Boston Bombers, closing the gap




After this week’s tragic events, it should feel like a relief that we have finally found these suspected bombers. For all the families that have been changed and hurt by these men, it will be a true victory when we capture and execute these men. But until we do have both men, the hunt will continue. As of April 19th, one of the suspected bombers has been killed by gunfire in a police shootout where a security Guard lost his life as well. Even more recently, the 2nd bomber is suspected to be in a highly populated, but small section of Boston has been closed down to prevent the 2nd bomber from escaping once again. This will eventually lead to one of two outcomes; the bomber dies from police and or self-inflicted wounds or he is taken into custody. With one of the two men already dead, it would not help anyone if the 2nd bomber dies. Not only would it bring up more questions of why, but it would not give any closing to the victims of this violent attack.
 

This thing that we call a tragedy needs to be taken down a notch. Yes these men are awful people and yes they do deserve to die but this event has been scaled WAY out of proportion by the media. When you have 2.. 3 even 4 news outlets reporting on false information just to create a story, they are being more a pain then anything. Aside from false information made public by large news organizations, you have this whole topic being made into another 9/11 sob story. Everything is fine until the.. Oh geese… The Terrorists attack.. In other news,there was another massive explosion in Texas that killed some 35 people vs the 3 people that died in the Boston Marathon and I don’t seen the government going out of their way and spending all possible resources to find the cause of this explosion. So why is it that unless someone is immediately accountable to these horrific actions, that it will determine the amount of news coverage>The publicity it gets>The amount of time and energy the government will put into it.
