Bx. idiots beat up ‘Arab’ in revenge

 

A Bangladeshi man out for dinner at a Bronx restaurant was viciously beaten hours after the Boston Marathon bombing by thugs who called him “a f--king Arab” before pummeling him to the ground, sources said.

 

Abdullah Faruque, 30 — a native of the South Asian country who grew up in The Bronx — was at Applebee’s on Exterior Avenue in Melrose at about 11:30 p.m. Monday when he went outside for a smoke.

 

Three or four Hispanic males he’d noticed drinking at the bar followed him and angrily got in his face, he recalled yesterday.

“One of the guys asked if I was Arab. I just shook my head, said like, ‘Yeah, whatever.’ I didn’t even know that [the] Boston [bombing] happened because I had a busy day,” Faruque said.

 

He turned to head back inside as one of the men snarled, “Yeah, he’s a f--king Arab,” and the gang pounced, punching him on the head and body, dislocating his left shoulder and leaving him semiconscious.

Well this is fucked up.

Apparently according to that article, the shooting of the Gurudwara is classified as "at least one murder".

 

But seriously, who didn't see that coming? At least he didn't get pushed in front of a subway or shot into oblivion. I'm pretty thankful I don't live in America right about now.

My neighbor's son is white and is an institutional mental patient with a history for injuring a 37 year old man to near death and he wasn't beat up. Just tazed. What a fucked up world we live in when people don't get the equal opportunity of being beaten the crap out of each other regardless of race, creed, sexuality, and what have you.

Apparently there has also now been a shooting at MIT in Boston

 

America seems like a REAL SAFE country to be living in.......

 

Glad I live where I do tbh. Some people just live to cause death. Heartless pricks.

Breaking news.

 

Shitload of stuff has happened in the past few hours. Basically the photos of the suspects were released, an MIT guard was shot and killed.

 

In the midst of the commotion, one of the suspects was taken and died in hospital. The other suspect is still at large and armed.

It's a pity they didn't manage to take the first one alive so we could possibly get some kind of 'explanation' for their actions. They don't really seem the most likely people to become terrorists judging by what little we know about them.

Yea, and the probability of catching the second suspect isn't too high either judging from his brother's actions.

He's on a boat, he's on a boat, everybody look at him, he's hiding in a boat!

 

I am super impressed by the detective work. Americans are bloodhounds!

My friends are finally going back to their house today, since BPD evacuated part of Boston for the chase-down. They stayed at my house for only around a day. The past week or so has been crazy at Boston, hope everything's ok with you guys.

Did you see their mother and the oldest one were in the TIDE database?

 

Two government officials said the CIA had Zubeidat Tsarnaeva’s name added along with that of her son Tamerlan Tsarnaev after Russia contacted the agency in 2011 with concerns that the two were religious militants about to travel to Russia. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak publicly about the case.
