The media had everyone all worked up in a frenzy thinking bombs were going to start exploding everywhere around them at any moment. There were no undetonated bombs, and the evil people within out government behind this false flag knew it. This was nothing more than a dry run to test the imposition of martial law coming to every city in America. It went off without a hitch. There's nothing stopping them now. Why the hell do you think DHS has been buying thousands of armored vehicles, high-powered assault weapons and more than 1.6 billion rounds of ammunition. To sit on the shelf and collect dust? Gary R.

I do not believe the lockdown was justified, but I understand it. Boston-area law enforcement saw LAPD, LACSD and CHP excoriated for civilian casualties during the Dohrner manhunt and they did not want a repeat. I disagree with that strategy - the people in Boston wanted to help and in fact it was one of those civilians who pointed police toward Tsarnaev after the lockdown was lifted. A pack, not a herd. But then again Massachusetts has some of the most restrictive gun control laws in the country, which prevents people from defending themselves and obviously did nothing to keep guns away from Tsarnaev. The interviews I've seen out of Boston have had few complaints about the lockdown, likening it to ordering the city shut down during a major snowstorm, but I must admit those interviews may not be representative of the population as a whole so much as the journalists' bias.Jeff Coxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896694141148386531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-68051952313239565252013-04-22T20:57:32.583-05:002013-04-22T20:57:32.583-05:00I am not exactly how the police lockdown in Watert...I am not exactly how the police lockdown in Watertown differed from martial law. Heavily armed police or security forces were on the streets in groups of 2o or so, ordering residents at gunpoint to either stay inside their houses or to march outside (again at gunpoint) to be frisked. This is not the case of a hot pursuit where a suspect ran into a single building or shopping mall, this is a case of where residents of 10,000 houses or so were ordered around by swat teams whose principle goal seemed to be intimidation.Indy Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16296765358096901763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-33694251251799941232013-04-21T21:58:26.712-05:002013-04-21T21:58:26.712-05:00Jeff, Who cares what you think of Dan Rather?

Should we dismiss everything you say because of the reason for your firing by the state's Attorney General for making comments deemed to be terroristic in nature? Yes, he was given some bad docs--the handiwork of Karl Rove. Bush was booted out of the national guard becuase of a cocaine problem. He was arrested and put in a diversion program. I heard that straight from a prominent judge in Texas who knows the records were expunged to protect Bush. The national guard records were cauterized by Bush's people when he became governor. Karl Rove manufactured the fraudulent docs and had them leaked to Rather's source, who had seen the original docs before they were destroyed by Bush's people. <br /><br />If you don't know about the FBI's role in the first WTC bombing, you are clueless. It is a documented fact. It's not a conspiracy theory. <br /><br />Yeah, I know you're a big proponent of spending trillions of dollars on the manufactured War on Terror and the decimination of civil liberties that has gone along with it. The alleged bomber is a U.S. citizen who is accused of committing criminal acts on American soil. Drop you enemy combatant bullshit. Some people might have considered you an enemy combatant when you suggested firing on right to work protesters at the capitol in Madison, Wisconsin. Careful what you wish for, Jeff. Gary R.

I don't like it, but it was not martial law. Boston residents said it was akin to being told to stay home for a snowstorm.<br /><br />2. There are 2 rationales as to not reading Tsarnaev his Miranda rights. 1. Public safety exception, meaning he is needed to reveal other bombs and other members of the plot. 2. He is an unlawful enemy combatant under the Geneva Convention and is entitled to neither jury trial not civilian counsel. <br /><br />3. If you want us to believe a conspiracy theory about the 1993 WTC bombing, you need to come up with a better source than Dan Rather, whose use of fake evidence has earned some notoriety, to put it mildly.Jeff Coxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04896694141148386531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-57991202163857491102013-04-21T13:54:28.295-05:002013-04-21T13:54:28.295-05:00-Personally, I think of the Washington Post about ...-Personally, I think of the Washington Post about as respected as a tabloid. -and Dan Rather has NO credibility in my household.CircleCityScribehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12691157547732269477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-82982211874894009462013-04-21T07:55:54.381-05:002013-04-21T07:55:54.381-05:00The owner of that hijacked Mercedes -- arrested an...The owner of that hijacked Mercedes -- arrested and put into a police car naked, resembling the brothers and, I earlier read, had been reported missing for a month.
