Nobody took any rights away, the bombers took some peoples lives and therefore forfeit their own imo. The Boston PD sent out a PLEA for citizens to stay indoors and they did.

People are mad that the citizens of Boston did what the cops asked them to do. Maybe it is hard for them to comprehend an entire city with class?

Either way, who cares - stay classy Boston!

You got this Texans respect!
