Next thing you know, they'll have convenience hook-ups for pressure cookers.

What with everyone in such a rush these days, people should be show to get a head start on their dinner while in transit. And why not? Really now - what could POSSIBLY happen?!?

The terrorist attack in Boston proved that when the shit hit the fan: the FBI and Boston PD put on a good media show.
They locked-down all of Boston and surrounding neighborhoods, including Watertown. Intensive manhunt only
within a 20-block area of Watertown for 12 hours and didn't locate the terrorist. He was just one block outside of the intensive manhunt area, hiding in a clearly visible covered boat in a residential backyard which wasn't discovered by PD patrol cars nor helicopters.

The homeowner who went outside, just minutes after the "shelter in place" order was lifted ("Residents can go outside, but be vigilant") was lucky that he didn't get his head blown off by the terrorist, who he found hiding in that boat when he looked inside the cover.

At least the FBI should replace the guy's boat after shooting it up.

" Intensive manhunt only

Have you seen the videos of people being removed from their homes at gunpoint, forced to run away from their own property with their hands on their heads?

Absolutely disgusting. I didn't think the US would go this far towards police-state-ism.

Note the media spinning this as people being "rescued" from the safety of their own homes!

And then the benighted sheep are actually thanking the thugs for that they did!

Yeah. And do we really think they have caught the right guy?

These Tsarnaev brothers went to the gum, then to check on their car at the garage where it was being fixed, all just a few hours after the bomb went off.

Do we really think two guys who just committed an act of international terrorism would do that?

And some paper said the FBI said it has a video of one of the brothers dropping the backpack on the pavement, but that video was never released. The FBI released lots of pics and videos, but that crucial one that would have given them a reason to suspect the Tsarnaevs.

Something is rotten in the state of Denmark.

It's not Denmark (although of course they're Communists too) ... they're Czech. So it's Czech Republic we need to nuke. Denmark if we have any left over.

Nobody is talking about nuking, except trollalanhart.

My point is that homeowner discovered the terrorist hiding in his own backyard:
In his boat that was known to his neighbors (and certainly to the neighborhood's police dept. patrol officers/cars) to be parked there all year, except for during the summer when he boated.

Yet nobody on the police force thought of checking that boat out.
The 20-block area, one block away, was under intensive search. All of Boston was locked-down, including transportation and Amtrack.

The terrorist (sorry to inform you, GraffitiGrammarian) had been hiding out in the boat for probably 20 hours, since he ran from the shoot-out. He was bleeding to death and would have died in that boat.
It was an easy place to access and hide inside of it.

The President couldn't bring himself to refer to the attack as a "terrorist attack".
The same as his response to the terrorist attack in Benghazi. Our ambassador and several other Americans were murdered. The ridiculous excuse for the refusal to upgrade security there (although our ambassador was pleading for help); was that the attack was in response to an anti-Muslim video protest (which never existed).

As per former Secretary Of State, Hillary's Clintonian testimony:
"What difference does it make?!"
