Also, note the age of these men, I am so certain that "cooking" is at the top of their thoughts.

Quoting: Lady Jane Smith Also, note the age of these men, I am so certain that "cooking" is at the top of their thoughts. Yeah, this story stinks to high heavens! "Alawadhi said he and Alotaibi are students, and that they just completed summer classes at a Michigan university. They bought the pressure cookers at an Arab supermarket in Dearborn, Michigan. Alawadhi said they put the cookers in the back of their car, and drove to Manhattan for a few days of sightseeing fun. Then they planned to drive back home to Idaho." WTF? No pressure cookers in Idaho? I guess they never heard of Boston or eBay! |

luc User ID: 32217014 United States 07/26/2014 02:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The police were justified and I suspect their original suspicions were likely not far off base. Two very young men bought 2 pressure cookers for rice? One cooker would make enough rice to feed several large families. Why 2 cookers? Why did they go out of state to buy them from some Arab market--trying to avoid a paper trail? How could they not know about the Boston bombings-- no T.V., radio, internet, or even someone to talk to? |

Are you retarded??... You missed my point. The point I was trying to make is that they did nothing illegal. I agree the whole course of events is highly suspicious, but we have to adhere to what once made this a great country. In any event, 12+ "Pigs" is a little overboard IMHO. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 54424735 "Precautionary arrests" - What a fucking joke that is... Are you fucking kidding me? What drugs are you on? So if they were really Muslim terrorists with an agenda and the police decided not to investigate the allegations by the doorman because of religious and/or racial differences the shit would hit the fan. Matters like this need investigating even if the suspects are innocent for US national security. |

You can't just "detain" a person because some person says they saw you with a pressure cooker. Don't you get that? I said I agree that the whole situation is highly suspect, but we HAVE to adhere to the Constitution of The United States and one of those rights is to protect against illegal search and seizure. |
