I still prefer to have a trial first, even in cases where I think the suspect is guilty as hell.
It's what sets us apart form them. And it saves on embarrassing situations like this:

Also don't forget that until now, all we have are media reports.

I have to agree with another poster that there is MUCH more than laws and trials that set most of us apart from fanatic imbeciles like these bombers. I disagree that were it not for the rule of law we'd all be running a muck raining havoc on each other. The law prescribes punishment for those who violate, but does not prevent the violation.

My deepest condolences to those who suffered in this mindless and crazy Boston bombings.

I think i should wait until i hear further comments from authorities about this case. I hope we shall do, as it might be possible as well that we never hear the whole story as it really was.

From the news i saw that Russia has already given a helping hand to USA in the fight against terrorism. It is just i'm afraid that it will be Tsetniki people suffering some more, like they hadn't already suffered enough. Unlike Afganistan or Irak, they have no much oil, gas or strategic location so it's a forgotten war with a lot of dead innocent people. Orphans. Casual damages.

Now, thank to these two idiots, Tsetnik people will suffer some more in the name of the anti-terrorist laws.
Meanwhile we got some more cameras, authorities with unlimited power working above the law. What a wonderful world.

Wonderful world indeed.

You guys are a bit behind the ball...

They already confessed to the crimes, (the bombing and shooting the MIT cop) they both actually did when they jacked the guy's car and let him live.. Guilt is not in question hasn't been since that guy gave his statements..

The only question now is how the live one is charged

In Federal court they have 48 hours to question him under the public safety staute
as an enemy combatant they have over 30 days..

Either way he will end up in Federal court, the difference is that time period and possible appeal problems later down the road...


The pic of the live one standing behind that now dead 8 yo kid, after he placed the bomb and the smirk on his face, will get him the death penalty, of that there is no doubt...

i just saw that picture last night , with the boy , his sister ( who lost a limb ) and the backpack , and the guy walking behind him !! the mother was also injured badly and i had saw she had emergency brain surgery from shrapnel but i cant find it anywhere !

The slimeball who bought it in the gunfight got off easy IMO. There is no punishment our society can deliver that is harsh enough to cover what those guys did (or any terrorist for that matter).

I also feel for the people in Texas. Had this Boston bombing not dominated the news this week, their explosion (which was many orders of magnitude bigger and deadlier, though apparently accidental), would have garnered much more attention (though I don't know that that would have helped them any, to be honest). I don't think the media feeding frenzy ever does anybody much good, unless it brings in charitable aid, Red Cross donations, etc.

My heart goes out to these poor folks who were victims of this tragedy. God willing the mother of the slain boy will recover without brain damage. Even so, she will never get over the loss of the young man. How many lives have been seriously damaged by these two miscreants ?

Still, it is lucky they weren't more up on their game. On April 7 a suicide bomber killed 26 and injured many more in Iraq. We see these reports and they have become so routine we don't even take notice anymore. So many dead or maimed over the years since 9-11. Terrible state of affairs.

No doubt, death penalty? Don't be so confident.

Now the real work begins. They need to find out if this was an isolated event or a conspiracy and who else might be involved and what else might be coming. if this guy lives and agrees to spill the beans on others maybe preventing more they could give him a deal with life imprisonment. We don't know. Time will tell.

other then the 2 guys 1 / girl they brought in to ? from where the one alive lived they also took 3 people in from Maryland but it wasnt reported what for or if they were under arrest !!
besides if he gets the death penalty chances are after all the appeals he will live longer then most of us !
