Great showing of our operations reacting.

Thanks Andrew....solidarity against these thugs.....I will toast Boston and also will have a moment of silence for those who were wounded and killed by these bums....

Glad that has been brought to a close. Beyond the terrible devastation already wrought, the bill for legal operations as well as the financial toll of stopping a good sized city for a day will be something to see.

[Baz]

Yeah but what about Benghazi....did we get THOSE guys?

Just saw a photo of the suspect in an ambulance. Its a frame capture from a video, so it could be distorted, but it looks like he has sustained a horrible head wound.

If we hadn't made it so hard for him to get an education, social life, healthcare, backwards hat, food he would have probably gone on with his life as a peaceful, considerate Muslim youth. But nooooo. Amerika just had to make him blow up a bunch of innocent people celebrating Patriots Day.

crowbob- you know this thread is going to move real fast to PARF.
Wait until you read the release statements from Ramzan Kadyrov
I promise to refrain any further and talking of this thug.

[Crowbob]

Yep.

Probably blood dried hair... can look much worse than it really is. Have a pic to share?

Glad they got him. Alive or dead, didn't matter to me, but I guess alive might be better in case there is anything profilers can learn from talking to him.

How about all those Watertown residents/gawkers standing outside a couple of blocks away futzing around with their cellphones and ipads after hearing gunshots?

If you knew there was possibly a killer in your neighborhood (regardless of what you heard at a press conference), would you be outside?

Standing around like an idiot? Have mercy.

Also, if you had been told to call 9-1-1 if you saw something unusual, and given there was an armed killer on the loose who possibly had explosives, and you saw blood on your boat and/or the tarp covering your boat, would you go look under the tarp?

It takes a special kind of stupid to do that.

And now that this whole ordeal is over, I hope somebody tells Col. Timothy Alben of the Massachussetts State Police to get refitted for a cap. I don't know if his head is too big or the cap is too small, but it just ain't right the way it is now...

[Crowbob]

I've noticed all those caps look dorky.

[motion]

I'm glad the brothers have been taken care of, but I hardly believe this is over. I'm thinking this is just the tip of the iceberg...

well...the guy seems to have been trapped inside a fishing boat on trailer in a gunfight with an entire city's police department (edit:wrong). I can't see how he would be alive if they didn't simply shoot the ground all around him making him think that he still had a chance while burning ammo. He still may have shot himself but had also been shot yesterday and was bleeding ever since.

The intersection of not enough blood and not enough bullets is tough.

edit: Made the mistake of believing early internet reports

These two dirtbags aren't necessarily representative of that society (although it does have a somewhat bloody and violent history). Islam on the other hand? I don't hear too many Muslims decrying their actions - particularly ones from that part of the world. I'm sure a lot of them were cheering at the news that Americans had been killed.

Here is the video of the same thing. He is P.O.ed. Can't imagine what this guy is going through.

Good job on capturing him alive! Somehow, I don't believe that two brothers would do this on themselves. FBI will hopefully found who helped them.

[aap1966]

No 14 virgins for him.

Actually it's 72.

No Schit, at least be armed!

Yes, No

Also, if you had been told to call 9-1-1 if you saw something unusual, and given there was an armed killer on the loose who possibly had explosives, and you saw blood on your boat and/or the tarp covering your boat, would you go look under the tarp?

Absolutely

It takes a special kind of stupid to do that.

To not do so would be cowardice

He's just a figure that talks and wears a hat, the people do the work.

Thank you, the fine citizen, for the apprehension of this rogue individual.
