Ugh, hate to kind of defend Alex Jones, but most of his content is available for free, so its not a money grab per se. I think the guy is literally bat####. Glenn Beck making $85 million last year, now there's a cash grab.
Cnn.com is also free, and they certainly aren't relying on donations. Page views generate revenue.

Right, but I suppose everyone has to eat. I mentioned Beck, who charges $10 a month for his stuff, on top of making money off banner ads, sales of his books and his merch (sadly thats not a joke, he has merch).
I guess my bigger point is Alex Jones isn't doing this for the money per se, I think its cause he's bat####, whereas Glenn Beck is only doing it for the money.

His content might be available for free, but his appearance fees increase with his popularity. He's on a syndicated radio network that pays him based on his popularity and probably the ad buys for his time slot.
The infowars crap, and some other content that is a fishhook to lure the suckers in.
Controversy creates cash. Unfortunately Jones deals with an especially vulnerable segment of society, he prays on the paranoid, the scared and the possibly mentally ill.

Of course, this is after he had proof that a 'bad bad bad Saudi man' was hired by the US gov't to commit the bombing. Monday, it was the radical Muslims again, funded by the Saudis. Oh, and the 19 year old is 'recruiting' US nationals so they can't be traced to the radicals when they commit terrorist acts, etc.
I'm sure this has Alex Jones and the likes of spiteface just about wetting their lacy little undies...
“This case is ripe for somebody who’s got the courage to stand up and talk about the system and the railroading of criminal defendants,” Fieger said. “He’s been denied the right to a fair trial. And America’s ...cheering like it was some kind of sporting event. That wasn’t a very flattering image to the rest of the world. Cheering like they won the World Series.”
Maybe, but I would argue that they weren't cheering like it was a sporting event, they were cheering that this psycho sub human was captured after helping to murder 4 people, wound hundreds, and put people into a sense of fear.
I would prefer that the government take the death penalty off of the table, and move for the far more soul killing life in a supermax.
There's no way this monster is getting anything but either death or he's never seeing freedom.

if you (looking towards the likes of cpt crunch et al) are deluded enough to believe everything your government (or the US govt) feeds you through the media, then you deserve to be labelled as a naive american/canadian by the rest of the world.

Who's a cute little conspiracy theorist? Who's a cute little conspiracy theorist? Aww, little spiteface, cute little conspiracy theorist. *tickles spiteface under the chin*
It's ok. Those men in the white coats are nice men. And they have a really nice cocktail for you.

Ba hahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahaha
Deep breath because my kidneys hurt
ba ha hah ahahahahahahahahaha
If you actually believe the bullsh%t conspiracy theories floating around from this you deserve to be labeled as a completely gullible fool.
The CIA didn't do this bombing, the Jews didn't do the bombing, a rogue faction of alien influenced government officials didn't do this, this wasn't a conspiracy by anyone except a couple of hate filled ####### monsters who deserve nothing but societies contempt. Personally I am saddened by the death of the older brother, I wanted to see him on trial.
I take it as a compliment that you are not on my side and calling me out based on the stupidity of the video and the picture page that you posted up here and called "Interesting"
I call them emotionally and intellectually ######ed.
Stop reading Tom Clancy novels, stop watching old reruns of the X-files and rejoin the rest of us in a rational reality.
Again thanks for calling me out, I feel better now that I know I'm not batsh%t insane.
Please please please, put me on your ignore list.

Boston Marathon bombing suspect Dzhokhar Tsarnaev informed investigators that he and his brother were not directed by a foreign terrorist organization. Instead, they were “self-radicalized” and motivated to kill, in part, by U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Washington Post reported.
The 19-year-old also acknowledged his role in the attack while being questioned by investigators in his hospital bed, the report said. Tsarnaev, who has a gunshot wound to the throat and was sedated, responded in writing. He also suffered gunshot wounds in the head, neck, legs and hand during a late-night shootout in Watertown, Mass.

If you think that the state shouldn't have the right to execute people with the 'death penalty', and they absolutely shouldnt', then you can't change the rules in a situation like this.
The fact is that the US has screwed up so many times killing innocent people with the death penalty that it simply shouldn't be an option anymore.
Give the guy a fair trial, a good lawyer, and put him through the motions. Change him with everything the law has to offer, and then throw him into a 4x8 cell in a supermax for the rest of his very long life.
Continuing the cycle of violence solves absolutely nothing.
And he has the constitutional right to his Miranda rights. I don't care how much of a scumbag he is, the law is the law and it shouldn't be changed because he committed a bigger atrocity than a guy who murders his wife.
Either we follow the rule of law or we might as well screw liberty, JUSTICE and freedom for all.

I don't think I was arguing anything but.
The prosecution should take the death penalty off of the table, that way they could show some mercy to this person, while at the same time not making him a martyr to any cause.
Absolutely give him a fair trial.
If he wants to cooperate, let him cut a deal, because frankly any deal is still going to ensure life in prison with no chance of parole.
I don't know where the circle of violence comes into play, it just seems to me that in this specific case these two perpetrated the circle of violence when they decided that they wanted to bomb ordinary innocent people at a sporting event in a country that seems to have given them every opportunity.
They are reprehensible, and their crime cannot be redeemed, but the American's would be smart not to simply revenge themselves upon the last remaining brother, but allow him to keep his miserable life.
For what it is.

Wow and he was still able to get out of the boat unassisted, maybe he is an alien or a genetically created Russian super spy.

There is a logical fallacy in there somewhere
