Where do you draw the line on declaring war?  Are two ten year old kids in your neighborhood declaring war with an M80 in a mailbox?  Do you waterboard them?  No rights for little Bobby, straight to Cuba for him.

I'm not taking sides with any bomber but I have issues with what seems to be a no exceptions view that you have.

Has every malicious explosion been an act of war? 

Anyway, being reported on NBC this morning, one of the suspected Marathon bombers was shot and killed last night.  The other, his brother, is "on the run".

Chechynians, from what I understand from the reports.  Or at least they're from the area near Chechnya.

The video of the suspects is indeed two young white men.

Who cares what race they are!

They are terrorists.  They killed lots of brown, white, and beige people.
From the Salon article "Prey they are white. . ." to NPR's pre-classification, it seems that liberals really want some white terrorists.

Sorry, but most of us don't care. I just want them dead, that's the only classification I am really concerned about.

Don't for get that Arabs are Caucasian, as are Chechens, so there are already plenty of white terrorists to go around.

I guess context is a foreign concept to you. Conan made the remark that a poster was probably wanting the suspects to be angry white men. I noted they were white. Your preconceptions of liberals and NPR holds you in stasis.

I get 'error'.  Radioreference.com's feed does the same, but they state it's for the safety of the LEO's working the manhunt.  That's completely understandable.

Not to blame. Probably only contributed.
