Oh boy, here we go.
I can't for the life of me guess what their ethnicities might be, but people are saying they look white. With tanned/pale skin and dark hair, it's hard to tell. [editline]18th April 2013[/editline] OP, could you add more pictures of suspect 2?
watch them just be two dudes with backpacks who got unlucky.

-snip, he fixed it-
[QUOTE=archangel125;40330733]Oh, dang, thumbnail that.[/QUOTE] I'm sorry, I didn't realize it was so large. Just changed it to a link.
[QUOTE=explodingape;40330714]watch them just be two dudes with backpacks who got unlucky.[/QUOTE] I'd rather they were checked out than half of Facepunch spout "omg they may be 2 more victims omg harsh cunts" You never know.
Pictures down for anyone else?
I don't want to say I'm happy they are white, but It's good that we aren't immediately blaming anyone of middle-eastern descent.
Did 4chan even speculate these guys? Would be kinda funny if they didn't.
I've never seen such giant low resolution photos in my life.
[QUOTE=VOSK;40330757]I don't want to say I'm happy they are white, but It's good that we aren't immediately blaming anyone of middle-eastern descent.[/QUOTE] That is what I was thinking, I was just afraid to post it because I felt I'd word it in a way that would make me sound like a dickhole.
Why would they be suspects? What evidence do they have other than they have backpacks and hats? [highlight](User was banned for this post ("read the article before replying" - postal))[/highlight]

[QUOTE=No_Excuses;40330762]Did 4chan even speculate these guys? Would be kinda funny if they didn't.[/QUOTE] I remember /pol/ finding someone with a white hat who had a backpack on in one frame and then minutes later was in a crowd of people without a backpack.

[QUOTE=BenJammin';40330779]Why would they be suspects? What evidence do they have other than they have backpacks and hats?[/QUOTE] [quote]The two men were photographed walking together near the finish line of the marathon before the explosions that killed three people and wounded about 180. One of the two men was seen setting down a backpack at the site of the second explosion "within minutes" of the blast, said Special Agent Rick DesLauriers, the head of the FBI's Boston office.[/quote] I'd say that's pretty damn suspicious
[QUOTE=tyanet;40330787]Added the two that best show his face from the link. He's definitely white, in his 20's.[/QUOTE] I hope they find these men soon, and end the goddamn witchhunt that paranoia and 4chan are responsible for.
So, the bombing was perpetrated by...bros?
[QUOTE=archangel125;40330801]I hope they find these men soon, and end the goddamn witchhunt that paranoia and 4chan are responsible for.[/QUOTE] What has 4chan done, exactly?
[QUOTE=BenJammin';40330779]Why would they be suspects? What evidence do they have other than they have backpacks and hats?[/QUOTE] They probably saw them go to the locations and then leave without the backpacks or something.
[QUOTE=Skarr;40330809]What has 4chan done, exactly?[/QUOTE] There was a rumour going around after some cocksucker went to look for Arab-looking men with backpacks and then declared that he'd found the prime suspects. 4chan 'detectives' found out who they were and published the information.
What about that mysterious person on the rooftop?
[QUOTE=archangel125;40330819]There was a rumour going around after some cocksucker went to look for Arab-looking men with backpacks and said he'd found the prime suspects. 4chan 'detectives' found out who they were IRL and published the information.[/QUOTE] It would have been fine had they not practically made it a joke & published the information.
COINCIDENCE?!

[QUOTE=Adarrek;40330830]What about that mysterious person on the rooftop?[/QUOTE] Probably a spectator. People went to the rooftops to watch the race, it really doesn't even look mildly suspicious.
This is bad, this will only lead to innocent people being attacked in the streets by stupid vigilantes.
[QUOTE=Skarr;40330835]It would have been fine had they not practically made it a joke & published the information.[/QUOTE] Those innocent men are in danger because of internet vigilantism.
wtf ricky rubio
[QUOTE=archangel125;40330855]Those innocent men are in danger because of internet vigilantism.[/QUOTE] I am aware. I'm just saying that instead of putting innocent people in danger, they should have tried to do something productive and try to find out who actually did it and then give the info to the appropriate people. That is, however, completely out-of-character for /pol/, though, so I guess it's a stretch that they'd even consider that.
