Explosion during Boston Marathon (non-political discussion)

    It would really suck (for them) if these two are completely innocent because it looks like reddit/4chan/hivemind is working in full force on these guys.

    I wouldn't be shocked in the least bit if they dig up a shit ton of pictures of them by tomorrow and they know everything about them in a few days.

    I don't use any of these. Care to post things. Or links to anything interesting?

    One talking head was speculating the white hat guy might be so nonchalant because he's actually in disguise - wig and fake nose. Scary thought, but seems too sophisticated (unless professionally done, a fake nose would likely look so bad as to attract a lot of attention).

    If they are foreign terrorists, I don't think they've normally shown that much interest in getting away or remaining anonymous. Not Al Qaeda, anyway.

    They obviously don't care. Anyone with rational thought would know they'd get captured on hundreds of photos/security cameras, especially in a big city with a lot of tourists.

    Ain't no one gonna give a shit about a fake nose enough to "attract a lot of attention" during the Boston Marathon.:laugh:

    Reading through that reddit stuff, people seem to think that the other suspect is in the picture too.

    Behind and to the right a little bit, there is a a guy running with khaki pants on. Dark hat, but it looks like he has a red color jacket/shirt on. I don't know...

    I'm assuming they are saying that is the little boy that was killed?

    Apparently one of the females in the pic can also be spotted running away in the earlier pic. So she left the area right before it went off.

    This world is fucked.

    I thought the kid died essentially running into the 2nd explosion? Was that story completely wrong, or am I missing something?

    I thought the 2nd explosion was 3 seconds after the first? And a block away. That wouldn't make it possible..but idk

    Wasn't the first explosion in a trash can or along the wall of a storefront? That would make the bag in this photo the 2nd explosion (which was 12-15 seconds after the first).
