- Two relatively faceless individuals were correctly identified (again, in detail) out of the thousands in attendance at the marathon and in a city with a population of ~4.5 million in its metropolitan area;

- The two individuals were located amongst those millions of people in an area of ~90 square miles;

- The two individuals were apprehended or killed while clearly armed to the teeth with various weapons capable of inflicting indiscriminate death and destruction; and

- All of this was accomplished with not a single scratch to any civilian and with only one additional death to law enforcement personnel.

... and we are not holding folks to a "high enough standard"?

All I can say is 'wow'. One way or the other if I learned anything this week it's that people will NEVER cease to amaze me.
