Roupen Bastajian, a 35-year-old Rhode Island state trooper, had just finished the race and donned a heat blanket when he heard the first blast. "I started running toward the blast. And there were people all over the floor,'' he tells AP.

Mr Bastajian adds: "We started grabbing tourniquets and started tying legs. A lot of people amputated... At least 25-30 people have at least one leg missing, or an ankle missing, or two legs missing.''

Hey remember all the Pakistanis being shot down by drones and other people (primarily) the US are slaughtering in the Middle East? Perhaps the US government and the people should look at why these attacks are happening. And while it may be tragic as no man should be killed, and I would not wish it on anybody, but the hypocrisy is absolutely outstanding.

Although America are the cause of a lot of death in the Middle East there is no reason to compare the situations as America is obviously going to get a lot more media coverage of the situation because of its high standing in everyday society. Yes the fact that we are so bothered about the deaths that have happened in America and no so much the ones in the Middle East is hypocritical but peoples lives are still at risk and the hypocrisy of the situation should be ignored as the people that have been affected basically have no choice about what the Government do to countries such as Pakistan etc.

It's not obvious as the value of the life of a citizen of the USA is no greater & no less than anybody else. Just because they have a more dominant role on the world stage doesn't mean they have - or should be - the centre of attention. The real problem is the mainstream media doesn't want to report the bombings in the Middle East otherwise it will severely damage public confidence whereas an event like this, as -:Undertaker:-; suggested will just be used to rob the liberties of people for the sake of "security".

So yes peoples lives are at risk when they shouldn't be and to be quite frank it isn't fair, but the hypocrisy shouldn't be ignored.

i realise how unfair it is, that deaths like this happen in the middle east everyday and they go unrecognised by the rest of the world. i also understand that with attacks such as the one today, people are thinking 'that could have been me'. it's a selfish thought, but i think one which most will have. they feel more empathy with the people living in a society similar to their own

Considering we only know of 3 dead, and 2 of them are rumoured to be children, plus it says she died whilst she was running the marathon, I doubt it. From what it seems, most of the dead will be those in the crowd, I'm pretty sure you can see all the runners in the video, and none of them seem to get gravely injured. So I'd say it's not true.

Just watched ITV news and the reporter said that the Saudi guy's house was searched (showing images of the FBI taking bags of crap out) so there has to be some sort of credibility behind that.

Cerys
16-04-2013, 02:21 PM
The search on the home in Revere, north of Boston, was connected to a young
Saudi citizen who is visiting on a student visa and has been questioned, a law
enforcement official said. So far, the official told CNN, he has not heard of
anything being found connecting the person to the bombings.

May not be the Saudi dude. I really do hope they find the person/people who did it and give them what they deserve.. It's just awful

You're more likely to succeed at committing a crime if you blend in (unless ofc a google satellite manages to capture it) and act normal - imagine walking into a shop and trying to shoplift something, acting shifty is just going to attract someone's attention - so I imagine it'd be really easy to walk up to a bin and pretend you're throwing rubbish away.

Bit late to this but such tragic news. There are so many graphic photos of the event released shortly after it happened (thanks reddit). One that will stick in my mind for a very long time is the image of a man being wheeled off with a severed leg clearly showing bone and a missing foot. The definition of NSFL became obvious aftert hat. This is all very haunting, and obviously big news for the simple fact this is an event which will be recorded officially and by the public, so very little will go hidden especially in a country which has a large population which will use recording devices wherever they are.

What I find a bit interesting is that quite a few Americans believe this is such big news here because it's an "international" marathon and that the world was watching - even though countries other than the US only knew of the Boston Marathon that day because of this tragic event. The only interesting info about the Boston Marathon is that it's possibly one of the oldest modern day marathons, but by no means the largest or the most popular as far as the intentional community goes. The flags of different countries are simply for decoration, much like their World Series Baseball which is only an American event.

Michael Savage said exactly this, that I bet Obama and the White House were praying the suspect was a right-wing Tea Party member so they could then discredit the right of politics... just as what happened with the nutcase Anders Breivik (who i'm not even sure was right wing but was certainly made out to be) - sadly for the Obama administration, it looks to be another immigrant/illegal alien thanks to the out of control immigration and borders policy of the United States.

On a side note, personally I don't think anybody should be stopped in the street or profiled regardless of colour - if you haven't committed a crime and there's no reasonable grounds of suspicion to stop you then I don't think government goons have any right to stop you and ask you questions.

CCTV surveillance from near the Marathon lead them to finding the two suspects and putting their pictures out
They robbed a store at MIT, killing a police officer
Police then pursued them while getting IEDs thrown at them
There was a shoot out, killing one suspect and injuring an officer
SWAT and the Police then locked down the town, canceling public transport etc
They then done sweeps of houses checking for the suspect

In the end there obviously couldn't have been much left and they found him on a boat, shootout again and captured him

It is a bit odd - it's dodgy patriotism. They're chanting USA, yet these men were/are US Citizens and learnt these views due to the freedoms the US promote. Then you get the really odd Tweet or announcement by Boston Police saying "CAPTURED!!! The hunt is over. The search is done. The terror is over. And justice has won. Suspect in custody." Is the terror over? You clearly say suspect so justice has not be won and the terror is far from over.

I wouldn't say it's sad, I imagine it is a relief that the curfew is over. Besides, Americans do like to celebrate and show off their happiness openly without sensing a hint of irony :P

I'm more concerned that quite a lot of Americans cannot tell the difference between the Czech Republic and Chechnya. Even if they could, these two people are technically American AND last I checked Chechnya wasn't an evil terrorist strong hold.

Yeah, too right on American's liking to celebrate - and the weird patriotism too.

Particularly odd, as the USA is basically a load of different cultures thrown into one - so these two people really are no more or less American than a very large minority of others in the country. I used the term large minority as they were not born there, which the majority of the current generation were..

Indeed, and they can't argue it's an immigrant problem. The US is a fine example of a country built on immigration :P The psychology behind the bombings could point towards a break down in this idea that America is a utopia, that something in the US must of angered and altered these individuals to hate something of the culture, but this is an entirely different conversation.

Funny really, isn't it? A country built off immigration (very well described, by the way), likes to attach the blame to other cultures etc as frequently as possible.

It happened a lot when Obama was sworn into office or running for president. The whole State divide in itself is a localised problem in the same way as our North and South divide. When Bush was in Office, he was thinking like a Texan rather than an American because the diversity in that country is just too much for one man and party. I'm not saying that having just Republicans and Democrats is a bad idea, but there are so many views that too often these two parties have internal conflicts which must leak out when in office :P

I'm wondering where the idea that it was a utopia came from. When you look back at American history it is riddled with conflict in all eras and in some ways the country is still divided. As I mentioned, the State divide is one problem as the concept of a utopia is a bit self-defeating. If people have an idea of their own freedoms then these freedoms may counter the freedoms of others. Religion is one problem, and expression. Both good freedoms or "rights", but they often contradict each other to the point you get conflict - Westboro Church, these individuals etc etc. It's a superfluous utopia, to sum it up briefly.

is anyone still following this? if you are you'll see the media and police have changed their story concerning the capture and shoot out and carjacking so much times. anyway i follow this girl on tumblr (and did so before this happened) and she reblogs 'evidence' and conspiracy theories proving the brothers are innocent and blah. I've looked through tags on tumblr, been on http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/dzhokhar which links to videos and peoples theories and idk what to believe but main thing ive taken from it is, it's funny how suddenly people begin to realise the media brainwashes us... and that these people have only started to realise this because the two suspects were young and attractive so we don't want to believe they did it lol i can't help but think the same myself, human nature sucks balls.

i wonder just how much conspiracy theories are true?! never believed any that like government are all evil cause i don't believe that all but the media for sure skews things.

i've been following this quite closely and this conspiracy is complete bull, the two brothers did it.

yeah media get things wrong and they'll exaggerate as much as they can get away with, but from everything i've seen it's clear as day it was the two brothers who carried out the whole thing.

i follow the younger brothers best friend on twitter, who's claiming he's innocent.

https://twitter.com/TroyCrossley

the 'evidence' is just recycled garbage they keep using that has been ruled out many times, or photos where they're misidentifying the person. for example that photo of the younger brother in the white hat walking away from the explosion, the best friend is posting that pic and circling another man in the crowd saying it's the older brother with the backpack still on. HOWEVER in the higher resolution version of that photo it's clearly not the older brother at all


AND CAN I JUST ADD, the whole thing about the people in the blast being amputees and actors? get a ******* grip
can't get my head around people actually believing that crap

I believe they did do it i don't believe the government are corrupt/evil/plan these things or that supernatural forces at hand or that there's someone even higher than government controlling this, I just don't understand why the media constantly posts contradicting things because it makes them seem guilty and the whole thing dodgy.. Thank god the public are finally catching on tho. imagine how much convicted people may not actually have done whatever they're convicted of but are made to seem like it. that's kinda scary but people will find it hard to admit maybe they're innocent cause we don't want to defend someone who may be a murderer and whatever else... this is why I don't get into conspiracy theories cause if you're right, nothing will be done about it anyway and everyone jus takes media/gov word for it.
power of the Internet tho, maybe something will come to light but like everything else, it'l prob be forgotten about
excuse my lazy posting its past my bedtime
al,so I was going to mention about the actors too, there would have been hundreds of them needed for this, hundreds of people who have family and friends and people who know them, there's no way they could get away with faking thst

i believe they did it, it's the whole carjacking and shoot out and capturing that'd all messed up, one minute he's apparently surrendered himself in the boat next minute they apparently dragged him out. One minute he had a gun and shot himself, next no gun :S that's what's confusing me . & a witness said it was a policeman who ran over the eldest whereas police are saying it was the youngest brother which ofc they prob would, spose it doesn't take away from the fact a police officer was killed by one of them during the shoot out

media is always going to exaggerate, it'll help them get more views and that's what they're after

I'm sure a lot of people in prison are actually innocent and have been set up.

on a story like this it's a matter of speed.. the faster you can publish an article the more people are going to come to your site to see the latest breaking news, so they're going to publish stuff instantly without looking at the evidence to back up the story and will result in some inconsistencies by the media.

they're terrorist scum who shot and killed one officer and wounded another, so the police probably did run over the older one to kill him (or maybe it was the easiest way to immobilize him if he had IEDs and a gun) and shot to wound the younger one (if he did have a gun and shot himself, he'd shoot himself in the head not in the neck..), so the police probably did then covered it up as they're hardly going to admit to it but fair play to them.

I think they did it, if they didn't, why would they have explosives in their hijacked car and throw them at police, and have a gun fight with them? The only dodgy thing is him being captured. It wouldn't suprise me if he was unarmed, and the police ended up shooting him, but just aren't admitting it...

well another account says they only had one 9mm gun between the two of them and they shot the police officer for his gun but that's why it's all confusing cause it doesn't add up. nothing about bombs in that account. then they were claiming they took his gun and the youngest had it with him in the boat then shot himself, next they say he was unarmed so all the details is muddled. i do believe they did it but don't believe everything that's happened afterwards.

I've been looking into some of the theories but there is also actual legit reasons for what some people have been saying. Not sure if any new ones come up but it's hard to believe unless you have access to all of the evidence yourself.

i can understand the logic if he did shoot himself though, he's a kid and you see people put a gun in their mouth and shoot upwards to kill themselves, this kid may have freaked, put the gun in his mouth but just shot straight without thinking

none of us were there, so we'll never know the full story but there's enough evidence imo to show that it was them, regardless of the story constantly changing

I swear I read somewhere that they didn't find a gun in the boat?

yeah i know, it was reported he shot himself but others are saying no gun so it would have been the police
if it WAS him though, i'm saying i can understand how he could have ****** it up

just wondering why the police would shoot at him though if they had him surrounded on the boat, and knew that the only way to get answers would be to keep him alive

The shoot out looked real enough from the photos someone took of the events. From the two behind a car in the road being shot at, to the elder brother being run over by the younger brother, who passes in between two police cars. There were a few pictures of bomb disposal robots blowing up suspected explosives too. I'll see if I can find them.

Regardless of the theories, loads of people were killed and these two were acting incredibly guilty for two supposedly innocent people. Why steal a car if you're innocent? Why shoot at the police chasing you? Very guilty actions for "harmless", innocent individuals.

Media stories contradicting means nothing. I get when people say the government did it... But for the media to be on it too, literally hundreds if not thousands of people would have to be in on it...

... as if that wouldn't get leaked :S
