“The Boston bombing provided the opportunity for the government to turn what should have been a police investigation into a military-style occupation of an American city,”


Thoughts?

I like Ron Paul, he's always on point.

Do you feel that the whole thing was handled wrong to capture them ?

I think this is a fine line. were they terrorists working with a group, or did they do it all on their own?

if the later, then it is a police matter. at this time no one knows, so it is better to go with the military until proven otherwise.

Thousands of militarized police and National Guard that go door to door pulling people out of their homes, sometimes at gun point (with out warrant or cause) is excessive to say the least. Some people said that the police were looking through drawers and small closets during the raids. That's abuse and excessive.

How do you feel MadMan?

As far as I know, and I could be 100% wrong here, they were (at the time) looking for 1 person and possibly more bombs.

Well i dont think you answered the question...However, I would dare paraphrase you would say No

Ok 2 wanted man, terrorists, the most wanted men in the country, even world, at the time and you feel searching house to house was wrong? I did see that a few people pulled from there homes. Yes at gun point. How else should they done that? Beg? Get on there knees and ask? Sometimes you really need to get real. When they clear a house for a raid all people are held until they can be cleared and identified. At such point they are asked to allow a search. I think the matter was handed fast and effectively. Searching closet’s is fine, if they went trough drawers that is another case. Both Ron and Rand are clowns! nuff said!

I can't say. Have ya'll had a chance to check this out?

Boston Bombers During Shootout: “We Didn’t Do It!”

I personally think they were involved but did not act alone. Kind of like Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols, both were guilty as sin but had assistance from the powers that be.
