None of those pics resemble what the FBI said the suspect was wearing really, the FBI said "a grey hoodie black backpack and BACKWARDS white baseball cap"

Ok the hat is not a Seal Insignia, no way. It is the skull symbol used in the movie the punisher. Look it up. Also if you look at the pic of the two PMC looking types on their phones or cupping their earpieces, it looks like it may have been taken after the blast. In the upper left of the photo is what looks like a mangled foot. The brown boots in the upper right are running the other way.
It is possible that these guys are private security for some VIP running the race. They do look like some type of ops guys. I have met and worked with several. What bothers me is the padding in the jacket of the guy without the hat, ballistic padding, motorcycle rider? If these are ops guys involved in this they are dumbest ones on the planet, no way they would go out in public looking like that. Xi.....maybe.
I have and no information other than what is on this and other websites about this event, I do have opinions and maybe an idea or two.
The disheveled guy does not look like he is holding a 30 lb weight. Go grab a dumbell and wrap it around your arm like that. His body is too relaxed. He does look shady though. The guy in white hat looks like he has a heavy pack, look closely at the strap, you can see the strain. I think this the guy they are interested in. The other picture of the guy messing with a backpack in alcove is curious because it is after the blast, he may be trying to retrieve something from his bag, a weapon or a phone or just trying hide.
There is nothing easy about figuring this out. If they used cell phones they would have to be disposable ones, or they are morons, cause they know they can be tracked and triangulated.
Patriot day is significant in my opinion, a foreigner is not likely to know about that.

Just because the media have picked up on something Alex Jones has posted, doesn't mean he is right.
All it means is they are using him for whatever purpose they have.
And think about this...how much has changed, for the better, because of Alex Jones, his show, or his site?
Not a damn thing from where I'm sitting.
So before people take the plunge and take his word as gospel, think about the fact that he might be disinformation and misinformation agent posing as some "truth seeker" as he claims, pretending to be a conspiracy theorist like you, while his intention is to steer theorists in a certain direction, in order to keep them from seeing the truth.
I don't find anything suspicious about the two guys in tan pants and black jackets with black backpacks, where in one photo they have their hands on their ear pieces.
What they appear to be to me, is some sort of law enforcement personnel.
Law Enforcement personnel and private security personnel, both uniformed, uninformed, and in some sort of identifiable clothing, are common at these sorts of events.
Using radios and ear pieces is also common practice amongst them.
As is carrying back packs.(I work in private security, I often carry a backpack, have the clear type ear pieces, concealed radios, tactical torches, sometimes wear plain clothes and you wouldn't know who I am or what I am doing, etc)
For all any of us know, they might be national guard medics or something to that effect.
Those backpacks might contain first aid kits.
The reason they might be sitting back after the bombs have gone off and not rushing in, is because they would obviously have a higher level of training and discipline then your average cop who you see rushing in to pull that fence down.
Those cops are putting their own lives at risk, because they do not know if there are further bombs in the area.
A known tactic of terrorists is to blow one thing up, then wait for everyone to rush in, then set off another bomb, killing as many people as possible. Even the media make mention of this.
This is part of counter terrorism training.
Hence why they would be standing back and not rushing in to help.
Almost everything has a logical explanation. I just provided one for those two guys in tan pants, black jackets and black backpacks. Alex Jones did not. But you chose to believe his theories without even questioning what was in those photos your self and thinking on your own.
The other two guys who that site claims could possibly be the bombers, even highlighting a bulge in one guys backpack, appear to be ordinary people. But then if you were going to do something like what has happened, you'd want to appear like an ordinary person wouldn't you?
Then there is the photo of the hobo looking guy holding a backpack with a similar strap to one of those guys.
Odd to say the least.
But I doubt these are the people responsible.
Think about it this way.
First, where did Alex Jones come across these pictures? Hackers? Yeh..right...
Secondly, if you were carrying a bomb in your back pack, would you want to be carrying it around for hours?
No, you would want to plant it as quickly as possible without being seen, and getting the hell out of there.
Carrying it around for a long time, especially if it looks odd like that one photo of the bulge, would only increase your chances of getting caught. Not just by law enforcement, but by social media. Everyone has a camera on their phone these days.
If these are the guys, they just f***** up.
But they aren't the guys.
Because if they were the guys, you would not hear about it or see them on Alex Jones first, you would hear about it and see them on your regular mainstream news first.
If it's so easy for Alex Jones to investigate things and come up with all the answers, why is he is a radio host and not a detective with the FBI?
Because most of his theories are bullsh**.

Yes, but I did not imply for him to believe in every word that a person says, be it Alex Jones, a 4chan member or anyone. However, some things that he says are true, so you cannot completely discredit him, especially when you have pictures as evidence.
