Boston Marathon Explosion

The corner that is occupied seems to be yours. I said nothing about April 15th, I said Patriot's Day. What you always do is when you have all spewed dumbass statements you start talking to each other rather than talking to me. We've reach that point.

 

I think the article does it far better than I could. You just have to actually read it. I won't hold my breath.

 

The point I'm making is that you are attempting to tie this bombing to the "April 19th" radicals. For those people who hold April 19th in their hearts as some sort of special day, they see absolutely nothing special about April 15th. Or April 18th. Or April 11th. Or any other day besides April 19th.

Please submit some valid articles tying this bombing to the April 19th radicals. I'd like to read some of those instead of just your premature conclusions and assumptions.

 

Despite your OP, you are absolutely grasping at straws,Teddy!
Per your article;
April 19th was;
Patriots Day (in 2010)
Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas
OKC bombing (BTW, it was Wednesday)
initial incursion at Ruby Ridge, Idaho
United States went off the gold standard
(And missed by your article) Battle of Lexington and Concord April 19, 1775
However, just in case you missed it, yesterday was April 15th. April 15th is;
Tax day
Patriots Day (in 2013)
Boston Marathon bombing
I do not follow your supposed connections.

 

He doesn't have any connections. Like you said, RLM, he's "grasping at straws". Or listening to other left-wing morons:

I still think you guys are being too tough on lil joe moen...he has no idea what he's posting, he's just doing what he's told.

So your best evidence is a blog!?!? I could just as easily start a blog and say it was Obama who did it - or maybe you did it?

 

He's trying to reinforce his own position by pointing out the foolhardiness of others. It's a typical tactic of one who doesn't have an argument. He should have learned that in Debate 101, but apparently he missed that class.

I'm still waiting for you to submit something... ANYTHING... that backs up your insinuation that this attack was caused by April 19th radicals, Little Joe. Anything valid, not just some stupid blog.

 

Are you really that slow? Of course you are. What it actually is, is FOX etc. in their own words....delivered on a blog site. Are you really that technically stupid? Again, of course.

 

I think you are trying to tell me that Fox News is a blog site? FYI;

Well, that does not fit the description of what I read from Fox nor what I cite here from Fox.

BTW, I am still waiting for you to explain why you begin this thread with such an obvious lie!

 

THIS coming from the same guy who has previously said that blogs, ANY blogs, are (in so many words) worthless. Hoo boy!

 

The New York Post has been criticized for its coverage of the Boston marathon explosions.

Soon after the blasts struck on Monday afternoon, the paper, citing law enforcement sources, said that 12 people had died. It stuck to this assertion all day, even as every other outlet put the number at two or, at the most, three. By Tuesday morning, the official toll had not risen. The Post backtracked slightly, writing, "The official death toll was three, but a law-enforcement source told The Post it could be as high as 12."

The paper was also the first to say that a "Saudi National" had been taken "into custody" by police at a local Boston hospital. Its initial stories said that the man was
"identified as a suspect."

This was denied by the Boston police, who repeatedly said there was no suspect and nobody in custody. As the day went on, other outlets also reported that a man was being questioned, but only as a "person of interest" and not as a suspect.
NY Post Criticized Over Coverage Of Boston Bombings


The New York Times reported on Tuesday that investigators had concluded that the man was not involved in the attacks.

Post-watcher Michael Wolff tweeted that there was "great clucking" at the paper's parent company, News Corp., about its "marathon performance."

 

That's BS! I question someone's opinion in a blog but when they supply what people said in their own words, it's hard to deny the accuracy. Anything to avoid the obvious here boys, anything.

 

You're certainly one to speak of the "obvious". You think it's "obvious" that this attack was by right-wing radicals, probably someone who adheres to the April 19th-philosophy. You've jumped to conclusions based on your own prejudices and biases without any basis in fact. You've done nothing more than prove that you are an ass.

 

And then remember is original post;

How quickly the man turns around and demonstrates how easy it is for him to lie.

 

Indeed. No legitimate suspects have been found in the investigation thus far. The "possible suspect" (as NBC News reported*) turned out to be just a bystander. With no suspects, it amazes me that Lefties are so quick to point the finger. I'm not just talking about our resident idiot** on this forum. I'm talking about MSNBC talking-head Chris Matthews*** and other liberal pinheads****.

I'm sure that if I look up the word "Density", there is a picture of YOU....

(CNN) -- It didn't take long Monday for speculation to ramp up online over the timing of the Boston Marathon bombings, which came on Patriots Day, a Masschusetts state holiday commemorating the opening battles of the American Revolutionary War.
The American uprising against the British in Lexington, Massachusetts, was on April 19, 1775, but Patriots Day is celebrated in Massachusetts and Maine on the third Monday in April, falling this year on April 15.
"It's a day that celebrates the free and fiercely independent spirit that this great American city of Boston has reflected from the earliest days of our nation," President Obama said Monday, a few hours after a pair of bombs rocked the finish line of the Boston Marathon, killing at least three and injuring dozens more.
For many New Englanders, it is a day of pride that comes with historical re-enactments, the Boston Marathon, baseball and a day off for schools and government employees.

It's now a day that will go down in history along with other violent U.S. incidents in April, including the 1993 FBI siege of David Koresh's compound in Waco, Texas, the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, a mass shooting at Columbine High School in 1999 and the Virginia Tech massacre in 2007.
Only the Waco siege and the Oklahoma City bombing actually occurred on April 19, the anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord. Still, to many following developments in Boston online, the proximity of Monday's attack to the April 19 anniversaries was enough to suggest an act of domestic terrorism.
"Obviously, nobody knows anything yet," Esquire magazine's Charles Pierce said, "but I would caution folks jumping to conclusions about foreign terrorism to remember that this is the official Patriots Day holiday in Massachusetts ... and that the actual date (April 19) was of some significance to, among other people, Tim McVeigh, because he fancied himself a waterer of the tree of liberty and the like."
McVeigh and Oklahoma City bombing co-conspirator Terry Nichols were associated with the extreme right-wing and militant Patriot Movement, which rejects the legitimacy of the federal government and law enforcement. Adherents sometimes form armed militia groups and claim the right to armed self-defense against what they believe to be an oppressive government.
McVeigh said he targeted the Federal Building in Oklahoma City to avenge the raid on Waco. Despite commonly held beliefs, it's unclear whether the Columbine shooters timed that attack to mark either Adolf Hitler's birthday or the Waco incident.
Time Washington correspondent Alex Altman also noted Patriots Day's "significance" to the "militia movement" in a tweet that was shared 507 times. He also mentioned the Oklahoma City bombing anniversary. In a subsequent tweet, he clarified that "OKC was on Apr. 19, anniversary of the Battles of Lexington & Concord, which are celebrated in Mass as Patriots Day."
But is there really something about this time of the year that makes domestic terrorism more prevalent?
"I have seen nothing to suggest that anything about April itself makes people violent," Robert Blaskiewicz, who runs the blog Skeptical Humanities, said in a 2011 interview with CNN about the 20-year anniversary of the siege of the Waco compound.
"That said, the reason why we see certain types of political violence in mid- to late April is because of a few unhappy coincidences: that Waco happened to fall on the anniversary of the Battles of Lexington and Concord, the first battles in a war against a tyrannical oppressor.
"For many people who labor under the idea that the federal government is a tyrannical foreign oppressor like the British monarchy, Waco symbolizes a war of a government against its people."
In the mythology that has grown up around Waco and Oklahoma City among self-identified patriots, he said "the 19th has become a sort of high holiday for those who think that they live under the thumb of a tyranny."
But, as the injury count continues to rise in Boston, the prevailing sentiment is sorrow and solidarity.
"Don't know what to say. Everyone who grew up in and around Boston has been at the finish line on Patriots Day. Could have been any of us," tweeted Frank Dale, digital editor for ESPN's "Mike And Mike in the Morning" show.
President Obama offered a nod to the city's strength.
"Boston is a tough and resilient town, so are its people," he said. "I'm supremely confident that Bostonians will pull together, take care of each other, and move forward as one proud city.
"And, as they do, the American people will be with them every single step of the way."

 

Do you realize that you guys are always in the position of defending the crazies?
