geez u beat me to the punch

but in ur rushing to report the news, you forgot your LINK

 

Watching this on the news right now. Damn!!!

 

This is insane.

 

My link is from BOSTON!

Anyway, better not be terrorists...I always wonder when Im at the Eagles games...'what if"

(It takes an HOUR to get into the Army Navy Game for this reason today alone!)

 

Damn!

 

WTF!!???

I hate to say it but who else would plot an attack like this except terrorists??
Hope it's not, but blowing up bombs in the middle of crowds just to kill civilians sounds right out of the Islamic extremist handbook.

I hope a country like Iran wasn't linked to this attack.

 

A third bomb failed to detonate.

Well I don't put nothing past the White Supremacists loons, either.

And the Olympic bomber? Home grown.

Let's wait and see.

 

My friends coworkers' daughters is there...at the finish line...her husband was running...

3 dead, 20 injuries...

Huff Post has some really graphic pics...lots of reports of people seeing legs blown off.


the explosion...

Keep in mind, this is too close to the OKC bombing dates...

And the Waco burning and Patriot's Day dates...

 

Boston peeps please check in!

 

Who else is in Boston, besides 'Toes?

 

Dunno, maybe some lurkers?

 

Saddening

 

Pics are surfacing all over the place...so incredibly graphic. It always saddens me because you know there are families glued to the tv and internet seeing these images

Reports of Marathon Runners that crossed finish line and continued to run to Mass General Hospital to give blood to victims #PrayforBoston



like with war, hardship truly does have the potential to bring out the very best in people

however instead of someone charging a machine gun to save their squaddies, these guys..after running a marathon mind you, kept on running all the way to the hospital to donate blood to do their part within this mass casualty event

 

Yes very true. Not every next of kin has been informed yet either.

Well a special man just told me they have ID'd a suspect, so at least that's good..hopefully he's the only one setting these off.

i didnt fully screen the video yet, but from what i see it looks pretty raw and unedited

Wow, what a heart-tugger. For those people a huge :freehug:


And this should bring people together too to understand that if nuts and extremists want to try to kill en-mass, they will find a way to do it.
