Finally, a Clearer Picture of the Chaotic Shootout in Watertown Emerges
AtlanticWire ^ | April 24, 2013 | Adam Clark Estes

There's a lot we still don't know about what happened in Boston last week. But new details that surfaced on Wednesday night reveal some key details that stand to change the timeline of the final 24 hours of the manhunt dramatically. Among other revelations, police are now saying that they don't believe Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, the younger of the two brothers suspected of carrying out the attack, was armed when they opened fire on him Friday evening. In fact, authorities admit that the two brothers didn't quite have the small arsenal of weapons they thought they did — just one gun, a gun that wasn't anywhere near Dzhokhar when he was found in the boat after a shootout.

....That and welfare payments from the state of Massachusetts.

Supposedly, the wife (and doctor's daughter) worked 80 hour weeks as a home health aide. Admittedly, I don't know how that compares to welfare under the Regime.

I also recall reading somewhere that the payments ended when Joker and Speed Bump turned 18.

According to one report, a good friend had been killed, and the older brother became involved in religion shortly thereafter. I wonder what the circumstances of his friend’s death were?

Yet they spent weekends at her parents’ house in R.I. So she worked 16 hours a day the other 5 days? Gee, what a great mother (not!). This is another bogus story that simply doesn’t add up.

The friend was murdered in September 2011 and he had “turned” long before that, so I doubt that had anything to do with it. Google Brendan Mess for the details.

Supposedly, Speed Bump took care of the Little One (Zahara Tsarnaeva), while her mother was working. That is, when he wasn't making bombs.

Which of course raises the obvious question, where did they build the devices? Given Katy claims she first learned of the scheme from the news media.

The best answer I've seen is Joker's dorm room at UMass Dartmouth. But that seems a crowded venue for such a sensitive task.

ABC reported the brothers were shooting with automatic weapons. I am curious why the details about their firearms seems so obscure.

Tamerlin is being looked at as a possible suspect in the murder case, now. Not only was one of the victims a “friend” of his, but all three of the victims were JEWS. Who had their THROATS SLIT on Sept. 11. Unsolved. There’s a thread on it here at FR...

What’s funny is every word/report is being analyzed and autopsied...yet here in CT we still don’t have a police report about the Newtown slayings.

Well, they said it would take six months for the report to come out.

Of course, by then only eeevil Conservatives and gun nuts will be interested in what really happened, and the web will have been scrubbed of anything not easily dismissed as media error or conspiracy theory.

Yeppers. We’ll only get what fits the left agenda.

I get the sinking feeling that soon, we’ll all be tuned into a single radio station in the dead of night...called *Voice of America8 or *Radio Free Europe*.....broadcast from some secret, remote place.

People who knew the dead man and Tamerlan now believe Tamerlan was the killer.

Really, how could the bombs have cost?

Pressure cooker, powder from fireworks, nails and bbs from Home Depot?

These were not neutron bombs.

From the article cited here: **Law enforcement believes that the Tsarnaev brothers tried and failed to steal Collier’s gun after shooting him from behind, the first of several things that went wrong for the two young suspected terrorists that night.**

These people are conspiracy theorists. They are just waiting for the conspiracy to take shape.

Starting from the bombing with a very chaotic situation involving tens of thousands of people. Throw in a news media last week in an absolutely desperate frenzy for ANYTHING to post on their websites, and you get a lot of weird, irrelevant, bad, incorrect and confused timelines with varying info of varying accuracy out in the world.

Then add paranoid conspiracy theorists of the anti-Police, anti-Government, anti-Muslim, pro-Muslim, pro-gun, anti-gun on and on and these people desperately trying to shape a narrative (that is already riddled with inaccuracies anyway) to fit their ideological needs.

Then to top it all off you have the police and legal authorities trying to actually build a legal case against the remaining terrorist and anyone who may or may not have helped him, and therefore wanting to keep a lid on what goes out in public, especially the more accurate stuff...

...and you have for me the PERFECT STORM OF BULLSHIT that means I can no longer read anything online about this whole case.

Iknow who did the actual bombing, I’ll wait a few months to find out what else is known about why, how and who helped them. But the lunacy of people who want there to be an elaborate hoax somewhere in here, frankly scares me.

In using a nauseating liberal theme, rather than being a clever play on words, it is a simple matter of a liberal showing their ideological underwear to readers:
