They're 'trying to kill me!' Store clerk recounts carjack victim's escape
Fox News ^ | 4/19/2013 | Jana Winter

Tarek Ahmed was working at gas station in Cambridge, Mass. Thursday night when a young man ran into his store screaming.

"Call the police! Call the police! These people are trying to kill me!"

The young man was allegedly carjacked at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology by the two men authorities now say have been identified as the Boston Marathon bombing suspects.

Authorities said early Friday the suspects dropped off the victim after driving around with him for about 30 minutes.

Ahmed, 45, described the young man as Caucasian and between 20 and 25 years old. He said the young man ran into his store "shaking and scared and very nervous."

"I thought he was drunk. I didn't believe him when he came in it just sounded very crazy," Ahmed told FoxNews.com in an exclusive interview.

Perhaps if Massachusetts allowed law-abiding citizens to carry concealed, there would be two dead carjackers and one live MIT cop.

I think I’d just stay armed (I know—it’s Boston—pretty impossible) in my locked tight house with the lights off and the windows covered until everyone involved in these bombings is rounded up and in custody........

I thought all this chaos following the Boston Marathon was taking place in the Boston area, not some haven in Afganistan or Pakistan. Is there anyone in that area who is NOT a foreign national?

There is a thread downstream that is probably now over 700 comments starting last night at eleven something, that covers much of what went on and is still going on in Boston.

Well, not in LA. Few here are Caucasians. :)

Tarek Ahmed witnessed John Jones running in screaming about terrorists named Tsarnaev reported by Singh Pramabahdad with an additional report by Tsu Sin Pronu Si Ahn Zee on and we wonder what the real problems are in the U.S.?

I’d certainly want to be armed at this point.

If you head up that way quick before the Senate passes amnesty, you might get lucky and find one or two.

It’s sad. They tolerate and live in their own shitty countries till it looks like a sick cat’s litter box. Then move here. Go home and clean up their own countries, install utilities, be honest, and make a country with good schools. It worked here. It will work there.

The bedrock foundation of our blessed country is belief in Jehovah GOD and His son Jesus, and yes, winning freedom, maintaining it, and USING that freedom to glorify GOD after the example of Jesus *works*.

Jehovah made the world; He kinda knows what works and what doesn’t work and He was never shy about writing those principles down so we could follow them to our own benefit. :-)

Our Founders very clearly said that this Republican form of government would only work with a moral, independent, hard-working Christian population. Citizens were mostly expected to police themselves. Now that we no longer do police ourselves (we have our beloved new hyper-government to tell us what size of soda to drink and which HealthCare plan to buy, and to protect us from most of the consequences of most of our immoral choices)...
and we have allowed Christianity to be browbeaten, shamed, ostracized, and maligned by the Left and the MSM...
and we have allowed significant percentages of the population to live moderate lifestyles parasitically off of the backs of those who do still work...
and we have disdained the notion of independence, up to the point that modern commentators openly suggest that we must stop considering our children to belong to us, and that they should belong to the government.

The nation that was created 230+ years ago no longer exists. We changed the Constitution, we changed our behaviors, we changed our focus, and we changed our goals. That Constitution was meant for a different population than the one that lives here today.

I work there - they sent out emails and auto dialed phone calls saying don’t come in to work today. No problem - it’s going to be 75 degrees out today.

The “wretched refuse” has washed up on our wide-open shores and is choking the USA.

It almost seems like these guys wanted to be chased.
