First of all, SHUT UP

Secondly, I didnt impart my thoughts well enough.

I dont blame someone for questioning everything. Doesnt mean EVERYthing is for sure a conspiracy. But when you do that sometimes you slide down the slippery slope to thinking everything is a set up.


And I think history pretty much bares out that Power and Government are usually corrupt on some level, so Id have to disagree with your "just as bad" take.

Although, again, I dont condone thinking EVERYTHING is a govt conspiracy.

lot's of police sirens going off in the loop right now

Give them credit. They had it first. New York Post just leaked the photo from the FBI distribution to its agencies across the country.

Thanks for the "answer", Q-bro...

The Boston Bombing Witch Hunt Bags Another Innocent Kid

On Monday, the New York Post doggedly stuck to its claim that 12 were killed in the Boston Marathon bombings. On Tuesday, CNN (among others) reported that a suspect had been arrested, before walking that all the way back. Today, the Post wrests back the "what the fuck are you doing?" crown by putting two "potential suspects" on the cover of the newspaper. They are most assuredly innocent.

The pair show up in multiple photos of the finish line. They carry large bags. They are dark-skinned. This was enough for internet sleuths to peg them as suspicious. (They show up here, in Gawker's rundown of "suspects" identified by crowdsourcing on Reddit and 4chan.) And that was apparently enough for the Post to run with its front-page story today, claiming investigators are circulating photos of the two. (The photo on the paper's cover is a cropped and zoomed-in version of the one taken by Ben Levine, which appeared on Deadspin on Tuesday.)

But maybe there was a reason for them to be at the marathon, wearing track jackets and carrying bags: they're runners.

The kid in the blue jacket is a middle-distance runner at Revere High School. Last week he ran the two-mile in 11:20. Here he is, training either for global jihad or a track meet:

Yesterday he caught wind that his name and social media profiles were being circulated online, and he did what any teenager would do: He panicked. He made his Facebook timeline private, and in one message now no longer visible, he announced he was going to clear his name.

Going to the court rightnow!! Shit is real. But u will see guys I'm did not do anything
(We're not naming the guy or linking to his Facebook page, a pointless courtesy, but we figured we should extend it in this instance.)

Witch hunts end as quickly as they begin. Today on CBS This Morning, John Miller specifically said these two are not the suspects the FBI is seeking. This Boston Globe story sheds more light on the images authorities are using to track down the suspects, and their description makes clear it's not a high schooler and his friend:


The official said that the two suspects were seen separately on videotape — one at each of the two bombing sites, which are located about a block apart.

There's also the matter that his bag isn't even the same color as the one recovered from the scene.

Reddit is panicking too. In the "FindBostonBombers" subreddit, the top post tells users to stop spreading the images of these two, and urges people to delete anything already posted that identifies them.

(The second-top post reads, "Media outlets, please stop making the images of potential suspects go viral, then blaming this small subreddit for it.")

But that's the internet, with some degree of anonymity and expectation for inaccuracy. How will the Post explain away its front cover ("Bag Men"), and the top story still there on the website ("Men in Sights")? Presumably authorities distributed many photos of people with large backpacks and duffel bags. How did these two end up with their brown faces splashed all over the world? Do we even need to ask?

Teen: I Am Not the Boston Marathon Bomber

By SHAHRIAR RAHMANZADEH, JENNIFER LEONG, SANTINA LEUCI and RHONDA SCHWARTZ

April 18, 2013
The teenage boy authorities once investigated as possibly being connected to the Boston Marathon bombing told ABC News today he was shocked to see his face pop up on television and all over social media.

Salah Barhoun, 17, said he went to the police yesterday to clear his name after he found himself tagged in pictures online. He had just gone to watch the race, he said, but soon after the explosions, he was singled out by internet sleuths as looking suspicious. Federal authorities passed around images of Barhoun, attempting to learn more information about him, sources told ABC News.

Today The New York Post ran a story featuring a picture of Barhoun circled in red, but said there was not enough evidence tying him to the deadly crime to make an arrest.

ABC News producers found Barhoun through social media and spoke to him today at his home. He said he had actually wanted to run the race and when he couldn't, decided to watch.

Barhoun's younger brother, who declined to be identified, said that it made his mother "sick and upset" that her son had been connected to the tragedy."

"It made her think he had done something wrong," the teen's younger brother said. "My brother is not the bomber."

Way to go internet.

Way to go FBI for ASKING people for help.

You want it....You got it.

Did they say "Take to the internet, oh young vigilatnes"? Or did they ask for help?

To me, if the FBI asks for "help", I would take that as meaning work directly with them since they have a shit load of stuff already. Like help them fill in the blanks. Calling people suspects is irresponsible...

I guess they asked the wrong society

Fucking Americans...

I'd be curious to see the statement they released asking for help. It's hard to believe that they would have worded it in a way that lead people to believe they should take matters into their own hands. They seem to be against that sort of things in every other instance. It would be strange for them to just switch it up all of a sudden.

Dont ask the crazy ass public for help hoping they'll contain their crazy in THIS instance. Its a bad idea.

Do you think it was realisitic to ask for pictures and help and NOT have it go horribly wrong?

I could see you blaming 4chan if the Feds didn't think they were even suspicious. Fact is, the FBI brought them in for questioning. That's how crimes are solved.


Again, tip of the cap to the 4chan peeps. Said all along, they may not solve the case, but they did a good job bringing together some suspects.



And yes, I understand the argument that making them public sucks since they didn't do anything. Oh well.
