Andy, I hope they are alright , maybe just got routed someplace else hopefully.
I heard this on the radio on my way home the whole drive back from Weston, on rt 24 while I was headed south, about 7-8 cruisers were speeding towards Boston on the northbound side.
Unbelievable what kind of sick people would do these kinds of things  just awful.
Thoughts and prayers for those injured or killed
I just heard another event happened at the JFK library |
The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.
1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!
It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

They just said Cell phone service has been shut down in Boston due to fear of further devices that could be set off with a cell phone.
that will make finding people even harder obviously
definitely terrorists if you ask me, what the hell else would it be

Of course this is an act of terrorism. What's not being mentioned is if it was carried out by Muslim extremists.

Terrible tragedy...many survivors with missing limbs.
I always thought it would happen at a football game where many congragate.
When this calms down who will be blamed for sleeping on the job...where were the bomb sniffing dogs before and during the Marathon?

The act is nothing but pure terrorism.
Those who carried it out are what will have to be determined.
Remember that the Oklahome City bombing was by a homegrown terrorist faction.
Things that make me wonder are that it was Marathon Monday, it is April 15th (tax day) and I believe today is Patriots Day.
Unfortunately sickos will attach themselves to whatever day/event will give them the most coverage.
Whoever/whomever is responsible, their lives aren't worth spit WHEN they are caught!
My prayers go out to all the INNOCENT victims that were affected by this act of cowardice.

My guess it is home-grown a s # h # l # s. Wouldn't be surpirsed if it was connected to an incident that happened recently.

Cowards indeed!
I was working on a rooftop all day in Somerville and Didn't hear or see anything.
On the way off the roof my phone was ringing off the hook,my boss,my wife and parents....
The second explosion location is a building I do a lot of work at.
Driving South bound on the X Way traffic was very thin on the North bound(heading into Boston) Stateies,ambulance's under covers were on the double.
Who ever is responsible for this cowardly act should be fillet.

Horrific end to a usually awesome day. I live on the route 4 miles from the start, and its hard to comprehend that one of these happy faces I saw run by, may have lost a loved one today. T&P's to all those families.

I work in Cambridge and take the train out of North Station - decided to walk to North Station rather than the subway ... in part because the Green Line was shut down in sections and it's only a 20-minute walk ... but on that walk there was a lot of confusion, police cars racing from other towns to the scene, other police cars racing in opposite directions, when I got near North Station, cars were undergoing searches at the Garden ... crazy stuff.
But I must say, that the police and fire department did not hesitate to get to the scene to help the injured and ensure people were protected ... despite the criticisms above about no-bomb sniffing dogs being used, I am grateful for our police and fire departments coming to help ... every day these people put themselves in harms way to help protect us ... can't say thank you enough to them.
IMHO - We should be thanking them, not criticizing them.

Too many people complain they want their privacy. We are living in a world where we need to let our govt do what they need to do to protect our lives and have our privacy be 2nd in line. I'd rather be alive and spied on than dead and private. Not saying it would have helped any here by any means. This whole thing is a horrible chit show

It's a new world, not the one I grew up in and certainly not that of the previous generation. IMHO if the founding fathers new what was to come we'd have the instructions on how to change. We need to give up a little,,,, guns for one
I'm pissed off, Gup |
