I don't think there is any government conspiracy in this case period. That in no way means we can't question parts of the investigation or proceedings, but to paint some broad picture of conspiracy in this case just doesn't make any sense to me or to mistrust everything the Govt. does. To all be aware and to question, yes, that makes sense and is part of being an active and responsible citizen.
At first, I thought the Govt. was downplaying any bigger connections TT/DT had, but not now really - although I'm sure they are still looking for 'influences' at the least or terrorism trends.
I am really upset with Zubeidat Tsarnaeva and how she has fueled things in the media. How she acts like her sons are victims. I think she should face her charges in the US for theft and for running, she is still a criminal. She is a coward and irresponsible, someone who is now trying to make her dead son into a martyr and claim he was set up when it appears she helped lead TT (and hence DT) to a radical position. I don't like that, I don't like any of it. Her arrogance is astounding and it is a slap in the face to everyone in the US and the victims.
But no, the Rolling Stone cover is not something I find outrageous. I do find the officer's behavior of releasing evidence photos of great concern. That is a huge No No.
My theory is that TT became disgruntled and more and more violent prone (taking it out on women even) over a few years, his ego crushed, eventually leading to him trying to prove what a tough guy he was and devoted to Islam (?IDK). I don't know how someone goes so far over the line that they think it is ok to even kill innocent children, let alone kill and horribly maim others. I don't like that at all and I assume almost no one here does. It's a heinous crime.
Having said all that, I want to see DT in prison for life. I think there will be plenty of evidence to convict him - but let's let the legal process proceed, he has his rights. I want to see Zubeidat face her charges and go to jail. I don't want to cruelly hurt either one of them by inflicting bodily damage. I think the death penalty is archaic and serves no purpose - I hope one day it is no long because it pains me to think I have to be a part of that. Peace begins with being civil and humane instead of mimicking the inhumane behavior of those we condemn and seeking revenge (even if just in our minds and on this forum).
And see from my viewpoint this notion
But no, the Rolling Stone cover is not something I find outrageous. I do find the officer's behavior of releasing evidence photos of great concern. That is a huge No No.
IMO, The No No is what my concern is. IMO, they should have released those picks the night it happened. There is nothing evidentiary there IMO.
They did not release them and look at the one they released - our LE got HIM. They did not want us to see that "getting him" was in reality a kid, bleeding to death and exhausted trying to crawl out of a boat (and trying real hard not to fall out)_ to peacefully surrender.
IMO, All the hoopla Captured
When I look up the word it is to take by force or stratagem; take prisoner; seize: The police captured the burglar.
When I look up surrender it means to give (oneself) up, as to the police
Look at the pic released all of them around him in action The new picture he looks like he is about to fall Out of the boat.
Big difference - (especially when you throw into the mix 9874 LE violating 1000s of peoples rights regarding no search warrants to enter hundreds of citizen homes , in gangs of six armed to the max, opening peoples closets and refrigerators according to our constitution that is illegal
We can take this to any extreme serial killer on the loose anyone wants LE barging in our private dwellings because there is a danger out there.
He could have more bombs, well a serial killer could have more rope, and an arsonist could have more matches.
Cigarettes are a danger do we want everyone barging in to seize them? Its the principle here. I was floored watching LE close down the 10th biggest city in the country because a 19 year old is on the loose.
Two people who used a pressure cooker by that I mean something might be different if they set off a nuclear bomb or something.
NO I am not minimizing familys losses etc. at all. Needs to be in perspective. IMO a lot of the word conspiracy here.
When I look that word up I get any concurrence in action; combination in bringing about a given result. Are we saying that the picture released does not give a different notion about what happened?
And IMO, yes, this is related, the murder of the guy in Orlando. They all have just decided poof we are not investigating anything, we are not telling citizens what occurred that sounds IMO, like Russia of yesteryear to me. IMO its not ok.
Are we saying that the FBI, who killed an individual (Orlando) did not chose a given result by basically blowing the whole innocent off?
. If I shot an unarmed person 7 times someone would want to know why and what exactly happened.
It becomes IMO, even more ludicrous in at the end of the day a citizen pushed a 9 and a 1 followed by another 1 no one FOUND him by all this LE acumen. They were TOLD he is there.
It then becomes actually frightening that IMO the public bought the notion that from the beginning they needed the publics help to identify individuals known to two superpowers to be a danger and need someones cell phone picture to find out who they might be.
This ought not to be the game Clue!
Am I saying LE did not put their heart and soul into it not at all. BUT the ability these days to manipulate the public are frightening.
IF they really needed spectators cell phone pictures of someone on the radar for years then we have a whole other kind of problem.
Its the same thing with cooperate America censoring what is supposed to be a free media (Rolling Stone Cover) Where did freedom of the press go?
Like anything TV violence, video games *advertiser censored* if anyone finds these items offensive then they have the right to not look, buy, and or participate. Anything.
40 years ago, IMO if cooperate America tried not to sell a copy of the New York Times cause they did not like the headline there would have been an uproar.
That is the way it is supposed to be, that supposedly is what makes us different, IMO.
The notion that lots of people thought they were glamorizing his picture IMO, that is ones perspective and OK to have but MY perspective does not have to be EVERYONE elses or its banned.
Furthermore Rolling Stone is a widely respected publication. They have no control over the fact that the kid is a nice looking kid.
It is not like they airbrushed him thats him the cover story was about him, they put a picture of him of the cover of this months edition of what is the biggest IMO, story of the year.
How dare Rolling Stone put it on their cover!
Additionally all the folks who felt as if they had the right to censor it by not selling it and making headlines made its sales soar
Rolling Stone sales double with 'Boston Bomber'...
http://money.cnn.com/2013/08/01/news/companies/rolling-stone-boston-bomber/?npt=NP1
IMO, it was a terrifically written piece that gave nuance to the him. Nothing more, nothing less. I knew more about him after reading the piece than I did before I read it. That is what journalism is supposed to do but it is supposed to be freedom of the press, IMO.
What CVS and all the rest did was control what the public had the right to choose to read if they saw fit. It also, when it was happening, in this day and age IMO, hit me as silly.
In this day age some folks in a boardroom really believed that by censoring a publication they would prevent those who wanted to read it (evidently a lot of folks) they did so. Rightfully-it is a right for us to choose.
As far as the individual who released the pictures, he released a picture. He gets in trouble for releasing the truth? Scary again.
He interfered with an investigation? Well, typically in investigations a picture tells a thousand words.
Is there an ongoing investigation about him bleeding and surrendering? About him coming out the boat? About him putting his hands up? About him pulling his shirt when up while cooperating with law enforcement when directed to do so?
Was it like his identity was a secret? What did the LE guy who released the pictures compromise?
So, in sum we have IMO:
Amendment IV
Search and arrest
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution reads, in part, "Congress shall make no law
abridging the Freedom of Speech, or of the press."
