Further! My top of my list was “Male Caucasian” .
So how badly was she hurt? How large was the mob? How many police were required to quell the violence? How many people were taken into custody? Surely at least some of the witnesses came to her aid?
Meh. Being punched in the shoulder is small potatoes. After 9/11, people were shot - and some of them weren’t even Muslims (not that it would have been justified if they were).
It’s easy to write off bigotry as small potatoes when you’re not the demographic under attack.
It’s nit about one punch and one epithet. It goes on.
Got him. I think.
Yep. And people I know are already calling for him to be violently and bloodily anally raped in prison before being executed. Go America. Rah rah.
In one piece?? Or is it like, “Well, Cliff’s got an arm and what Officer O’Mallery is holding is possibly the torso.”
The people you know have my support.
Why would you want to have that happen to you? Oh, you say that you didn’t blow anyone up? How do we know that?
Mostly one piece, although he’s been described as a “bloody mess”.
Although if he lost a limb or two due to his wounds I doubt anyone would be shedding a tear over that.
Yeah, I’m watching it on TV and the people in the streets are cheering the security forces as they depart. Somehow the crowd does not look like they are organizing to visit bloody revenge on any innocent and unsuspecting neighbors of foreign extraction that they can find. They are not, that I can hear, chanting for the death of foreign devils. Not a pitchfork in sight. No riot police, no burning cars, no burning Chechen flags or effigies.
Or is this blatant display of civility a ruse?
Finally. I thought the US attorney would never shut up.
Just watched a lot of people congratulating a lot of other people for a job well done. Owing to this thread I’d like to include Ruslan Tsarni who did everything but personally Pit his nephews. This crap about Muslims not speaking out against the actions of the few apparently doesn’t apply here, and I’ll bet that alone did a lot to settle people down.
I am really surprised they got him alive. I never would have guessed. So… maybe we can learn what this was all about after all.
Any chance this guy will get anything other than life without parole?
You can just imagine the cut soundbite of Uncle Ruslan going “Losers!” becoming a major audiovisual meme. Somebody does something criminal or just outrageously lame and cue the clip/YouTube link: “Losers!”
Yes, and I was just assaulted by Puff the Magic Dragon.
…what? I’ve got just as much evidence as she does.
Two links to the same “story” - no proof, just allegations. Come back when you have something, Sparky.
Meanwhile, thanks to Uncle Ruslan for being a voice of sanity in all this mess.
A friend of mine lives in Watertown right there next to where all this happen. She said “after 20 hours we can finally try and get some sleep.” I don’t think she feels up to joining a mob.
The rest of the family isn’t exactly lining up behind Ruslan.
Wow. You knew he would be from the Caucasus? That’s some pretty good intuition you got! 
Are you saying that you support violent anal rape?
Like.
This. I am too! I swore he’d kill himself or have the cops do it for him. But after reading some of the family story, this kid may have been led by his brother. It’s his chance to tell the story now.
As far as getting out of prison ever? No. Not a chance. Federal crime, patriot act, hell, they don’t even need Miranda coming into this. Plus there may be more info he could give us that he and/or brother were into.
Almost l
