[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I may be flamed for this - I cannot help but feel a sadness and sorrow for this 19 year old young man.  I do not - in any way - condone what he and his brother did!  I am from Boston and have a boy the same age as the young boy that was killed.  It is just that I see in his eyes a troubled young man.  I hear the stories of how he was just another "normal" teenager, I hear the interviews with his poor father, I hear the description of how they are guarding him in the hospital.  WHAT HAPPENS TO A YOUNG MAN TO GO FROM NORMAL TEENAGER TO TERRORIST?
It scares me - I have two boys who are bright and impressionable and sweet and my babies.  Maybe it is because my DH is of Eastern European descent and I see similarities in these boys facial features to my own boys and my nephews.  I want to reach out to him and get in his head and heart and understand what has damaged him. He was a little boy - not so long ago - how does this happen????[/quote]

he isn't a terrorist. he is an alleged criminal.[/quote]

"Alleged criminal" shut the fuck up, he is a terrorist. Put a bomb next to an 8 year old and just walked away. Yes, influenced by a crazy brother but old enough, educated enough and connected to the world enough to know that putting a bomb next to an 8 year old child is wrong. End of story. [/quote]

He isn't a terrorist. He is an alleged criminal.

What separates our country from the ones you hate is the presumption of innocence and due process.

There is no indication at all that this was an act of terrorism. Did it terrorize some people? Sure. But it wasn't "terrorism."

The good news is he is entitled to a fair trial. Let's see what the charges are.

But you? You're a fucktard. Don't post anymore.[/quote]
