They DO NOT have the second suspect in custody according to the scanner. Doesn't sound like they really know where he is either...

Today is 4/19, Tender: The end of the Waco standoff and the Oklahoma City Bombing. The holiest of days for all anti-government sociopaths.

This doesn't have anything to do with Columbine.

Yeah, but the Columbine anniversary is tomorrow.

And I think someone with guns has actually more to do with that, rather than the OC Bombing or Waco. (if it does not have anything to do with the Marathon suspects)

These people are (or are at least related to) the marathon suspects. Bet on it.

Plus, the weapons in use aren't important.

Basically, we don't know what the hell is going on.

Che shirts? I can hear Rush howling already...

Seriously though, I think it's way too soon to say definitively who is who here. This whole thing is way too confused right now. We don't even know for sure if it's only two of them...

They're not gonna find this guy tonight are they? Tomorrow (technically today) is going to be a very weird and scary one in the state of Massachusetts.

Guy on NBC in contact with FBI said if these guys are who they think they are, then they entered the US a year ago and (before or after coming to US) they received military training.

Yet they got caught robbing a 7-11 and carjacking? You'd think they would have received better training. 

Well, clearly they are/were pretty insane.

Mass transit shut down in Boston, and people in an area much broaded than Watertown have been told not to bother going to work. The whole area is basically on lockdown. Apparently Obama has also been brought up to speed.

So I guess the guy got out of containment in Watertown? I guess it could be a media ploy to make the guy feel confident and come out of hiding in Watertown...

The kids are on vacation this week right? Good thing.

So two kids (basically) from Chechnya (?). This whole thing is bizarre.

Ah, didn't think the older one looked 20 as they were originally reporting. 26 makes more sense.

Not sure if this has been posted or not yet, but this is supposedly his real twitter profile: https://twitter.com/J_tsar

He enjoys Breaking Bad because he likes meth!

Sean Collier, 26, was the MIT officer killed by the suspects.

I think people should be out and about.

Sorry, the terrorists won.

So do they keep the lockdown going if they can't find this guy by tomorrow? I'm guessing that's not going to be realistic.

Watching the press conference:

- The lockdown is lifted.

- These two weren't the ones who robbed the 7/11. They apparently were there earlier and then it just happened to be robbed by other people (?)

- They don't have a damn clue where this guy is.

They're telling people in Watertown to get back in their homes again (an hour after they finally told them they could come out).

Boston Globe reporting that 3 people have been arrested in connection w/bombings.

I wonder who the third person might be?

If he cooperates I can't see him getting the death penalty.

The most adorable terrorist of them all.
