You aren't sure chanting USA makes much sense?
After an entire city was put on lockdown by two who set off explosions for the sole purpose of killing citizens of the USA?

See that's the problems with you guys at Harvard. You don't understand this city. You aren't from here and you won't stay here.

My family came here, to Boston, over 100 years ago. I've stood at that finish line, my fiancé has, my parents have, my grandparents have. I know people affected.
If you took the time to read my post you would have clearly seen that the chanting of USA was an emotional response after the capture of someone who was on the loose and aiming to harm more.

And his ideology included deep anti-U.S. sentiment.


The impromptu celebrations on Friday night have nothing to do with personal freedoms or 9/11 - nor was it a matter of things making "sense". It was pure emotion.

Not a classroom at Harvard, hoop.

If you continued to read you would have seen:
'But after all the celebrating I think many of us in Boston are starting to sober up again and are finally able to look back to the victims of this horrific act. "



No one said this was a good day for America. It was a horrible day. No one was chanting USA and saying "hey what an amazing day for America". No.


And of course the mood immediately sobered the next day and many who had been in the raucous crowd were truly with heavy heart and attended the memorial at Berkeley street - where I assure you, no chanting was heard.

The mood in Back Bay remains very somber. Thoughts are again with the victims.



So to be frank,
Take your Harvard elitism elsewhere and while you're at it, book a flight back to California.
