I hope it's not anyone that was targeted as a potential suspect by people on social media, just to prove that, hey, maybe we shouldn't be falsely accusing people after all.

That tinfoil hat-wearing douchebag that was yelling "omgz Info Wars knows the REAL truth...CONSPIRACY, CONSPIRACY, CONSPIRACY" from the crowd was the epitome of fucking annoying.
Is it wrong I'm sitting here thinking "please be white"? Because I really can't handle my FB feed if they're not.
Yeah, I showed the pictures to DH and he said, "Dammit. They look neither old nor white." If it had been an old white guy, it would be domestic terrorism and we could call it a day. Get ready for weeks or months on end of "religion of peace, my ass."

Maybe they were Italian descent or Hispanic....
Oh, that's certainly possible. It doesn't matter though. Not to the people who would say that. The only thing that would prevent the Islam-is-after-us fear mongering is photos of a crazy old white guy.
Is the video clearer than those pics? Because those pics could be of any non-black person, so I'm not sure how we're supposed to recognize those guys
I guess we just have to wait for someone in the FBI to stand next to someone at a computer and say, "Enhance that. Enhance that again. Again. Okay. There they are, ladies and gentlemen."
Yeah, I'm surprised this dude would one-shoulder a bag WITH A BOMB in it. But maybe I'm just not familiar enough with how these bombs work...
The one-shoulder backpack looks pretty full. And I was able to carry my backpack full of books on one shoulder when I was in high school (yes, I'm from the one-shoulder generation), and that must have weighed at least 30 lbs on a regular basis.

Based on the sheer number of people carrying backpacks in the crowd that day, I'm guessing there's something besides just the fact that they're carrying backpacks that's making the FBI zero in on these two. Hopefully they have some good intel.
