…from the back of a C-130 at 30,000 feet.
Despite the mounting evidence against him, there are actually people who believe that Boston bombing suspect Dzhokhar “Jahar” Tsarnaev is an innocent patsy being framed by the government.
Sure, the FBI reportedly has photo evidence of 19-year-old Jahar placing what is thought to be one of the bombs next to an 8-year-old boy who was later killed. And of course there’s the whole alleged killing of an MIT campus officer and leading police on a 24-hour manhunt during which he and his brother Tamerlan Tsarnaev reportedly threw explosives and fired multiple rounds at police officers — but that’s not enough to convince some people that he could even possibly be guilty.
Seemingly spitting in the face of the victims of the Boston bombings and everyone else affected by the senseless attack, several people began using the hashtag #FreeJahar on Twitter. Why? Because he’s all innocent and stuff.
Yes. Seriously.
@jtlol Free the world from your absent brain. Please kill yourself. #FreeJahar #IloveJahar

I truly believe that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was set up. The gov’t don’t have enough proof to back up their story so, #PrayingForJahar #FreeJahar

Just sayin’, I hope this kid gets treated fairly. The US can be a a bunch of drama queens. Bathing in the fear and loathing. #FreeJahar

If you have been paying any attention to the news, you’d find how contradicting it is. We should fight for @j_tsar ‘s innocence #FreeJahar

He was either set up or did nothing at all…either way he is INNOCENT! Free @j_tsar #freejahar #FreeDzhokhar

I’m reluctant to say that terror apologists are coming out of the woodwork, because that’s an insult to insects. #FreeJahar from breathing.

Another reason to be glad for the invention of Twitter: It makes terror apologists much easier to track.
