Two bomb blasts during the Boston Marathon

But seriously, dh should become a consonant cluster in English. Less confusion with voiced and voiceless dental fricatives.
 
Here's a picture showing the two suspects in the background about 20 minutes before the bombings:

I am having a terrible time with the whole lockdown and suspension of rights under the NDAA, here. Not many other Americans see it that way, though. We are losing a bit of what the US is suppose to be. I find it very frightening. I'm being scolded by the left and right alike. The punk is clearly guilty. Why not be fair about it? It's not like he could actually win.

On the flip side, the state of Michigan seems to be thumbing its nose at the Feds on this type of thing. I hope that trend continues with them, though I do find it odd they are doing this. Everyone else is being obedient.

Lindsey Graham and John McCain are the drone happy people of the GOP. Opposite of them would be Rand Paul and Mike Lee.

I agree, actually. It's tough. I think we're going to need a more blatant overreach ( or a painfully uncool Texan president ) to get people to notice again. I honestly wish they would start busting everyone for every tiny petty crime caught on any camera ( littering, jaywalking, smoking weed, spitting gum on the street. ) Not because I want that to happen, but because I wish people knew how much of the bare bones of a police state are already physically in place.

Will we ever have a police state? I would say the odds are very low, but not zero, and that's a problem when you have the framework in place already.

Not to sound :crazyeye: or anything, but I also think about this stuff.
 
Mt. Dew > All

Deal with it.

And Jarritos > Mt. Dew and anything else

Do you all really think he will be tried as an enemy combatant? I doubt it personally
 
"The reason to care what happens to [Dzhokhar Tsarnaev] is because how he is treated creates precedent for what the US government is empowered to do, including to US citizens on US soil. When you cheer for the erosion of his rights, you're cheering for the erosion of your own."

Do you remember Jose Padilla? He was a US citizen. The cat has been out of the bag.

Hell, do you remember the Black Panthers? The fight for the basic rights of the Constitution are constant, sometimes they will recede and at other times they will advance.
 
Well my facebook also lit up with local fascists, though it is facebook:

I see about 3 or 4 bad comments. Most of that is in-the-moment mob mentality stuff. Don't go busting a nut about that kind of stuff, FB is trash.
 
He'll be tried in a court. There is nothing to discuss on that. There are a few right wing nuts that are spouting out enemy combatant but the people shouting this are just nuts.
 

I didn't click the link but I just read the suspect's mother and father are saying they were set up and framed. And we know they were good kids just like Treyvon Martin's mother said her son was a good kid and didn't do anything wrong. So perhaps I was wrong about the bombers being right wing white male's. It must of have been that dark skinned man that CNN mentioned the other day.

I agree. The right wingers are nuts. They don't realize how much they have in common with these 2 bombers. I was right when I predicted (see higher up in the thread) that the bomber (I figured it was only one) was a right wing male. And I was right. These 2 bombers are right wingers (just not the type of right winger as you may think). They denounced the lack of values Americans had and bombed them because they have no morals. Sounds kind of like an anti-abortionist bomber.

So the right wingers should be careful. They will never be in power again. And soon they may see themselves facing military tribunals and losing their rights once the liberals get tyrannical once they are in power long enough (I give it another 20 years before the left oppresses the rights of the right).
 
Just so we're clear. It wasn't the Tea Party that did it as some were speculating earlier in the week right?

If what the parents are saying that they were framed and set up, then it could still be tea partiers.

Yea, we were all aware it was baseless and used the most circumstantial of evidence at the time. Mother Jones was the first publication to publicize the older brother's obvious affinity for radical Islam.
 
from what I've been hearing is religion didn't cause these 2 to bomb the marathon. It's unfair at this point to classify them as radical Islamic terrorists. It seems to me they were just a couple angry young men from a broken messed up family.
