I can assure you it isn't. Can't even smell any smoke.
That dude seriously failed geography. I'm relatively close in Texas terms, and it's two hours from here.

| Post subject: | Boston Marathon bombing |
About half an hour ago, two IEDs detonated near or under the spectators stands at the finish line in Boston. So far, three confirmed dead and 20-30 injured. Reports of a third device being found in front of the Mandarin Hotel as well as a possible attack on the JFK library are getting more info as it's brought in. If you're near Boston & can donate blood, they're asking for people to do so. [edit] JFK fire was found to be accidental, no relation to the bombs.. Two more devices found near the marathon area though.[/edit] |

Currently there is an individual in custody, a Saudi national who was near the scene. An individual at the scene thought he was acting suspiciously, tackled him and turned him over to the police. He's being cooperative with the police, and denying involvement. They are saying it is "too early to consider him a suspect". They are also saying a third bomb was found unexploded and has been disarmed. |

Just heard that Boston's Police Commissioner says they have no suspects in custody. Conspiracy theorists are going batshit insane blaming this on the "tea party's efforts to put the tsa into sports events" and other things. |

Well, as I said he's not considered a suspect, just a person of interest. |

Yes, families from Newtown were there. The last mile of the race was dedicated to them. Paul, fair point. I'm donating blood again as soon as possible. But then, I donate as often as I can anyway. |

My thoughts go out to all the victims and relatives, and all the residents of Boston who have now joined the tragic list of targets of terrorism. As to persons of interest, there will be dozens, just because someone was seen "With a backpack" or "With a parcel", or unfortunately just for "He looked Middle Eastern and was acting shifty". Police will talk to them all, but that's a long way from being any kind of suspect. Additional info - appears the Westboro Baptist Church have threatened to picket funerals of the bomb victims, which the infamous hacker's group Anonymous have suggested would be a "bad idea". |

Update: Person of interest identified placing backpack at scene of a detonation, no arrests yet (despite what cnn's insistence otherwise). Information quite possibly discovered & passed to officials by -4chan- of all places. |

Westboro versus Anonymous is sort of our real life Aliens Versus Predator. But truth be told, I do not even know what to say about any of this that occurred. For the time being, sending out thoughts and yes, even prayers for the victims and their families of this terrorist act. Heck I was talking to one of my customers just today, and found out he actually lives there in Boston. Even being there though, he really did not know much more than any of us, he happens to just be closer to it all. |

Read they arrested the guy they think was sending out the Ricin. He lived in Mississippi, and most certainly a very troubled individual, even if he DID NOT send the letters out. |

It was an explosion following a fire in a fertilizer plant. Fire in a volatile environment tends to do that. Don't go making it anything more than it is, which right now is not being considered more than a really unfortunate accident. |

I never said it wasn't an accident. just said it was odd timing. it'd be odd timing if it'd happened on Dec 21st of last year or anything people know about. Some dink is on twitter demanding everyone stop everything & glue their faces to the tv as if it'd do a damned bit of good..because in his words; "All of Texas is on fire" |

Oh, I know he's full of it.. he's going round berating several of the people I follow on how "your life is unimportant, DO WHAT I SAY BECAUSE I SAY IT!" Someone was complaining of chest pains, he went after them with "Oh, your tummy hurts? boo farking hoo, TEXAS IS ON FIRE!" I reported him & blocked. people like that need to step back for a moment. <.< I can understand what people nearby are probably going through with the chance of the second silo going off.. A while back (when I lived in Jersey) there was a big fire next door to a big fuel tank farm, and I lived not too far from it. They'd already evacuated a "safe distance" around it, but we still had to be ready to go at a moments notice just in case it got any closer than it was to the tanks. |

We did a group project on these frakkers for my Social Deviant Behavior class. They're pretty messed up. They think that my brothers and sisters overseas are getting blown up by IED's because God's mad at them for defending the freedom of gays. Somehow, this doesn't quite mesh with the God of the Bible.  Sorry about the rant, mods. Plz, no banhammers!!!

ugh.. some twit just walked into a Los Angeles Hooters restaraunt set down a backpack & claimed it was a bomb.. Then when the cops jumped him said "It's just a joke guys, come on!" I hope that he "falls down" on the way to the squad car. <.< |
