My thoughts and prayers go out to all those people and their families. I hope they catch the scum cowards who would even think about doing something as heinous as this to people they don't even know.  |

Kill the other one too. I have no desire to hear their BS of why they hate whomever they hate, and spend millions on a trial.

They need him alive ...There has to be more people involved other than these two....someone is helping them. Get them all, then kill them slowly and painfully! I sure don't feel any mercy towards them or their kind(terrorists). They don't deserve any kind of a trail. If they die in a shootout, they become martyrs for other like minded individuals! That makes them heroes to the other seperatists! I feel for people of the Muslim faith, for true Muslims don't practice or use violence. This event makes me wonder how these 2 could have such a disregard for human life! What happened to make them hate their fellow humans so much?
I'm off the soapbox now............

You would not believe what it is like over here. The entire city and surrounds are in lockdown. Streets are deserted all day. This Fu . CK . Could be wearing a bomb and just waiting to press the button. Or he has already put a slug in his own head and is rotting away in a field somewhere while we are looking for him. The sooner he is found the better off the world will be.

That video served exactly the purpose it's uploader wanted...to try and stir up controversy. Look at what didn't happen: Every other house on the block didn't get searched, including the neighbors and the house of the photographer? Perhaps the owners of that house answered the door with a weapon in their hand, (a really stupid thing to do) or said something inappropriate to the officer when he knocked, or were engaging in some suspicious behavior...who knows? You'll notice that is the only house that they went to that extreme with the occupants. Something else was happening there. As a retired law enforcement person myself, in a situation like what occurred in Boston, you can't be too careful. Officers have families too and they want to go home to them ALIVE and well. The individual they were searching for had already demonstrated he had no regard for human life, so officers had to do what they had to do..in a similar situation, and they wanted to search my house??? I got nothing to hide and as long as my rights were not violated, I'd let them. I'm sure there are those who will condemn how the authorities handled this situation, but then, that kid wasn't hiding in their back yard with weapons and bombs and a willingness to use them!

I was listening to my scanner the entire day. I heard several calls where the callers stated that they had seen a strange person at a house in a window etc. . Then the officers would be dispatched to that location. Chances are they recceived a call about that house. Even if the police entered and got a look at something illegal I am sure with what was going on they would look the other way. Unless it was guns or something of the like.

I am in no way saying there wasn't danger, but there is danger every single day in every City in America. Are we going to shut down every City when something bad happens? Take a look at Chicago, they deal with murder every day in their City... but they don't shut down the City!
This was an over reaction by all departments of Government. Once this type of reaction happens once, it will continue to happen more and more. If others want to live like that so be it, I don't! |

In the aftermath of this incident, I can't help but dred the inevitable debates that will spring up over the handling of this, and whether the 4th amendment was violated by those house by house searches. When stuff like this happens, we always end up debating which is more important, security or liberties. And there are very valid reasons on both sides. |
