One for the Citizens (Who solved the Boston bombing)

Before we get too far away from the Marathon bombing, it needs to be acknowledged that this was yet another incident in which the average American proved crucial.

It wasn't overweight and aging police Tac squads, lumbering around in their armor through a shut-down city, clumped together as perfect targets for an IED, crowded four to a doorway as they spoke to residents, with no sign of lookouts or adequate cover. The Boston PD was lucky they were not up against trained terrorists. A couple of Quds or Hezb'allah operatives and the casualty list would have been much higher. The department's methods need to be thoroughly overhauled.

It wasn't the FBI, who succeeded in overlooking, for years on end, the fact that not only were the boys terror suspects, but also Mom, their uncles, aunts, and cousins, Genghis the dog and Kublai the cat, and half the people in their home village, including the guy that cleans the mosque. This marks something of a royal flush or bases-loaded home run in incompetent intelligence, something that required actual skill and will be difficult to surpass. We can top this off with the sudden Mirandizing of Dzhokhar just as FBI questioning was starting to get answers. Reports...

This course of events has become commonplace since this conflict broke out in 2001. Flight 93, the Richard Reid "shoe-bomber" incident, the 2009 Detroit pantybomber incident, and the attempted Times Square bombing were all forestalled by average citizens intervening at the crucial moment. While the FBI, along with various local police forces such as the NYPD, have broken up a number of conspiracies before they went into action, they have done less well with attacks in progress. At the narrow passage, when it's one-on-one against the terrorists, it is American citizens who take point...

Try telling that to the TSA.

So, the issue is, as it has been for some 1,400 years is ISLAM!

Islam is antithetical to America.

Islam is irreconcilable with America.

Islam is a societal cancer.

Radiation is the answer.

The first war the newly founded United States fought was against mulism pirates.

We didn’t eliminate the threat then.

[Shery]

This arrogant administration will not allow that 9/11/12 was another terrorist attack, aimed at letting both it and the American people know that they are not finished with us. Who knows what else is in store for us? This admin seems to desire having the chaos in order to restrain Americans, put us under martial law, take control of us in every way he deems necessary! If ANY democrats are truly against anarchy, tyranny, loss of all rights, they need to stand NOW! They need to join us in this fight! They will also be affected by this dictator.

LOL — thanks for posting that.

It’s a double-edged sword. To paraphrase Winston Churchill, the blogosphere will find the right bad guy — after they’ve found all the wrong ones.

[OddLane]

No problem.

[Trailerpark Badass]

The other main lesson is that the friends of these home grown terrorists, even if not ambitious enough in their hate to act themselves, will fail to report and even actively conceal their activities.

We have a true fifth column in our midst, thanks to our Federal government.

These people will not be dislodged, they will not leave on their own (as long as the freebies keep coming), and they will not assimilate.

My son and daughter will be fighting these people and their children.

Doubtlessly, because Jefferson did not have ‘the Football’. If he had the military advantage then which we have now - I suggest Islam would have been extirpated.

Given the long history of Islam, I am sure they will soon force us to play “Cowboys & Muslims”.

Prediction: Cowboys & Muslims will be a video game for us. Cowboys & Muslims will be the end of Islam for them.

Law Enforcement Did a Remarkable Job!

Of screwing up everything they possibly could!

They had an unarmed, scared, wounded teenage boy totally surrounded by the top crack paramilitary police.
The FBI, DHS, ATF, Local Police, S.W.A.T. Teams, State Troopers and even University Police had their weapons trained on the terrified punk.
They were equipped with state-of-the art military assault rifles, anti-ballistic uniforms, armored vehicles, urban tanks, Blackhawk helicopters equipped with FLIR technology.

Then the inept boy just got into a car and drove away and they could not find him...

Then the comedy turned into a tragedy.
The clueless, overweight, incompetent lawmen and professional donut-munchers force marched innocent citizens from their homes at the point of a gun.

This nonsense finally stopped when: A CITIZEN found him. Outside of the perimeter established by the idiot police forces.

But it still wasn't over.

The trigger-happy lawmen shot up half the neighborhood - with high powered assault rifles. In a neighborhood of WOODEN homes, where an AR-15 round could go through several houses. The scared little soldiers thought that they had been shot at by the mean terrorists, so shot up private property unnecessarily when all they had to do was grab the punk they let get away in the first place.

Hundreds, if not thousands of heavily armed paramilitary police chasing one stupid unarmed boy and this is what they have to show us?
Disgraceful.

"Which way did he go, which way did he go?"

The FBI in action:

The government will protect and save us...

More inconvenient facts we learn from the foreign press:

- Tamerlan was actually killed by his brother, who ran him over; not the police.
- It appears that the university cop was killed by trigger happy cops shooting up whatever moved in a case of 'friendly fire'
- "Joker" was found outside of their perimeter by a citizen. He was unarmed.

——— 9/11/12 was another terrorist attack——

It was not. It was a well planed and executed assault. It was another action in an ongoing war. The concept of terrorists must be adjusted to include enemy warrior forces.

The leftists abhor war and believe it is no more. They are therefore powerless to defeat an enemy that can not exist.

The leftist Americans are the real enemy of America

Brilliant!!

[CAluvdubya]

Give them a break.....They were playing "dress-up"! They hadn't had a chance to put on all their new gear and they wanted to see how it all worked and if it fit!/s

[Sweet_Sunflower29]

Very funny!
