That's right. They did not rob the store. The surveillance video proved it. It was just a coincidence that they were near.
It was originally reported that murdered Patrol Officer Sean A. Collier was responding to a robbery at a 7-Eleven. But the robbery that had initially been attributed to the Tsarnaev brothers in the media was then reported to be a separate incident, even though the brothers had been in the 7-Eleven at roughly the same time. What a coincidence! If one/both did I imagine it was as to not leave a trail. Fugitives don't often use an ATM. I guess they could have had some money with them - I dunno.
Yes, but becoming just as much of a fundamentalist as Osama bin Laden doesn't automatically motivate someone to hate the US. I don't know of any government on earth that has done more to oppress the free practice of Islam than the atheist government of Russia, and the USSR before it. So the motivation picture is still fuzzy to me. I think the broader and sadder point is that terrorism of any kind almost never accomplishes what the perpetrators want it to accomplish, making the whole thing a pointless waste.
This UNCONFIRMED video which we are told appeared on Brazilian TV earlier today appears to have been shot at the scene of the Boston Police Dept’s arrest of suspect bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev – the video clearly shows the 26 year old being escorted to BPD vehicle whilst handcuffed and not wounded, which in total contradiction to official reports which claim the suspect was shot by police and then run-over by his younger brother in a stolen SUV in Sommerville, MA. Please bookmark and share this video, and do continue to ask questions about what happened on the evening April 18th and the morning of April 19th, 2013, so the public can better determine the truth of all that really happened. http://b4in.info/b29T Video Of Tamerlan Tsarnaev NAKED, Handcuffed,Walking Alive! So How Did His Body End Up Like This?
#14 Why did U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry have a private meeting with a Saudi foreign minister shortly after Abdulrahman Ali Alharbi was identified as a potential suspect? #15 Why did Barack Obama hold an unscheduled meeting with the ambassador from Saudi Arabia shortly after Abdulrahman Ali Alharbi was identified as a potential suspect? #16 Why did Michelle Obama visit Abdulrahman Ali Alharbi in the hospital? #17 Why did numerous mainstream media outlets openly suggest that “right-wing extremists” were behind the bombings in the immediate aftermath of the attack? BEHOLD: She is the same actor that "was already dead" in Sandy Hook FFA !! Actor hold detonator in his hand running away before the explosion?

Here's an article that debunks the crazy conspiracy theories, like what roonei posted. From Wired magazine:
The official injury total is up to 273. It took some time for everyone to be counted because quite a few people with less serious injuries went somewhere other than an ER at a major hospital. The problem I have with this kind of statistical information is that someone who lost both legs is counted the same as a victim who only needed three stitches and a tetanus shot. Because most of the force of these two bombs was down low, there were a lot of extreme leg injuries resulting in amputations. The best number I've been able to find online is "at least 14".
There's no specificity in reporting, or much of anything these days. And people wonder why we're so dumb. Our brains get no practice processing higher information.
traumatic amputations... ugh. i wonder if any of these people are going to be unable to return to their jobs because of their injuries?
The reporting of injuries is the same here as it is for the awarding of purple hearts by the military. I know a guy in the Vietnam War who was a tank commander. His tank was hit and another tank pulled alongside to give support and cover. When he stuck his head up out of the turret the other tank fired its cannon and the flame from the barrel hit him in the face setting his mustache on fire. He hit his mustache with his hand to put out the fire and gave himself a bloody nose. As blood was spilled, he got a purple heart.
I realize that there probably isn't a better way to handle the statistics. I only brought it up because this particular bombing is light on fatalities but heavy on serious injuries. A single traffic accident often results in three or more deaths, but 14 leg amputations is probably more than most hospital ER's see in a month, and 274 total injuries is a lot by any peacetime standard. In a way, it makes better sense to think of this attack as a mass maiming rather than a mass murder. It now appears that all of the wounded are going to survive.
