They could have gone to his house in the morning to see if he wanted to load up his backpack and go for a picnic. No harm there. Or simply followed him that morning, it's not a violation of his rights to tail him.
It simply would have been prudent. They have a billion dollar budget with 15000 agents there are two options; they did it or allowed it. Either way heads should roll- literally.

No, I'm suggesting that the Federal government should keep a tighter leash on their pets.
So you are suggesting that the Federal Government was behind this attack?
That is surprising, I expected more.

In the end, they got both the suspects in only 4 days...kind of hard to argue with those results.
Uhm, it's only hard to argue if you neglect the fact that the CIA had Tamerlan years before the event actually occurred. The bombing itself was 100% preventable... everything which went down afterward was ass covering and unnecessary bullcrap.
Rregardless of whether they are Chechnian or government terrorists, the terrorists won AGAIN. Citizens were terrorized, inconvenienced, and freedom and liberty was, yet again, ordered to roll over and take it some more. EPIC FAIL by the system.
Did they have enough evidence to take Tamerlan into custody? He was on watch, yes, but are you suggesting that the government should just go out and arrest everyone who is on a watch list? That would cause a whole other round of complaints from people. Again, damned if you do, damned if you don't.

I think they were probably behind the attacks. I don't recall seeing any pictures of dozens of cops injured in some firefight, the several hundred injured spectators of the marathon, the improvised explosive devices allegedly used, the killed MIT cop, etc.
It could have been a hollywood act done by crisis actors. In fact it is speculated that the same thing happened in sandy hook nj.
Six people face fraud charges after they claimed to be hurt on a SEPTA bus. Two problems, only one of them was actually on the bus and, the bus never got in a crash. We’ll explain. SEPTA surveillance video shows a woman actually did fall on the Route 56 bus the night of Nov. 25 as the bus pulled up to the Wakeling Street stop along Torresdale Avenue. “The bus had not been in an accident or made any sudden maneuvers and no other passengers reported any injuries at the time,” according to a press release from Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office. The woman didn’t appear to be seriously hurt and authorities say she refused treatment, even though paramedics were called. Yet, SEPTA received $54,000 in medical bills from six different people – five of whom were never on the bus.

Your first sentence does not discriminate other than 'well armed'. There are lots of well-armed people out there that are not idiots, and besides that, who are you to judge?
Your second sentence is not only a broad brush that insults any number of people solely because they are American public. This puts you on a mighty high horse. Reckon you can handle the fall?
If it makes you feel any better, I clarified my statement about armed people to not include all of them.
And for the second statement, I stand by it. I am part of the American public, by stating that the American public is stupid, it is a generalized observation. Meaning that more than not, if you encounter someone out in public...they are going to be stupid.
If it makes you feel any better, it's not just the American public...it is the entire world population. The stupid out-number the non-stupid.edit on 30-4-2013 by LogicGrind because: (no reason given)

And you are definitely NOT HELPING anyone by making up excuses on behalf of the corrupt system.
Instead of being part of the solution, you are a part of the problem.
The fourth amendment was violated in boston in many instances by the pictures I saw in another thread.
You even said there was a lockdown only in watertown, but if that is the case then why was business all over boston closed? Am I wrong here or what? There is a lot of confusion with the OS! The media does not have to prove anything apparently, only the conspiracy theorists do.
I just have to reiterate, who are you to judge? You haven't even supported arguments very well about constitutional history and fact, much less interpretation. Who's the idiot? You seem to be perfectly willing to accept the burgeoning domestic forces that are moving the US into a police state. A lot of people call such people 'sheep' or 'sheeple' because sheeple behavior is, well, frankly stupid. Who's stupid? If you're so discontented with the people you meet in public because, chances are, they're stupid, what can you do about it to remediate your situation? If you can't remediate or are discontented with the reality that you're stuck on this planet with a bunch of stupid people, then who's stupid?

Agreed!
I got really fired up over how this went down and got my first and hopefully last "Extreme T&C violation since I became a member of this site. Which I must say I deserved.....
But the idea of people thinking it is AOK to have people at gun point to be ushered by the "Gestapo" out of their homes when they have done nothing wrong and THEN seeing my fellow Americans defend this kind of action by the "Gestapo" really sent me over the edge........

Even if what you say is true I cannot comprehend the need for federal agents to direct a search and arrest or search and kill for just two suspects. BPD and State Police could have handled it much more efficiently than DHS did.
And why the hell would they advise business to close down thus taking a hit in the billions for just two people? You really don't see the overkill factor here? Or advising people outside of watertown to stay in their homes when they could have been outside and assisted in this grossely overblown manhunt?
I am still waiting for the pictures of the alleged hundreds of injured spectators, dozens of police officers injured and the MIT dead cop. Don't dissapoint. Photoshop them if you need.

Not exactly. I think it is just one more example in a long string of cases in which one of their weapons went off the reservation and bit the hand that fed them. There's a world of difference between "the government did this" and "a government trained asset just went off the rails." Osama bin Laden is probably the most glaring example of this... CIA trained to be a weapon against the Soviets, ultimately turning his training and knowledge against the country that created him.
The Feds are behind these attacks as well as most modern dictators we have gone to war to defeat to the degree that the Federal government has created these boogeymen themselves.

Unless tax dollars constitute allowing something to happen, you'd be wrong on this. Bottom line here is the majority of America demonstrates their stupidity and fondness of the kneeling position with their voting record... why in the hell should any of us who insist on standing put our necks out for a bunch of willingly enslaved fools? Please don't confuse my vehement complaining and disdain for what the nation is becoming with a lack of overall apathy for the future of the flock. At my core I've stopped caring about the Americans who have allowed this to happen and now only care for my own. They've made their bed and can lay in it for eternity, but I have no plans to do the same.

Hi Earth, I know that there have been domestic anti-terrorism training exercises, and there was one in Florida where I used to live, but the difference is they announce it when they do it. I don't believe the Boston Bombing was such an activity. Whether there were govt OPs involved or whether it was just Chechen guys who hated America, it was still a crisis not to be wasted in it resulted in a Gestapo-like door to door search of the area.
