Who is dumb enough to think that The President opens his own mail? It seems like if you could make Ricin you'd be smart enough to know that it's not in any way going to affect Obama to mail him a Ricin laced letter. The same for Congress.

This is interesting to see since I know for a fact as I heard one of the officers asking where to take a guy so the FBI and state police could interview him. I also know they sent officers to Tufts to guard someone in the hospital that was a person of interest. I heard the radio traffic and a few minutes later the talking heads stated talking about police officers rushing in to Tufts.

The key terms are "custody", "suspect", "arrest", "detained" and "person of interest". I guess the FBI may be telling the truth but I know they have at least detained someone they thought was a suspect.

Disgusting!

A bunch of years ago there was a plane crash and I was involved in the rescue and recovery effort. A man was caught rifling the pockets of the deceased in the temporary morgue. After the scene was calmed down and all of the victims that could be transported were, he was found on the ground immediately adjacent to where the morgue had been, suffering from a compound fracture of the right lower arm, a dislocated shoulder, frostbite, and a whole bunch of other minor injuries, besides the manacles digging into his wrists. The speculation was that after he was arrested he wandered away and slipped on the ice.

It should happen in Boston.

Various photos show these two guys with and without backpacks. One of the blown up back packs seems to look a lot like the one the guy in black is carrying in one photo.

If it is these two guys Alex Jones would have broken the story first. He has a close up in his story plus other photos.

Alex Jones didn't "break" any news. Those photos were found, analyzed, and posted with details on some user supported web sites (reddit, imagur, 4chan) 24-48 hours before Alex Jones knew anything about them.

Thanks for correcting me. Very interesting new world out there.

Here is an analysis from imagur

I'm kind of surprised people have not yet identified all these folks. Its not like its the pixilated images you always see on the TV news of surveillance camera images. These photos are sharp and detailed.

The media should fact check prior to reporting anything, now shouldn't they.

But we all know that if they did that, they would:

1) have a bunch of empty space they couldn't fill.

2) have a much harder time keeping the public whipped up into a frenzy over the latest scare du jour.

3) not be able to cast as many aspersions against the targets of their hatred and bile (non-leftist collectivists)

and 4) not be able to destroy the lives of innocent people like Richard Jewell as easily.

I believe there are people on this board who are much more capable than I am of verifying/debunking these claims:

I'm really curious about your thoughts on this. Haven't seen anything on CNN about these guys. :???:

From the government's standpoint, the only thing worse that uninformed, irresponsible speculation in the press is accurate, uninformed, irresponsible speculation in the press.

The pressure to get the sensational on the air first must be excruciating. Since two two police beat reporters grabbed the gold ring, got credit for bringing down Nixon, won Pulitzer Prizes, became multimillionaire media darlings invited to all the poshest parties, journalism, if that's what we can call it, has gone right down the gutter.

The media types must have been like hound dogs closing in on the rabbits the last few days, running everywhere, braying like excited idiots in heat.

Eventually we may know what happened. Or it may be like the Grassy Knoll.
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

Absent any evidence to the contrary, I'd guess they were contracted do security work.

I don't know anything about "The Craft." However, I find it entirely plausible that there were military personnel or ex-military contractors there. What I'm going to have a hard time believing is that people like ex Navy Seals are going to have anything to do with staging a false-flag event or killing innocent Americans. Maybe it sounds corny, but people in Special Forces are true warriors with the true warrior spirit and true warriors don't murder innocent civilians, especially their own countrymen.
