Boston Bombs on Boylston St?

These kids went to elite private high schools. Who was paying for that if they didn't have a father in their lives?
Yeah, their uncle could barely contain his anger. I've seen the interview twice now, here. He's shouting and furious for a long duration, calling them "losers" and bad people, in general. He shifts tone a bit and says he's a proud immigrant, loves the States, and is thankful for all the opportunities he perceives for having immigrated. He bashes them (the suspects) some more and tells his nephew to turn himself in and face the consequences.
At the end of the press conference, he addresses the victims and their families and says: We, as a family, are grieving with you. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you and I will bend before you and beg for your forgiveness on behalf of my entire family.
Pretty stand-up dude.
Now reporting here that they have the younger brother located and holed-up.
I give this stand-off 3 hours before the kid commits suicide or is killed.
It's 11:55 EST
by 3, this kid is toast or in handcuffs.
Props to the uncle. He definitely is a stand-up guy.
I respect their uncle, he seems to be a good guy. But just something about these kids doesn't add up. So they were living in Boston by themselves? Was it just the older brother taking care of the younger one? Who supported them financially?

Now white male, 60-70 years old. 160-170 lbs. blue jeans. brown jacket. device is in his jacket, possibly a suicide vest with dead men's switch is being dealt with by the bomb squad.
The officers are aware they're being monitored. They're now sending email to each other and changing radio channels.
Does Boston not have multiple tactical channels to switch to for things like this?
And they know the whole world is listening in. Hell I used to listen in on my days off just to see what everybody was up to.
Are there any working police scanner links?

This is much bigger than your little summary reason, a religion that breads this type of person is not going to just lay around peacefully just because the U.S. withdraws military forces. It never has at any moment in history BEFORE the United States and it isn't going to start now.
Thank you for your reply. I didn't infer that the victims are to be blamed. But there are victims on the other side too, thousands of times as many, of the unjustified wars and occupations and coups sponsored of the US. Your media doesn't show those pictures doesn't mean their sufferings are any less. Most of the times it has nothing to do with religion and everything with geopolitics. Christians have been the most brutal people in history (try to find out what percentage of women were raped in the Americas, not of talk of wiping out of entire civilizations), but I doubt it was because Christianity taught them that. Of course religion is one of the binding factors through which people feel connected to each other just as nationality is. But if that's a crime, then we're all criminals.
I'm not saying it's all only US's fault, but they certainly do a lot to create such monsters. If the innocent people bombed in Afghanistan and Iraq (and their sympathisers), decide to take up arms against 'America', it would be wrong to say it's because their religion teaches them that. I do not condone that behaviour at all but to say that the religion breads that, in my opinion, is nothing but wishful thinking.

Haha. Yes.
SWAT Team making entry on live TV.
If they have the right house, this shit is over in 4 minutes.

Pretty funny... They keep showing the interview with the uncle here and every time I hear something with even more "win." The press asks him about why the suspects did this and he says, "Because! They are LOSERS!" who could not settle themselves into the culture, so therefore they hated others who did. Any suggestion that this is about religion or nationalism is a facade and completely false. The two kids are just disassociated and unpopular losers who could not assimilate into the American way of life, so they tried to destroy it. Pretty much the same story as a lot of the recent massacres in the States. Losin'-ass dipshits who will never fit in snap one day and BOOM.

Wow. So this is like the school shooters and the movie shooter?
Its even more scary if its not Islam.
Area clearing out... My prediction:
This is over. SWAT team had the right house. Suspect is probably dead, if not in custody.
Going on a gamble here: Over 12:25 EST...
*** Over for this suspect***
Still have to get the "accomplice" whoever that is...
News conference coming up...
I bet my IRA, dude is arrested... 19 yo ain't gonna kill himself.

Suicide by cop
He's going out guns blazing
Everyone's talking with a sense of relief, but not saying anything significant.

I don't understand why these people stay in the same city they committed the crime in.

This, to me, is dumbfounding. 9000 police investigating a crime scene, you have 4 days to get away and yet you abruptly attempt to rob a convenience store 5 minutes from the explosion site.
Flabbergasting.

Why did the Newtown shooter kill himself?
These guys planned on dying.
Alright... Gonna risk my rep and stick to my guns... This guy is arrested and the police are just being cautious because there is still one suspect on the loose.
Who has a press release where you thank everyone involved in the middle of a crisis? Nobody. They found the dude.
It seems like if the two of them had just laid low, they would not have been able to be conclusively identified from the photos that were released. Certainly not the older brother. Several people that were interviewed said the picture of the younger brother didnt jog their memory.
