Know that we, in less neutered parts of this country, watched in disgust as you cheered.
I have lived in Boston, so this is far from blind criticism from my end..
To the poster (Bone75) who wrote:
Whether you like it or not, we are in the middle of a holy war that has been waged upon us by radical islamists. It was an act of war and it was DEALT WITH by the proper authorities.
WRONG!
I'll take the 19yo cookery-wielding Chechen any day of the week. Not a$$hats aiming MP5's in my kids' windows.
You'd better not venture anywhere north of Rampart St. down in the Big Easy.

Double tap to the head.
Only way to take out someone with a suicide vest on, or somone with a trigger in their hand and not give them chance to blow it. Better odds of doing that with a scope on them.
But you knew that, right?

If the lockdown had not occurred at all the other brother would have been apprehended in likely the same fashion or would have died in the boat.
Why did they wait an hour if this lockdown was so effing necessary and important?

They had contact with him in 2011. If they thought he was a suspect they sholud have run his name through thier data base and seen they had contact previously. Are you saying they had no idea who he was? That is not true. And I never said martial law so were even k.

Then why didn't you point that out in the first place.
I was under the impression that U.S. military forces could not be deployed on U.S. soil. Are you saying that is incorrect?
He told the FBI apparently that he and his brother had intended to drive to New York and detonate additional explosives in Times Square. They had built these additional explosives, and we know they had the capacity to carry out these attacks.
POLICE COMMISSIONER RAYMOND KELLY, New York City: They discussed this while driving around in a Mercedes SUV that they had hijacked after they shot and killed an MIT police officer in Cambridge, Dzhokhar said.
That plan, however, fell apart when they realized that the vehicle that they hijacked was low on gas and ordered the driver to stop at a nearby gas station.

People died, in bombings, through an act of terrorism, carried out by people who have no regard for human safety and wellbeing whatsoever.
And you expect the LEO's and anti-terror people to observe niceties when trying to catch that person?
What if they'd killed again, or blow somewhere else up?
How does the saying go? "Those who would give up liberty for security deserve neither"..Or something like it.

Also the boys were not on the run for what three days, so thats when they could have picked him up. If they are not running what is the sense of annouuncing you are comming to get them. They didn't know they were suspects till you told them, seem dangerous to release that info before you check it out.
You may say how do I know they didn't. I don't. Just like I don't know if they did it, or if there were other bombs.
I have seen no evidence to convince me beyond a reasonable doubt that 1. they did it 2. the killed a cop. 3 they had other bombs. 4. the suspect ever fired back.
I don't claim to "know" I just suspect everything. No proof no case.
