So there were the CST teams from NY, RI, and MA already on scene?
Apparently so.
What they were doing there, I have no idea, I merely wanted to relay the information that they weren't some "spooky private security firm", they're National Guard.
Not living in Massachusetts or being one to attend a lot of marathons, I don't know if it is common to have these sorts of people around, though one presumes that if they have to drill and/or be in a place where they might come in handy, an international event that draws tens of thousands in a city of millions would probably be reasonable.

As Boston reeled, younger bombing suspect partied
Ok errr, seriously?
So this "kid" who allegedly, VERY VERY allegedly, planted bombs at a public event is "partying" and attending classes as though everything is normal.
...
One could argue that maybe they thought they committed the "perfect crime", that they wouldnt get caught.
Even so, why wouldnt they have a back-up plan? They werent stupid. Dartmouth is one of the most prestigious and selective schools in America. They dont accept dummies (unless youre wealthy or "well connected")...

Out of all the things this guy could of bombed, why the marathon which had heavy security?
Why not his school? Or some club? Some bar or diner he frequented?
What was the motive to bomb the people at a marathon?

Oh, no... You didn't hear? They closed classes for the week, but he broke into the buildings and attended his classes, insisting that his education was more important than mourning the victims... THAT'S how much he hates America! You just don't seem to understand the level of commitment we are up against here... There were no professors of course, so he played the part, giving himself lectures and even playing the part of other students, providing a point/counterpoint debate in which he drove himself mad and now that's why we will never have the answers... They are locked inside this young man's incomprehensible mind... Forever.

The U of Mass - Dartmouth campus is about 60 -70 miles south of Boston.
Why would they close down their regular campus activities for a manhunt in Boston?

Well even I'm ranting and raving right now. Well - for me anyways.
I'm so scared for everyone right now and watching some of the stuff people say. It makes me scared FOR them. Because how does a government fall? By force. So when you state that your something, and that you want to see the government fail - your condoning the violence it would take to do it.
What do the terrorists want? They want America to fail. They want to see our government fail. So when people echo the same sentiments - they go up on the radar.

I suggest we just demand that they actually BE the government that they are created as instead of introducing illegal legislation, implementing illegal agencies and directives to those agencies etc...
Our form of government is the best ever conceived, but it has drifted, in practice, too far from its concept and that has to change... VERY SOON...
