Boston bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, now in police custody and possibly facing the death penalty, has an army of supporters and Twitter followers, posting under hashtag #FreeJahar.

“Yes i like Justin Bieber and i like Jahar but that has nothing to do with why i support him. I know hes innocent, he is far too beautiful,” one girl says.

According to the NY Post, they defend his innocence under the premise that he wasn't aware of the consequences of his actions.

The followers are mostly teenage girls, one of whom plans on tattooing a quote by Tsarnaev on the inside of her arm.

“If you have the knowledge and the inspiration all that’s left is to take action,” it reads.

The quote does, however, make me believe that he was very much convinced that he was doing the right thing. Tell me your take on the matter in the comments section.
