Boston police telling folks to stay away from trash cans on race route, race has been postponed.

Second explosion went off. whdh has footage of the first explosion. It takes a lot of power to give the news crews what they need.

The main part of the race had already ended; it was only the late finishers and whoever was there to greet them who were still around.


If this was a bomb, and that has yet to be determined, it's strange that it was timed for after the crowds had thinned.

the one thing I find heartening about the American spirit:

Pictures from the scene, moments after the explosion, Police, firemen, soldiers, and yellow jacketed volunteer course workers rushing in to clear debris off of victims.

What I find disgusting: Our resident FAR right wingers jumping to the conclusion that it was a Muslim terrorist plot. Come on, if it truly was, the bombs would have gone off hour earlier, plus...they would have done it at Fenway Park! Dumbasses stroking thinking of how they can blame the President for this.

Fortunately, if that's the right word, there were already lots of medical types in the area like you'll see at the end of any marathon, plus police for crowd control, etc.

I've often thought about blowing up Fenway Park myself, but that's another story.

I have no doubt politics is at the forefront of the minds of those who have nothing else going on in their lives but politics. Something like the unity of 9/11 (not that this is anything resembling that scale) could never happen with a Democratic president, obviously.
 
While I haven't declared it Muslim yet, I find it difficult to believe these were random explosions. Guess we'll know by this afternoon.
 
Reports are that there were two bombs and the injured include people missing limbs. Of course early reports can easily be inaccurate.

Oh obviously...though if there was a Democrat president on 9/11 he would have listened to warnings about Osama Bin Laden. But that's just Monday Morning Quarterbacking :rolleyes:

I can't take those on the GB that all they do is spew political views that aren't theirs, just regurgitate Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck, et al.

It would be one hell of a coincidence for it to be random AND at the finish line of a marathon, but weirder things have happened.

As for motive or who planted the hypothetical bomb, it's anyone's guess, but we should keep in mind that it's Patriot's Day, and who in our modern politics takes a special interest in that day (I'm really shocked no one on TV has made that connection yet).

stfu, those warnings were around during Clinton as well and he didn't kill OBL when he could

STFU
 
Bombs ? It is much too early to say that there were bombs. There are other reasons for the explosions, that are possible.

Wolf Blitzer brought it up, being the devil's advocate. MSNBC, CNN, and ESPN all are not jumping the gun like some in the GB - Jihad, Vette - and blaming Muslim terrorists.

I'm of the school of thinking if it were Muslims, they'd know when to set it of, when the top runners would be crossing the finish line. Kinda of makes you wonder if it was a "patriot" group. Just saying.
 
Horrible news, ATTACKS in Boston to interupt COLOREDCUNTS next vacation

cause the PATRIOTS wanted to kill the SLOW POKES

STFU,
 
I tend to forget how unused Americans are to this kind of thing. Used to be a nearly daily occurrence in Britain.
