Merged Boston Marathon CTs

A coworker of mine had been going berserk over every little piece of misinformation he has stumbled across (between you and me, he should really spend less time on BS fringe sites and more time doing his job). About two hours after the incident he grimly informed me that 12 people were dead and the bomber was in custody:boggled:

On Tuesday he excitedly showed me this video that he thinks is an inept Photoshop/airbrushing job of cleaning blood/gore from the video.



I asked him why "they" airbrushed out the gore after the guy in the foreground walks by, but not before. He said they must have forgotten to. He was also hot and bothered over the "Family Guy" thing.

His bottomless credulity depresses me, but then a lot of things depress me, lately.

So the gore I saw with my own eyes was just photoshopped on the sidewalk according to your coworker? I have weird eyesight!

Those clips are removed from youtube now. What was the difference between them?

In the "Family Guy Predicted the Boston Explosions" clip, Peter is asked how he won the Boston Marathon - it then cuts in a clip from a different episode where Peter becomes Muslim and accidentally becomes involved in a terrorist plot to blow up a bridge, he dials a number and sets off two bombs.

In the original, Peter won the marathon by driving a car and running over the runners. Even in the fake clip there's an image of him driving the car across the finish line.

no, it's actually the same Episode (Turban Cowboy), but they edited it so after the Marathon interview the part with the mobile phone Comes, which normally Comes much later.

With every tragedy, conspiracy theorists take the oppurtunity more and more too create and spread lies as fast as they can.
 
Stupid theory #99101201 from a co-worker. She's big into psychics, I have no idea where she got this from.

The bomber was a runner who was pissed they raised the standards for race this year so that he didn't qualify and this was his revenge.

Yes you are right. I recalled it being from two different episodes for some reason.

I'm sure that a law to ban the sale of pressure cookers will be passed any day now.

Yes, it was a giant conspiracy to get all US citizens to register their pressure cookers, ball bearings and nails.

When pressure cookers are outlawed only outlaws will have pressure cookers!

OMG, they are trying to take away our rights to pressure cook! :p
 
This is a first, I haven't seen any conspiracy theorists blame the bombings on the Jews.
Usually every other conspiracy loon comes down to blaming Jews for everything, be it 9/11 or anything else

anyone notice when MA governor Deval Patrick gave a press conference after the bombings, one of the first questions was from a conspiracy theorist nutcase, asking if the bombings were a false flag operation?
Do the conspiracy theorists have any idea how foolish they look?

How long before the conspiracy crazies insist that the victims were in on it, or never even existed?

I watched the press conference on Monday night with the doctor from Mass General. This was the gist of part of it:

Reporter: So the training you received from the Israeli military helped prepare you for this?
Doctor (looking at reporter like he's nuts): I was never trained by Israeli anything.

DISCLAIMER: quotes not exact. I'll see if I can find a transcript.

ETA: Here it is. Dr. Peter Fagenholz.

http://www.necn.com/04/15/13/Mass-G...inju/landing.html?blockID=837873&feedID=11106

At 9:10
Reporter: Your colleague had mentioned you were all trained by Israeli disaster first responders. How did that help today?
Doctor Fagenholz: I was not trained by Israeli disaster responders.

Obviously a Mossad operation and he's covering it up.

Overheard on SEMO campus:
Guy: I find it odd how many of the doctors interviewed at the Boston hospitals are Jews.

Girl: You find it odd that there are a bunch of Jewish doctors in... that there are a bunch of Jewish doctors?


Not quite a ct but funny.
 
Edit: Nevermind found what I was looking for in this thread. Thanks for all the debunking! :)

Seems the conspiracy theory I am running into right now is that the police had prior knowledge of the blasts, and that is why they deployed bomb sniffing dogs prior to the race.

How does this make sense? If the bombing were an inside job, why deploy bomb sniffing dogs in advance? Are you trying to screw up your own inside job?

The CT nuts want the government to be all powerful and incompetent at the same time.
 
what is the source for bomb sniffing dogs before the race? i have heard that now a few times, but seen no source for it.

I think the obvious answer is that the dogs planned the whole thing and wanted their handlers to feel relaxed at the finish line so the sniffer dog's confederates could plant the bombs and then they would sniff right past the them. It was right under their nose the whole time!

Clues forum has found another "smoking gun."

Daily news doctored a photo to make it less gruesome.

MSNBC just said the FBI has video of person setting down bag.
