The friend of the younger brother can go frick himself. You seriously were sad and mad when people were celebrating when that piece of shite was caught? You still called him your friend? frick that guy.

I came away feeling the same. At first, I was somewhat sympathetic to him. I can feel for normal muslims who are just living their lives, who want and have nothing to do with the radical terrorists.

But for him to be upset when he heard that his friend died, and to lash out at people celebrating the pos being possibly dead. frick him to the highest measure, he cared more about his so-called friend who killed multiple people, than the innocent lives that were lost.

That almost makes me bring into question on how innocent the really is. Did the friend truly have no idea that Dzhokar could be capable of this, or was he aware, and simply decided he wouldn't be involved in the murderous plot? I also doubt that he really didnt recognize him from the pictures. It's not like he had on shades like the older brother. Just like the roommates knew, and protected him. He probably knew and tried to protect as well.

Edit: Just read an article about the roommates. LINK

At 5 p.m. on April 18th, the F.B.I. released pictures of the suspected perpetrators of the bombing, lifted from a surveillance tape, and asked for help identifying the suspects. As soon as he saw the first, grainy picture on the news, Kadyrbayev texted his roommate to urge him to come home. Once Tazhayakov arrived, they drove to campus, where they rushed to Tsarnaev’s room in Pine Dale Hall. So did many other students, whose first reaction to the pictures was not to call the authorities but to go ask Dzhokhar himself if he had set off the bombs. Kadyrbayev had even texted Tsarnaev, asking as much: “for real?” Without confirming or denying that he was the bomber, Tsarnaev replied, “If yu want yu can go to my room and take what's there,” accompanied by a smiley face.

So not only did his friends recognize him. But other students on campus did as well. Yet none of them reported him to the police. frick every single one of those kids as far as I'm concerned.
