Watching this on TV was insightful: They locked down the entire city of Boston, told in fact gave orders for everyone to stay inside, not come out while they (the GOVERNMENT) marshaled forces and we have no idea how many and where from, but you can bet it a lot from US, state etc. I did see a few military uniforms running around, which scares me to no end. I am seeing more and more of this.
Then we watched this thing play out on TV for a couple of days...REALLY, how many 1000's of troopers chasing a 19 yr kid who is bleeding and stealing cars, tossing bombs.
Then is found in a boat BECAUSE a home owner called it in!!!!!!
Sorry folks I do not see this as some finely tuned operation. I did see a lot of folks trying to get their mug on camera and be label as hero's.
I have seen a lot of hero's on my life and most were dead. But hero worship by the media is getting out of control. First no one is a hero for doing their JOB. I saw a lot o death on the battlefield on both sides of the fight. Most died doing their job out there and all too often they died because they did something dumb...like Joe, Joe was ALWAYS sticking his head up and looking around. Can't say how many times we told him, keep your head down. He would not do it, which led to more and longer viewing time till he took it between the eyes.
If there is a frying pan fire and 10 firemen show up the media is fawning over how they are hero's...not a hero for doing you job. In firemen's case the biggest heroes I have seen in years were the VOLUNTEER fireman in West Texas. Takes a lot of guts to volunteer to walk into a burning building that may explode, little different when you are getting paid 6 figures, full retirement after 25 years and only work 1 out of every 3 days and the average fireman will never see a major fire in their career.
Point is we are seeing and hearing our great and wonderful the govt is and they are going to 'serve and protect' us, when in fact its just the opssite:
"According to American Police Beat, the average response time for an emergency call is 10 minutes. Atlanta has the worst response time with 11 to 12 minutes and Nashville comes in at a lightning speed of 9 minutes. The Department of Justice, with their statistical prowess, reports that the best response time is 4 minutes and the worst over 1 hour."

The message (end game if you will) is you don't need guns, govt will take care of you...BS!!!
Even at the very best of response time of 4 min it does not compare with my AR 10T at 2400 feet in range or over 1/2 mile. and 2800 feet per second.
There is a LOT more to this story than we are seeing and hearing at this time and like Benghazi we are going to only hear what the govt wants us to hear and the rest will be buried.
Now I am am hearing calls for a 'relief fund' for the families of the people killed. Sorry folks, I know I have always donated and did so generously for the families of 9/11 only to find out most families were not needy to begin with and average payout* was $3-$7 million tax free dollars...I only wanted to help those in need, not provide them with instant retirement and lead the life of a jet setting celebrity.
* Not sure why the difference in payout to different folks? Trying to find out who and why is another group of facts and information that has been shrouded in secrecy...wonder why???
