Boston Bombing -- Who Did It?

[Doppel]

How many middle eastern people have you interacted with daily to know what features are prevailiant in that ethnicity to rule out that group?

They look like white frat boys to you because that's what they wanted everyone to think they were. Look at the facial features and not their dress code.

One guy looks white because his skin is very fair, the guy in the white hat. The other guy is either tanned or does have darker skin, though.

EDIT: Meh I dunno it is hard to tell, it's too bad the image quality sucks.

The fake suspects from earlier today were much easier to identify!

Look at his hands in the video where they are walking towards the camera (not taking the turn)

Yeah he sticks his left hand in his pocket and takes it out again.

That's quite a stretch to say that he looks nervous as hell. If you picked any random footage of someone and told the viewer that the subject of the video was about to do something terrible I bet the viewer would pick up on imaginary cues. Conformation bias?

 

[PottedMeat]

looks like a 'gilligan' to me

Gilligan?

 

[waggy]

first guy looks dark skinned. the 2nd guy (white hat) looks like he has olive skin.

both look like typical college boys.

Looks like Bill or Ted (never can remember which is which) to me.

A few of the pics, I'm getting them off of boston.com

Man that guy looks like every Serbian kid I knew growing up. Same features.

No, he fiddles with his fingers. It's about as plain a sight as anyone could probably show someone. If the frame rate were higher I would bet the last portion as him knocking his fists together righ hand under the left which was coming down on the right.

I predict that FBI knows their identity within 24 hours (and probably tonight). You can't spend time in the country without somebody seeing you in day to day life and knowing your face.

Even if the suspects managed to leave the country this week it really won't matter.

Dark black hair
Dark black bushy eyebrows
Longer nose with curved bridge

I agree I wish it was clearer but it was pretty obvious to me he looked like his background was from the middle east.

Gilligan?

You've never heard of gilligan from gilligans island? You must be young

 

[Zeze]

The white cap guy looks like a typical white preppy frat boy.

 

[WelshBloke]

Or not American?

Edit: But thanks for explaining. :thumbup:

Yea they will have them locked down by the morning.

I agree that he could be middle-eastern, but I know a couple of Greek guys that have very similar facial features. Greece is certainly geographically close...but it's not the middle east.

Oh, then you guys should be getting it soon

 

[WelshBloke]

Any good?

Although I shouldn't complain either way, you did take Piers Morgan off our hands and for this you have our eternal gratitude.

I'm not saying that there is not some bias in my reasoning. Going by facial features, our war on radical islam, and history I am putting 2 and 2 together.

I'll admit, if he is a Greek national I would be devastated because nothing turns me on more than a bunch of greesed up greeks.

I thought he made a statement that if some form of gun legislation was not passed he wouldnt need to be kicked out of the country he would leave on his own accord? Not entirely sure but ask Spidey or someone following that, you might be getting him back soon

I saw Gillian on a USAir flight out of Lewisburg, WV in the late nineties and he looked almost the same, just ultra white hair.

 

[Darwin333]

Yep. Looks like middle eastern muslim terrorists to me.

Really? The guy with the backwards hat sure doesn't look like he is of middle eastern decent...

 

[finglobes]

Iranians

Awww crap. Well that's an argument for gun control anyway (although not from your side I suppose). Bet he doesn't leave though, he seems much more successful over your side than ours.

 

[Baasha]

From the pictures of the suspects, I'd have to say either Pakistani, Bangladeshi (first guy who is somewhat dark-skinned), and/or Iranian (2nd guy).

If I had to choose *one* country of origin, well, then it's easy - Pakistan.

America has been supporting Pakistan for 6 decades. Wonder how that's working out? :whiste: Similar to the rat British I presume!

He is with CNN so not really sure if I call that success, the only people who watch that are government operations centers, airports and waiting rooms.
