Re: Update: Second Boston Marathon Suspect Captured
I am sorry, let me get this straight ... It has been less than seven days since explosions caused death and injury at a popular open air sporting event that attracts people from all over the world and, in that time:
- The explosive devices causing the event were identified in detail; - 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"? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
