[LiberalElite]

:

[Jamastiene]

1. K&R

[riderinthestorm]

2. [phone]!!!! nt

[femmocrat]

3. Absolutely!

[flamingdem]

4. Good job Boston!

[OhioChick]

5. Job well done! n/t

[aaaaaa5a]

6. This is the result when you have police offices and not cowboys conducting

law enforcement. Well done!

[Puzzler]

21. Agree 100%. Boston follows the London model.

(without the terrible mistake the London police made with the innocent Brazilian)

[DinahMoeHum]

22. Thank their Unions there.

[City Lights]

7. !

[grantcart]

8. Yep civilization gets a big point.

I do have to say that I am left wondering that if you are doing a door to door search I would have thought that they would have checked all of the tool sheds, and tarp coverings, and oh yeah covered boats.

[morningfog]

10. I read somewhere in the sea of links and tweets that they did search that boat.

Later, someone noticed it had been gotten into.

[sheshe2]

38. I read that too. nt

[Mr. Evil]

56. They're not perfect

But, they are resilient.

[Zorra]

9. Great job! nt

[UnrepentantLiberal]

11. A tough,

mostly thankless job... until we need them.

[randome]

12. .

[BlancheSplanchnik]

47. awww :) I'm gonna check out Natalie Dee's webpage!

[Baitball Blogger]

13. Yeah!

[nolabear]

14. Absolutely. Outstanding work.

[Marrah_G]

15. Huge applause as the ambulance goes by

[steve2470]

16. Outstanding job everyone involved !!!! nt

[Blue_Roses]

17. Yes! Awesome job!

[karynnj]

18. Amazing work

I really thought this could be like the Atlanta Olympics bombing where it could take years.

It also makes me realize that much as some hate it, the fact that we have archived video surveillance can be the thing needed to learn how things happened. The key is to balance privacy needs and to use it for things of sufficient importance to justify any lost privacy of people.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

19. This is called "Community Service".

[freshwest]

50. +1. Watching live tv with people lined up and cheering it's over with.

Many said they prayed for a peaceful outcome while locked in their houses. Great relief.

[burrowowl]

20. Well done!

And alive, maybe some answers as to why.
Sounds like the older brother had a change in personality over a year ago, paranoia, schizophrenia ... ?

[gejohnston]

23. right on

film at eleven?

[Politicub]

24. Awesome!

[Triana]

25. ABSOLUTELY! And guys in cowboy hats with funny accents too.

[ChangeUp106]

26. USA

[moondust]

27. No, no! We all need assault weapons to be safe!!!

Cuz the gubmint don't werk!




Good work, Mass!

[motocicleta2]

28. like button

we really could stand that here. I'd be liking this one. I mean, I do, it just took longer. And I'm lazy.

[pangaia]

33. Right om..

How could such a "libtard' state ever do what these guys did.
Will wonders never cease.

[Amonester]

37. +1

I wish there was no more senseless violence, though.

Senseless.

[Skip Intro]

42. I'll bet the Boston residents with guns in their homes

felt a hell of a lot safer than those without these last couple of days.

Because they were.

[MissDeeds]

29. Absolutely

Huge K&R to the first responders who put themselves in harm's way to protect and defend their fellow citizens. And, while we are giving much deserved kudos, I'd like to add my sincere condolences to the family of Sean Collier, the 26 year old MIT security officer who lost his life. You are in our thoughts and in our hearts. Sean will not be forgotten.

[budkin]

30. Thank you NRA because guns!

Guns were used to catch the bad guy!!! Go NRA!

[kelliekat44]

31. I'M IN!!!

[RGinNJ]

32. Wicked good job!

[KinMd]

34. Heros in my book

..people of the neighborhood cheering all the first responders...it's a great thing to see

[ailsagirl]

35. So impressed, so relieved!!!

[titanicdave]

36. This is the way

a well funded, well trained government works for those of you tea party twits that think that all government is a waste of money time and effort and we should all pay no taxes........this is your wake up call

[pnwmom]

39. K & R

[Swamp Lover]

40. Thumbs Up! Job well done!!!!

Now. On to a TRIAL in a civilian court!!!!

[Swede Atlanta]

41. Thanks to law enforcement and first responders.....

You demonstrate the best of this country. Thank you for your service and sacrifice!!!

[Robb]

43. Hell yah!

[Skip Intro]

44. K&R!

[DonCoquixote]

45. hear hear

THIS is how we beat terrorists, not by panic, not by vigilantism, but by sharing information and cooperation.

[golfguru]

46. Thank that woman who saw blood on the parked boat and called cops

Without her tip, who knows!

[RILib]

62. guy not woman.

[1gobluedem]

48. Outstanding

Everyone did everything right.

[AndyA]

49. I'm thankful there are still people in this country in public service that do their jobs well

Don't bother looking for them in Congress, you'll be disappointed with much of what you see there, but the men and women involved in capturing this suspect did their jobs well.

And thank goodness they did!

Congress needs to take lessons from them--in fact, perhaps some of these people can just take over for the folks in Congress who don't want to do their job!

[BumRushDaShow]

51. Hear hear!

[bluedigger]

52. Well done, indeed!

[pengillian101]

53. K & R n/t

[FailureToCommunicate]

54. Cheers!

55. .... Campus Police, Transit Police, ATF, FBI, State Police, City Police, Homeland Sec, + Many More

1 Campus Cop died in his police car doing his job, and a Transit Cop was severely injured.

[Zoeisright]

57. K&R

What we saw this week, those heroic actions of law enforcement, is part of the reason we pay taxes.

[William769]

58. kick & recommended.

[Myrina]

59. Applause yes, but the "USA USA USA" chanting by the crowd really turned my stomach.

This wasn't a sporting event. There's no call whatsoever for the thundering herd mentality that took over.
I'm guessing 98% of those folks all puffed up and chanting "USA!" were probably home shitting their pants just a few hours prior.

And we wonder why so much of the rest of the world hate us? Gawd, we can be abhorrent sometimes.

[JDPriestly]

60. They were great. I hope other cities learn from them.

[RILib]

61. clap, clap

Bostonians in general did well, too.

So sorry for the victims and the police officer:

[Dan Ken]

63. Remeber: Republicans are only out to cut their wages and benefits

People who put their lives on the line for 30 years shouldn't have lifetime retirement and medical benefits for their injuries, so say the Republithugs.

Remember that the next time a Republithug seeks office promising to cut taxes.

[smirkymonkey]

64. Yes, Bravo!
