How they found the Boston bombers
The Washington Post has an excellent and very informative article detailing how law enforcement authorities analyzed evidence after the Boston bombing, identified the attackers, and closed the net around them. I won't excerpt it here, because you really need to read the whole thing to get the full picture. It's pretty impressive, looking at how fast they pulled all the pieces together and found the guilty parties.
Go read.

Eh. She seems to be complaining about a picture of the dead kid because it isn't pretty.
ReplyDeleteViolence isn't pretty, and neither are its results. There is no so such thing as "clean violence" outside of a Hollywood movie.
Not really sure what point she was trying to make. I think she's just been gobsmacked by a sliver of reality, and is unhappy about it.
