@GREED: Quite an exciting holiday eh?

 

I would stay inside though, if he has a suicide vest he is going to want to find a very crowded place to say goodbye world.

BBC:

 

"A profile of Dzhokhar Tsarnaev on Russian social network VKontakte suggests he has been a student at the Cambridge Rindge and Latin School in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and had previously attended school in Makhachkala, in the Russian Republic of Dagestan, between 1999-2001. It suggests he is a Muslim believer and reads: "The main thing in life - status and gold". The latest update on the page is from 19 March 2012."

 

Seems he could be a religiouis extremist.

Countdown to "HIP HOP TERRORISTS" news stories. Why can't the media accept that a sociopath is just a sociopath and nothing more? Why do we have to place the blame on anything other than the perpertrator themselves?

[GREED]

[GREED]
