It's official:
Some more from the WSJ:
Authorities captured a 19-year-old college student suspected in the deadly Boston Marathon bombings after one of the biggest manhunts in U.S. history paralyzed an entire metropolis.
Police and Federal Bureau of Investigation agents converged on a house in the Boston suburb of Watertown late Friday, and apprehended Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, one of two brothers alleged to have exploded two homemade bombs in downtown Boston, killing three people and injuring more than 175. Images of the suspect were shown all day on national TV and online and online.
Authorities halted public transportation, closed schools and advised residents to stay locked indoors for much of Friday during the manhunt.
Mr. Tsarnaev had escaped capture after leaving behind his older brother, 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who was killed in a firefight with police early Friday. The brothers, carrying an arsenal of explosives, fired guns and threw pipe bombs in the fight after an overnight crime spree that left dead an officer of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, authorities said. The Federal Bureau of Investigation had interviewed Tamerlan Tsarnaev in 2011 at the request of the Russian government, but it found no suspicious evidence and closed the matter, a U.S. official said.

...For now.
And now back to your regularly scheduled rapes, murders and armed robberies.
Alive and pumped full of drugs.
Of course. He got his dope directly from the spooks in Afghanistan.
Mission accomplished... we got white hat.
May the farce continue....
L.A. Police: "Amateurs".
"Justice has won." So much for that whole presumption of innocence thing.
Does it get any cornier? "CAPTURED!!! The hunt is over. The search is done. The terror is over. And justice has won. Suspect in custody"
Tomorow is 4/20. History says all the nuts come out tomorrow.
Light em up.
Everyone high five with their AR-15's and bumb black stazi helmets.
House or Cinema?
At least they got it all wrapped up in time for the network infotainers to kick back and enjoy the weekend.
Listening to ZH live feed -- they just explained why Miranda warnings were not given because it is a "national security issue." Thus, an exception applies.
He's 19. Even if he did what they say he did, he was not a threat to fucking national security. This is insane.
Did you hear Ortiz throw holdren under the bus as to whether the kid lives or dies? It was on the live tv. She said the attorney general of DOJ would decide capital punishment..
I'm not sure there was a bus. More like a platter. But it doesn't matter because there is a .1% chance this kid lives to see prosecution. They have said over and over that he's seriously injured. If he lives, there will be a reason and it will involve federal death penalty prosecution to de-wimpify Holder.
couldn't get edit in time, should read Holder, srry.
Listening to ZH live feed: "well done Mr. President and law enforcement. Great job. The crowds are cheering." It's like the end of Star Wars. Who is the wookie?
All we're missing is the bread.
So true. And thank you for not going obvoius with Michelle = Wookie getting medal.
Let's see. He arrived in the states when he was 8. Went to a first class high school and got good grades. Got a scholarship from the city to go to college. Lives in a dorm with other kids. Smokes dope, goes to parties, plays soccer a lot. Has a lot of friends and none of them thinks he could do something like this. He's 19 years old. Obviously, a terrorist. We're just going to have to police and surveil our youngsters to a much greater degree in the future, so nothing like this can ever happen again.
As if you really have to ask who the wookie is. ;-)
Attacking the crowd and tail end runners in a marathon... killing an innocent kid, for chri-sakes.
Something really f*ckin' weird about this whole thing.
People in small town America are disgusted by the killing of [white] kids. They will literally give up all freedoms if the evil people from former Soviet Union republics kill kids. Point police state.
Cui bono...? 2000 years old and still going strong.
Very fucking weird.
Kids, half assed bombs with a military like response. Full-on black outfits, armored tank like vehicles, etc.
WTF is really going on here?
Weird through and through... Like I'm watching Super 8 or something.
mabye more like a snuff film on HDTV
Just a small war for now. The US has been blowing the shit out of a ton of people to include many children. What, do Americans think that it could not happen here? What goes around comes around. Wait until someone hits a mall. It will happen and then lets see what happens to retail sales. Collateral damage upon the US. It's a bitch when it comes back to bite you. Thank you very much.....
I would like to congratulate the Keystone Cops for their remarkable police work. The billions of dollars spent on the military, Feds, state & local forces along with the billions spent on the survelliance, snooping, unwarranted wiretaps & unconstitutional searches really paid off in the pre and post attack in Boston. We can all feel better now that the 19 year old attacker is in custody as the thousands of officers can hold off their door to door searches & martial law lockdown of the entire city. Let's all cheer now for the imminent expansion of the police state, cameras on every street corner, executive orders and unconstitutional laws being passed by our great political leaders. "I'm proud to be an Amercian, where at least I know I'm free."
Achievement Unlocked!!
I know many of you wonder why there is such an absurd manhunt....honestly, the key to that lies in the overtime all these clowns have been earning all week. It will be a huge payroll week for the Boston PD as well as Massachusetts State Police, Federal Agencies, etc...
I'd love a Public Information Act to see this weeks Police payroll out of Boston.
Yeah, it's a poem! ABCBCD rhyme scheme.
CAPTURED!!!
The hunt is over.
The search is done.
The terror is over.
And justice has won.
Who thought that up?
How does this story relate to finance or economics?
Tyler going after the Drudge report crowd..??
It'll affect the sequestration as a demonstration of what is needed to keep all of us safe.
US budgets are relevant to finances, NO?
@Million
This event fuelled a non-event scare, where, a suspected [Honda Test Driver] Terrorist was show-casing a prototype Honda iED with optional suicide vest in the NY region. Since Apple modernised the humble IED into the iED with touch screen detonation apps, drop-down or scrolling delay timing options and their famous blue tooth suicide vest, bombing has never been the same. In this way, Apple revolutionised the suicidal terrorist industry at a time where it was becoming 'Old Hat'. Apple iED is going to be a big seller in the Middle East and these sales are expected to boost the US economy; trickling down to the average Joe Shmo. Then there's the knock-on sales of Drones to hunt down those new Apple iEDs in circulation.
This is a big boost to the US economy....bombs aren't just wires and chemicals ya know.
Ben and Apple aim to boost IPO through technology expansions within industries we love, such as Terrorism. I hear excited rumblings of a product called iAim (Apples' Aim Point for assault weapons), where psychopaths can track the iPhones, iPads etc of their victims in school buildings via a color LCD display retro-fitted to a wide selection of popular ARs, thus dramatically increasing their kills. But here's the really sweet part; using the expanded bandwidth capacity of 4G, these kills are all live streamed videoed directly to YouTube with apps linking rampage statistics such as ammo remaining, kills etc to Twitter live feed updates and even video stills of Pink Mist Head Shots to FaceBook; satisfying the most demanding fan. Now you can watch Terror from the comfort of your iDevice at the Pub with mates, at home on the couch or even while on a hot date! It's a brave new world. Like John says, "you can practically taste the grey matter".
This is all exciting stuff, but Apple has played down the excitement claiming it was simple a logical extension of technology and what the American public really want....a real life Grand Theft Auto.
There's no surprise that Honda jumped into the mix real quick; signing a first year exclusivity contract on all Apple iKill products, since the Japanese economy looks like a toilet bowl just after a Battalion of Indian Soldiers have returned from an 8 weeks field exercise eating nothing but curried dog.
You don't belong here....Next stupid question?
Test-run for Marshall Law. Determination as to whether the sheeple will in fact trust the government-imposed military state that will be coming to a neighborhood near you sans dollar collapse.
Seems the test was a success - metro area of 4 million was shut down for a man-hunt over a 19-year old wounded (supposed) bomber.
Yeah, they might want to go watch a few episodes of 48-Hours to see how to catch a murder without acting like thugs, terrorizing neighborhoods, and strip searching grannies and three year olds.
5.000 members of alphabet agencies for a 19 yr old crockpot bomber , & they think they'll get our gun's,,,
lol...no shit.
But I wonder how it would work in Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri...or Florida where we're not so complacent & docile?
Stay tuned boppers ;-)
This would have been like an easter egg hunt in Texas I imagine.
Ted Bundy didn't get far once he got noticed in north Fla ;-)
Based on how the older one dressed (euro trash) he would have fit in near me very easily.
http://www.bravotv.com/princesses-long-island/season-1/videos/these-princesses-know-what-they-want
Yes you will vomit.
they were pretty much exactly like that 25 years ago too
I lived and worked on the Island for 3 years. The worst place I ever lived and that includes New Jersey. Out west now.
"Ted Bundy didn't get far once he got noticed in north Fla ;-)"
He preyed upon multiple victims. He was a killer of many. And yet he was not a "national security" issue, was he?
What the fuck are you talking about, national security? The nineteen year old Chechen or Bundy? Neither was.
It didn't take armored humvees, locking down thousands in their homes or massive amounts of paranoia and fiscal waste to snare Bundy.
And we didn't pussy foot around with the bastard either, we killed the fucker in somewhat "legal" record time.
What are you a transplant? You can't be a native.
Moved here from [bad place of the moment] ;(
Well, just don't try to turn it into the place you moved from.
I wonder how many Bostonians sitting indoors today said "I wish I had a gun"?
Texas.... no such problem.
For fuck's sake, I am in favor of everyone having a gun or 100 guns if they want (it was once a free country), but how is this relevant? He was hiding in a fucking BOAT in someone's backyard and there were 1000 men in blue to corral him. The 1000 men in blue probably would have taken your gun and detained you if you were unlucky enough to have him hide out in your backyard boat. And you would not be reading this because you'd be in a cell as a person of interest.
It looks to me like most Bostoners are having an orgasm right now, and they absolutely loved the Martial Law today. Though I've always been an urbanite, I'm starting to think cities are a disease. The urban types are cumming their pants about martial law. It's a weird sexual ecstasy going on right now.
Positively titillating.
pods
On the bright side, it will be those same urban centers suffering the worst effects of them getting what they want.
The economic impact of the Boston Marathon bomb suspect manhunt could run into the billions of dollars, according to one expert, as a million city residents were stuck at home, stores were shuttered and public transit ground to a halt.
Boston businesses were advised to remain closed, city employees were told to stay home or remain in place at work, vehicular traffic was limited and travel into the city via Amtrak and discount bus lines was suspended.

Not including the psychological effects.

Thank you. What ridiculous overkill. They closed the entire MBTA, the entire commuter train and subway system while going after this one guy! You've got trains that run about 25 miles north, about 25 or so miles south and 40 miles west of Boston and they were all shut down to chase after one freaking guy! Mind you, the police screwed up in ever letting the guy get away from the location where they had a gunfight with him and his brother. What happens if they're not sure of the whereabouts of two or three guys next time? Do New Hampshire and Rhode Island have to shut down, too? Ridiculous overkill. And what is it that actual terrorists want? They want to change your life, they want to force you to live always accounting for them. Mission accomplished. You had people living in towns 40 miles away from where the kid was lost by the police and where they finally picked him up who couldn't take the train to work as they usually did because . . . ? Because what? If you're going to tell people 40 miles away that they can't do anything you might as well shut the whole freaking state down. Sadly, the police are going to regard their conduct here as 100% good.
Wait until they reveal the 'Ron Paul' campaign material in their homes and standing accounts at APMEX. Throw in a couple of NRA membership cards.
Please get back to self-sucking the smegma off your glans.
This has more to do with the future economy of the U.S. than any analysis of Central bank comments or gold price fluctuations. BTW, as I have observed your comments over the last eight months I feel as though you don't really like it here so why don't you go away. Huffington Post maybe?.
""Justice has won." So much for that whole presumption of innocence thing."
who needs lawyers, judges and courts these days... those are barbaric traditions.
Good God...look at all the people running under gun cover in the pics here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2311443/Boston-bomb-suspect-custody--Dzokhar-Tsarnaev-hunted-SWAT-teams-police-kill-boxer-brother-Tamerlan-running-gun-battle.html
Half the town was terrorized. At least most of the cops have their fingers off the triggers. The faces of the people are sobering to say the least.
the whole boat thing was a little too much for me if u know what i mean. Whats next week bring?
Everyone outside of US are looking at this and asking Q's like:
Armed police, Entire Army on the ground, helicopters, tanks,
city completely shut down. "Everyone stay home!" "No open doors for
everyone".. Are you guys dreaming? WTF? 19 y.o kid..
Billions $$$ spend on what?
It's Pentagon and LHS show, a.k.a "Don't cut our budgets.." Anthrax
Letters AGAIN, Obama get Anthrax letter?????? Give me a f* break and
change scenario at least.
Who is the writer of those scripts? That's the real question.
'
theres a whole bunch of disney writers at the top if u know what i mean
What a total mindfuck. It's best if no one has guns. If no one has guns we will all be safer. Oh wait a bad guy has guns! A bad guy has guns! Hide under your desk! Lock your doors! Get under the couch! A bad guy has guns and you have no guns! You are completely helpless!
Not if you have a desk drawer full of DHS approved SISSORS.
Sissors, the feel good defensive weapon.
(Just think, if you're facing an active shooter, at least you can slit your own throat before he gets to you.)
(Like the old western movies where the women were encourage to shoot themselves with the last bullet to save themselves from being ravaged by a savage)
All is not lost... Grab some scissors.
edit. I need MOAR beer.
I need to watch "Wag the Dog" again. Good ole Shoe . . .
And here come more $200k/year pension deals for the unions.
Someone on the scanner right after the announcement of his capture said, "Let's get a contract, it's contract time."
Due to sequester, scripts had to be recycled.
Now that that is over, Obama can come on the air and claim credit for using his judo on Suspect#2 and forcing him to tap out.
Let me know when they capture Corzine! On that day we will be starting to go in the right direction.
+1000.
Water board - water board......
Let's see if he admits to shooting Lincoln!!!
Next will come 'an accident.'
just had one in a boat
It's like Lee Harvey Oswald survived the shots from Jack Ruby.
FBI following the older brother for at least a year.
Police violating numerous peoples' constitutional rights.
Numerous police and police dogs are incapable of doing the work of a lone security guard (Richard Jewel).
That's some fine police work there, Lou.
I hope the owner wasn't storing any PM's in that boat and was planning on having a boating accident this weekend.
No slip for you!
I am a members of ze Tee Partee
lol...you can always tell its us. We came here through chained immigration, drive around in new Mercedes & Camaro's and in our off-time skulk through public venues and drop off explosives and then car jack people with coexist bumper stickers.
Yep...lol.
No way would a tea party guy drive a Camaro. They hate government motors, and only drive Hummers. Yes, I know. And no, he's not going to be ID'd as Tea Party. Too obvious. The better narrative from their perspective is Islamic terrorism. People in Iowa won't vote for politicians to take their guns or pressure cookers because of Tea Partiers. But if Islamofascists like either/or, take 'em. Thank you for preserving my freedom by checking my pressure cooker at the tailgate.
Dude, you're really speaking from the Dark Side of The Force. I can just see you and Emperor Palpitine making it real.
Thanks, dad. I'd give you a hand, but....
"Today, I ordered a round-up of all TP members, who, as you all know, are celebrating Hitlers's Birthday. Not only that, but these evil people are demanding their government work for Them! The audacity!

---F Marshall Davis, Jr.
shame on the sheeple of boston who hid in their houses all day long. this dog and pony show was just a dress rehearsal.
America lost more of her Soul today.
Yeah but it was a prelude for more to come. They are taking us down the path here.
"shame on the sheeple of boston who hid in their houses all day long."
In some parts of the country they'd all be out looking for him.
You are what's wrong. Seriously.
WTF is wrong with you???? He's right. You really think people in Texas would be cowering in their homes??? Shit we'd all be locked and loaded.
See Waco. And if you think that's a Blue Team issue, you are a bigger idiot than you appear by your writing (if that's possible).
If they hadn't let those babies outta detention when they did the "authorities" would've never found that kid.
It was a citizen that made the discovery.
good thing is if he gets obamacare in the hospital, he's as good as dead.
Thank God they caught their patsy.
I love the fact this quote from the Beantown PD:
"CAPTURED!!! The hunt is over. The search is done. The terror is over. And justice has won. Suspect in custody."
GOOD FOR YOU, BOSTON PD!
It only took hundreds of you, with equipment, helicoptors, dogs, FLIR, machine guns, and every other piece of gear, to capture a 19 year old kid.
Yeah, but he was hiding in a boat.
Probably hoping to have a boating accident either this Saturday or Sunday.
It's the Israelie way to fight
Yeah, they had all that manpower and ordinance but they couldn't find him.
It was a guy checking on his boat in his back yard who found him. So much for the professionalism of the FBI, Homeland Security, SWAT teams etc. One old man going out to check on his boat found the guy after they couldn't despite ridiculously closing down the entire metro Boston commuter train system.
And we get to pay for that freak show.
Fuck me Rita this is real:
http://www.mzv.cz/washington/en/czech_u_s_relations/news/statement_of_the_ambassador_of_the_czech.html
Statement of the Ambassador of the Czech Republic on the Boston terrorist attack19.04.2013 / 21:27
As many I was deeply shocked by the tragedy that occurred in Boston earlier this month. It was a stark reminder of the fact that any of us could be a victim of senseless violence anywhere at any moment.
As more information on the origin of the alleged perpetrators is coming to light, I am concerned to note in the social media a most unfortunate misunderstanding in this respect. The Czech Republic and Chechnya are two very different entities - the Czech Republic is a Central European country; Chechnya is a part of the Russian Federation.
As the President of the Czech Republic Miloš Zeman noted in his message to President Obama, the Czech Republic is an active and reliable partner of the United States in the fight against terrorism. We are determined to stand side by side with our allies in this respect, there is no doubt about that.
Petr Gandalovi?
Ambassador of the Czech Republic
Maybe people should try to figure things out from more than a hashtag.
Even the hash in hashtag can't explain that one.
Wow, just wow.
I can appreciate his concern. Some 30% of high school seniors can not find California on a map of the United States, so confusing the Czechs with the Chechns is not so far fetched.
Czech models are pretty hot. I have no idea if Chechnya even has electricity yet. /humor
We don't need them to be able to find California on map as long as they know how to die in some foreign war in some shit hole of a foreign country.
Maybe O doesn't know the Czech Republic from Chechnya
He don't know shiite from shinola so it's entirely possible that he can't find a heavily islamic region of Russia.
This is on every news source around.
Not what I come here for.
Can ZH put some kind of filter on that I can click so I can stay on markets, the economy and the REAL problems that we are facing.
I know it's Bean Town and all. Feel for them...but I think Tyler is getting distracted.
Yeah...the real problems...martial law test runs can be so distracting.
I for one, welcome Tyler's coverage.
State Tyranny directly affects markets.
HE HAS TO DIE.....HE KNOWS THE TRUTH...
Uh oh, who went off script!
Don't worry there'll be a new script up and running in a few weeks. I'm loading up on popcorn this weekend.
It pays to be a prepper.
Yea!!Boy in boat alive and in custody now. Let interrogation begin
In a boat? Maybe he was trying to hide his PM's stash before he got caught.
Fuck me, they milked that.
All according to plan Comrade...
Tell me the plan dude? What was the real plan? Any thoughts?
The commies are setting up a war between the muzzies and the West, but this time it will be bigger than anything seen in the last 1000 years. The muzzies are the patsy that give the commies the opportunity to install a world police state to deal with the violent uprisings when muzzies go jihad in every country on earth. The sheeple will meet the new tyranny with thunderous applause.
So i don’t get it? Didn't Obama have a secret meeting with the Saudi (muzzie) head of intelligence and deport a (muzzie) suspect or something? What about the police guy who owned the house 10 years ago? What about the guys at the marathon with the camouflage tutu's on? Did the CIA arrest Alex Jones to interrogate him about his high level mole? This is too many stones unturned.
"excellent job media people. can't wait for next Friday night." seriously though..."i'm glad they got the 19 year old kid out alive" (hopefully.) every one of these people is VERY valuable...and hopefully he'll come clean to the best of his ability.
What does this mean for the 'indefinent detention' aspect of NDAA! American Citizen + terrorist.
First test case
What would Lindsey say?
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/04/19/lindsey-graham-obama-should-hold-bombing-suspect-as-enemy-combatant/
What a shocker........
Fuck you, Lindsey, you're as big a piece of shit as Schmuck Schumer or Swinstein.
Now, now, Miss Graham just wants a toyboy.
Tool. You folks in SC need to dump that fag.
What a shock that a fire was involved. One guy versus how many hundreds of blue and a fire starts? Odds that he lives more than 48 hours?
Pretty low. Dispite a valiant, nearly heroic, effort by doctors and surgeons to save him, the wounds he inflicted upon himself with an explosive device overcame him, and he died XX hours and XXX minutes after being taken into custody.
Jack Ruby will rise from the dead to inflict the fatal shot if necessary.
I disagree guys. They WILL keep him alive to question him about terror links, esp. re his brother. The FBI is super thorough.
What if he says under pentathol "They told me the bombs were duds"?
No way. The entrapment program catches terrorists BEFORE they blow shit up, not after. The narrative will be that if they had just a little more security power, they would have stopped him. Drudge is already saying they got him from thermal imaging technology. We all need to be thermal imaged. For our safety. And for her pleasure.
damn right. Trojan horse for face recognition and a chip in your ass will be approved in the next bill that takes place during the next big fkin thing that we are all glued to.
Does the chip vibrate? Just saying that would be a selling point for the Wall Street crowd and they make policy, so.....
<<Does the chip vibrate? >>
No, how sick are you? They don't vibrate but they are "BOGO"
Buy one chip, get 2 gerbils free!
No, he'll survive. They need another Timothy McVeigh moment. Remember when they frog marched McVeigh out the door and all the paid participants booed him.
When they frog march this guy out, they'll have all of America rushing to give up their guns and right to free speech.
But, not to worry, we can still rally around the 16th Amendment.
He bought his pressure cooker at a home show. No background checks.
He'll have to live past Saturday.
Don't want him to die on Hitler's birthday.
The entrapment program was an epic fail in the first World Trade Center bombing then...that could NEVER happen again!
"We were hired to play a role in the bomb drills occuring concurrently and we were only dropping the dummy bombs they gave us to see if law enforcement could find them."
The FBI is super thorough.
so said J.Edgar to Clyde in the bathroom stall of Mr. Lansky's restaurant.
However, the FBI where able to get him to tell us valuable information on his backers and his motives. Holder holds press conference....
... I guess they have several statements in draft form for various scenarios already wriiten and waiting. No need to rush.
And they were able to determine that he absolutely was not from Saudi Arabia. Not from Saudi Arabia. I'll repeat. He was not from Saudi Arabia. Hated those freedom lovers.
You must admit, the current Dorner Model MKUltra constructs are quite hardy and reliable.
I'd sure like a look at the Positronic Brain array.
now a dark skinned suspect
