The Saudi Arabian man who is reportedly in police custody following the Boston Marathon bombing was chased and tackled by bystanders shortly after the blast, according to CBS.

Senior correspondent John Miller, a former assistant director of the FBI, reported this:

There is an individual in custody … he is not free to go.

He is a Saudi national who was near the scene of the blast. When the blast happened he began to run. Now, in context, a lot of people began to run. A civilian who thought he was acting suspiciously chased him down and tackled him and then turned him over to Boston police....

When will the Saudi Nationalist be whisked out of the country? Never to be heard from again. Meanwhile they will make up some right wing garbage.

Amazingly, it’s in the first picture that came out of one of the explosions.

I just heard on the radio that there are tapes of the guy that put the bombs in the trash cans....The police are going through all the city’s videos of the run....so they should be able to identify him soon....

That all depends on just how severe this guy’s burns are. Allegedly ‘severe’ burns.

Could just be standard security for a large event.

From Twitter: “It was confirmed the man on the roof was just Boston Marathon security.”

When the SB was here in Indy back in 2012, they had security all over the building roofs. All week long before he game.

And snipers located throughout the stadium.

Every time I see that picture, I'd like to shove my boot up his skinny ass.

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

We need to issue fatwa against Saudi Arabia.

We should've done that after 9-11-01 when we learned that 15 of the 19 hijackers were Saudi's!

We need to finish the job.

Finish what job? We never went after the bastards in the first place! They were responsible for 9-11 and we attack Iraq?! WTF!!!

Far as I'm concerned, nuke the whole mf'in Middle East and get it over with. The bastards all hate us anyway and they're dancin' in the streets again today after this attack... F'em.

From that angle the person on the roof cannot even see the explosions.

I don’t recall anyone ever taking credit for 9/11.

You're kidding, right? Did you really miss the tapes of OBL that were released in October of 2001 showing him and his muzzie friends celebrating in Afghanistan?

Well, at least the one detonating.

It’s probably nothing.

Ted Kaczynski (aka “The Unabomber”) was further left than Bill Ayers.

"15. Leftists tend to hate anything that has an image of being strong, good and successful. They hate America, they hate Western civilization, they hate white males, they hate rationality. The reasons that leftists give for hating the West, etc. clearly do not correspond with their real motives. They SAY they hate the West because it is warlike, imperialistic, sexist, ethnocentric and so forth, but where these same faults appear in socialist countries or in primitive cultures, the leftist finds excuses for them, or at best he GRUDGINGLY admits that they exist; whereas he ENTHUSIASTICALLY points out (and often greatly exaggerates) these faults where they appear in Western civilization. Thus it is clear that these faults are not the leftist's real motive for hating America and the West. He hates America and the West because they are strong and successful."

Absolutely nothing wrong with this which is not to say the Saudi ran for no legitimate reason.

Yes, of course I saw that. But they were celebrating, just like the muzzies in the Middle East are right now over Boston today, but they are not taking credit for it.
