Gunfire, explosions reported around Dexter Street in Watertown. (Boston)[W: 83,846]

Re: Gunfire, explosions reported around Dexter Street in Watertown. (Boston)[W: 83]

This is just bizarre. Among the bombers religious inspirations was an Australian anti-Harry-Potter Sheikh.

Somehow we've got to take this guy alive. There's a lot to find out from him.

Boston is already the most racially insensitive and divided city in the U.S. This is only going to make it worse.

maybe, seems like such a disconnect, from them, the college mates etc., so much speculation for now, so weird and crazy
Side note:

Unfortunately, this will inevitably lead to a bunch of conspiracy theories as people cling to "facts" that were never true.

His speeches extend well beyond Harry Potter.

Sheikh Mohammed appears to have been a favorite intellectual source for Chechen-born Tsarnaev. On his YouTube playlist there are 19 online videos, all are on Islamic themes and four of them are lectures by Sheikh Mohammed, who first gained international notoriety in 2005 for teaching that women who were raped only had themselves to blame.

This is what is happening internationally. Rabid Islamic preachers in Australia, the UK, Saudi Arabia, or anywhere, now have access to Muslim radicals, or impressionable Muslims, everywhere.

"A victim of rape every minute somewhere in the world. Why? No one to blame but herself. She displayed her beauty to the entire world...Strapless, backless, sleeveless, showing their legs, nothing but satanic skirts, slit skirts, translucent blouses, miniskirts, tight jeans: all this to tease man and appeal to his carnal nature.”

These dudes really need to get laid.

That's the plan. Plant seeds worldwide and conquer the world like a Stage 4 malignant cancer.

Laid? Is there some alternate, more painful meaning of that word that I am not familiar with?

Nope, whenever I see one of these Islamic preachers talk about the temptations of women I'm reminded of a dude who's had a triple bypass describing a bacon cheese burger.

We ought to talk to him first. Then he can expire.

They should send him to prison and release him into the general population .

Re: Gunfire, explosions reported around Dexter Street in Watertown. (Boston)[W: 83]

They're ethnic Chechens, born in Kyrgyzstan, and they haven't been back in many years. Tying them to Chechnya is a bit like trying to tie Hermann Cain to Africa.

The Uncle says it all and spoke perfectly about this. They're losers and the chechens who have immigrated here, becoming good citizens, shouldn't be tarred by the actions of these two losers.

Oh, wow, I can't believe you just said that!...LOL!!! Does that mean you're going to stop calling black folks, "African Americans"?

Anyway, all that aside, I never said any of that. I'm only pointing out, that they are Muslims and evidently, they had some motivation to blow up American. Are they a part of a larger network? No one knows, at this point.

I'm only challeging those who are, "schocked", that they're Chechen Muslims, which I'm sure has more to do with their disappointment that these dudes aren't white, Repulican, males, from one of the former Confederate states.

I'll say it again: if you don't want to your comments to be questioned, don't make questionable comments.
 
Re: Gunfire, explosions reported around Dexter Street in Watertown. (Boston)[W: 83]

I was shocked they were Chechen...because we're never really had any issues with that country or it's people and they've largely been focused on russia more than the U.S.

The fact they may be radical islamists isn't shocking to me, but the Chechen part is.

They can't do that, because it would...*gasp*...violate his civil rights. The bleeding hearts would be raising nine-kinds-of-hell about it.
 
Re: Gunfire, explosions reported around Dexter Street in Watertown. (Boston)[W: 83]

My wife is native Russian and lived in St. Petersburg and Moscow for the first 30 years of her life. I was speaking with her just a little while ago and the fact that these guys are Chechen does not surprise her at all. Russia has a long history dealing with Muslim extremism that is rooted in this area of the country. To put it in her words: "It doesn't matter where they go in the world, they will always be crazy. They don't know anything else."
 
Re: Gunfire, explosions reported around Dexter Street in Watertown. (Boston)[W: 83]

His aunt is on CNN live.

This is his twitter account: https://twitter.com/J_tsar

This is a report on his twitter with responses from his (former) friends on twitter expressing shock: 'Stay Safe People': Here Is The Fugitive Boston Marathon Bombing Suspect's Twitter Account

One of his tweets from the day of bombings: "Ain't no love in the heart of the city, stay safe people"

Hard to gauge anything from a twitter account, a lot of it could be for show. Based on those tweets, he seemed far from an extremist Muslim, sounds tuned into western pop culture and doesn't seem to have much of a connection to Chechnya and Chechen politics except through heritage.

Sounds like an extremely prejudiced take on a large group of people.

Perhaps if you had grown up in Russia and had any idea what you are talking about...
