I'm glad they caught the Boston bombing suspect...

[A Black Falcon]

Boston is only a couple of hours south of here, it was a bit scary...

It was impressive how the younger one managed to hide for so long against such a massive police presence and while injured, but they got him in the end, and alive! It's great that he was taken alive. Much better than killing him. As for the older brother... taking him alive would have been good too, but he does seem to have been a committed Islamist, of the two, and probably was the one who came up with the idea in the first place... and he had a suicide bomb with trigger tied to his stomach, so it doesn't seem like he wanted to live. In comparison the younger brother didn't have one. In comparison the younger brother mostly seems to have just been influenced by his older brother, who he looked up to... though that's no excuse for what he did, that's for sure. I mean, particularly if they can prove that he put down one of those bombs...

Still though, it's too bad that he was too young and stupid to realize what a terrible decision he was making, in going along with his brother. But "stupid" is definitely a part of it. I mean, two days after the bombing, he was... back at college, going to classes and a party? Really?
