Bitbutter, I suggest going into the notion that the state considers itself not only the owner of land , but also the owner of people.

[quote user="Blargg"]3 murdered and 183 injured, rights waived. It's not even a Limbo anymore.[/quote] See, that's the funny thing. For a person's rights to be waived before conviction is known as extra-judicial punishment, which the US government itself says is the hallmark of unjust (oppressive, tyrannical) regimes. I guess the

Aristophanes, didn't you claim in another thread that cops are liars? Yet in this thread's OP, you seem to be taking everything the cops have said on faith. Which is it? Do you blindly trust cops or not?

Since I think it's unlikely that an actual drill would be going on at the same time and place as the Boston Marathon, the implication of the claim of such a coincident drill implies to me that there was an active investigation afoot. That, in turn, implies to me that there was some prior suspicion on the part of "the government" that a

[quote user="Aristophanes"]Why don't you ask a fucking cop about how they handle highly public unconfirmed bomb threats? Do you think they are gonna tell people, "FREAK OUT WE DON't KNOW IF or WHERE there is a bomb!" I'm sure it is in a manual somewhere, but I'm not gonna find it.[/quote] It seems you missed this

Okay, I've been doing some more thinking about this. At this point, I find it harder to believe that there just happened to be a drill going on coincident with the Boston Marathon than to believe that the claim of there being a drill was an excuse for the added (and obvious) police presence. While I think that's a poor excuse, given how many

[quote user="John James"]To point out his bullshit response from earlier and illustrate that you're probably not going to get a satisfactory answer.[/quote] Okay, fair enough then. The terseness of your statement, plus the use of the term "chief", seemed to convey an undertone of "You're an idiot for trying to do something
