The president said "weapons of war have no place on our streets?" Did he mean ours or theirs? I think the answer is pretty easy now.
Again, is this what we are to expect if they are chasing a 19 y/o terror suspect. Realize, this was supposed to be for one guy. We now know the truth so the next time TPTB feel there is a cell active they will be able to do this?

You can. I did a quick search and did not see it. Even in different forums. It is not about who did it it is about getting the word out
Oh, by golly, catch them in the act with dozens of paid and trained sets of eyes on scene.

What I find more disturbing is that this much military personnel and police couldn't find the suspect hiding in someone's backyard.
This is restricted by the 4th amendment. What they did in Boston was set precendent. Once a precedent is set in can be argued as law.
