Huh? Elaborate, please.

After his conviction Timothy McVeigh stopped discussing his whereabouts and activities leading up to the bombing. We will never know about some of the people that he encountered and perhaps discussed his plan with.

Polls in MA have consistently shown that the residents favor a life sentence over death.

Polls nationally favor the DP over a life sentence.

These polls are Re: Tsarnaev, btw.

That's odd, I was listening to talk radio today, there was overwhelming calls for life, but I guess it will be up to the jury.


Nationally there is a slight lead in favor of the DP for him. That is based on 5 hours ago.

Sydney: You may have misread (or I post incoherently{#emotions_dlg.laugh}) The national polls are not MA residents. Or maybe you did not misread.

Yikes, I'm tired from moving.{#emotions_dlg.blush}

I thought he was involved with a militia.

I find it strange that those whose posts are full of revenge can't understand that others who feel their people have been unfairly attacked, some killed, feel the same way. If it's you it's justice if it's them it's terrorism.

He was, however according to the FBI in a book I read recently, there were several foreign people residing there that have never been identified.

Re: Boston Bomber found guilty on all counts!!!

I believe he deserves the death penalty. Although he tried to claim that the bombings were the result of his brother's influence, he showed his true murderous self when he ran over his brother trying to escape police and save his own skin. If not death, then he should get life in totally solitary confinement. That way, he can't swap ideas and communicate with other terrorists while in jail.
