordinated malicious intent on a conspiratorial level. It can happen, certainly, but it's far more rare.
Definitely, they're prone to mistakes as well, notoriously in the first few weeks of a huge story. Little bits of misinformation seep into the public consciousness as a result, and even if corrected, only a fraction of people who heard the original story hear the correction.
The note, scrawled with a pen on the interior wall of the cabin, said the bombings were retribution for U.S. military action in Afghanistan and Iraq, and called the Boston victims collateral damage in the same way Muslims have been in the American-led wars. "When you attack one Muslim, you attack all Muslims," the note added.
Dzhokar said he didn't mourn older brother Tamerlan, the other suspect in the bombings, writing that by that point, Tamerlan was a martyr in paradise -- and that he expected to join him there.
