Boston Marathon Explosions

America doesn’t care anymore, we’ve moved on to the bigger explosion in TX.

A good read lol

Perhaps NYPost is using 4chan as their source?

I’m looking forward to hearing the FBI explain their decision to release the info that they have these clear pictures of who they’re looking for but choosing not to release those pictures to the public.

Either keep quiet so the people you’re trying to find don’t know, or release the pictures so the public can help you find them. Right now they’ve basically said, “hey, we know who you are but want to give you a chance to escape since only law enforcement know who to look for”.

State troopers in gas masks were scene rushing to the area shortly after the blast,

I expected better from CNN

So I guess the Police/FBI are pretty keen on these two?

<EDIT>

Apparently one of these guys is a track and field runner, and not a bomber:

Fucking stupid…

Yeah I certainly feel bad for those guys if they are innocent. I mean shit, national media attention because they have bags at a marathon… let’s get some solid details and evidence before deflaming potentially innocent people like that.

Reasons why I hate the media. Posting/reporting things they hear with no true evidence or actual facts rather they just say what ever comes to them, true or false. It’s annoying as shit and I think its wrong.

The part that really pisses me off. Yes, you can find all the ways on making a bomb on the internet but that’s if you search for it and know how to search. also the fact it can probably bring red flags up.
When the media actually informs people how they can obtain these devices/parts to make one, how to make one… I think the media should be find and some harsh punishments should follow. Its bullshit how much info they give out to the public and give ideas to the next person on what they can do to better the crime.

(“man caught after he did… Had this not happened, he would have gotten away”) Great, so you are informing people the better ways of getting away with a crime.

end rant.

I don’t blame the media for this nonsense. It is up to you as the reader to decide if you want to run with it or not. If you watch it or read it, you promote them. They are in business to make money too and if you support them, then you are helping to push what they post.

Agreed…If someone posts an article saying “This is what we think although we don’t really have solid proof” then you turn around and post it like it’s concrete evidence…that’s your fault. Research

And giving out details or sites you can go to for creating bombs? That’s fine with you guys?

Free speech

It’s not like someone couldn’t figure out how to make a bomb.

You can make a bomb out of a freezy ice pack. It is just a chemical reaction.

You can also make a tasty cocktail with Frozen OJ and Gasoline.

“Intelligent” people will find a way. Generally people driven to do this research-research-research. I don’t think they will ask their friends. The media telling Joe Schmo, who is already too lazy to take action, is less likely to motivate that person.

Do you think Video games are the reason there is so much Gun Violence? Car Thefts? Rapes? Ponzi Schemes?

Up until this event I don’t remember the media saying “Imagine if someone did that…no one could stop them.”

If someone is driven enough; unfortuneately, it will happen.

Fight Club reference? I also question your taste buds if you’re saying that OJ and Gasoline is tasty. Is LUKE L a robot? Is that how he’s so damn good with electronics?

Hey, if you want big brother watching over you and censoring what you can see, by all means go for it. I highly doubt that anyone will allow that to happen because it is all for one and one for all. Me, I can handle what I see and determine what is real and not real. I am human and sometimes fall for things the media posts. The unfortunate part is that most people want to turn their back to what is real and happening and go back to their 9-5 and comfortable home that they have. In reality, they have no idea what it takes for them to have that freedom and to not have to live in fear.

You would probably be a lot safer if we gave up the 5th amendment…1st amendment…2nd amendment.

You NEED to take a stand and call your local representatives get pressure cooker background checks and limits on fertilizer!

Hopefully they can censor the internet also!

BAN WIKIPEDIA THAT GOT FORUMLAS AND SHIT ON THERE ANFO - Wikipedia & Acetone peroxide - Wikipedia :slight_smile:

How many nails does one man need? At what point does it cross over from a simple nail purchase to an “assault nail” purchase? Background check for putty knives and anything sharp or capable of being sharpened? How should we know if you’re building a deck or a bomb?

For a group that claims to be “for the people” liberals sure do seem to distrust & hold fellow citizens in low regard. 8/

So much speculation
