So why target a US event like the Marathon?
They are the ones that shot all those school kids. Beslan school hostage crisis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Muslim Arab, case close.
I'm glad we aren't looking for an Arab because we wouldn't find him...

I'm surprised you didn't put a sepia filter on the photo to really get your agenda across.

Exactly! There is no way to tell whether the immigrant is a killer in waiting, so the door needs to be slammed shut. Anyway, we get all the cheap muscle we need from Mexico (Christian) and the brains we need from India (peaceful Hindus and Sikhs) so we don't need to be importing potential terrorists from the Middle East.

Might be. They found another bomb in Boston, so there may be an accomplice(s).

once again....I don't care who you are, I'm not going to assume your a terrorist...but if you come to America, get your citizenship and become a working member of your community, period. Otherwise, everything else becomes chaotic....

yanno, that is the whole problem with this country today, we've become corrupt...we don't pay attention to rules, regulations and laws, everyone now thinks they are entitled, b/c they have a special needs situation...no, it's black or white, and you don't deviate from the law....there is no excuse....period.
Is this supposed to be some sort of cure-all?

The older brother had LEGAL residency.

You think it's chasing him like final destination?

And they used handguns to kill and wound people, so that will have the anti gun folks reason to celebrate. Right wingers can point to our lowered standards of immigration as the cause of the harm they caused.
I hope we get the baby faced one alive and he gets a good taste of our prison system. No matter how many line up to defend him, he's going to rot in prison but he'll be VERY popular.
Thats about the only reason I can think of to spare him the death penalty, his life being a living hell.
I also hope they catch him alive and there is an early and quick trial.

I can't imagine anyone stepping up to defend him, other than the lawyer who will be paid to do that. Other than his lawyer, I would be wary of anyone who attempts to use excuses to "defend" him.

Now, the question for you: The Chechen brothers attack a marathon for what purpose?


What has America sown in Chechnya?


Or are disaffected boy-men allowed to speak for all of the Islamic world?
Only they know why they hit a marathon. Who said their lack of love for the US came when they were young lads in Chechnya? Odds are they would really have no inkling about the world in that way at that age. They would probably be too busy being kids. All of this at this point is speculation, but of course being a muslim in America one would imagine and as others have said in the media is not easy, especially after 9/11. Throw in them being white and one could surmise some of the things they've heard or been directed at them and their beliefs. Does it mean blow up a marathon, no, but being outcasts is something more than plausible. Odds are the stronger (mentally) of the brothers snapped and convinced the tag along brother to go along with his outrageous plan.
