    Explosions at Boston Marathon finish.

    Just heard it on the news, no link yet available. Some injuries and possible fatalities? Sounds like it could be a terrorist attack?

    Prayers for the injured. Have to wait and see what the evidence shows. My guess would be some home grown nut like the Atlanta Olympic Bomber. Not trying to make light of this.At this early point, it doesn't seem like enough carnage for for Al Qaeda type foreign organization. Either way, a terrible day all around.

    If that turns out to be the cost, it is terrible for all those affected - thoughts and prayers go with them. Indeed there may be some of the injured who do not survive. Still, it could have been worse.

    Reports are never accurate at this point, but there are reports that more explosive devises were found and detonated by Boston PD. That is reported by NBC news, for what it is worth.

    Also, been pointed out by some that this is tax day. To early to tell since we don't no what happened, but it is a thought.

    Re: Explosions at Boston Marathon finish.

    Interesting that if it was timed correctly, it was timed to miss the elite runners.

    Now Boston globe reporting multiple unexploded packages around Boston. Have to be really careful with that kind of report. It is looking more and more amateurish though. It will be tough not to be caught by a camera at some point placing these bombs if this is true. also, if Law enforcement can indeed recover some of the unexploded devises, they should be able to trace materials.

    Reports from Yahoo news were that Newtown families were sitting in the VIP Section. That is almost unbearable. although Newtown Dispatch says Newtown people ssafe. Still .......

    another take

    Authorities ID suspect as Saudi national in marathon bombings, under guard at Boston hospital

    Investigators have a suspect — a Saudi Arabian national — in the horrific Boston Marathon bombings, The Post has learned.

    Law enforcement sources said the 20-year-old suspect was under guard at an undisclosed Boston hospital.

    It was not immediately clear why the man was hospitalized and whether he was injured in the attack or in his apprehension.

    The man was caught less than two hours after the 2:50 p.m. bombing on the finish line of the race, in the heart of Boston.

    In addition, Boston police have has surveillance video of someone bringing multiple backpacks to blast site, according to CBS News.

    Police also confirmed that there was a third explosion, at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum. It was not immediately clear how much damage was done or whether it was related to the bombings at the marathon finish line.

    The library bombing occurred about 4:30 p.m. and more than a mile from the marathon.

    Anyone else shocked that a Saudi national is suspected? I'm not.

    My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone in Boston affected by this tragedy. Just fucking senseless as hell.

    I wonder what kind of label hopey will put on this. It can't be "work place violence" this time or blamed on a youtube video..

    Re: Explosions at Boston Marathon finish.

    twitter to the rescue

    Boston police say: "Update JFK incident appears to be fire related."

    Boston police now appear to be backing away from their commissioner's earlier statement that a third incident – at the JFK Library 5 miles from the finish line - might have been related to the Boston Marathon blasts.

    Not surprising that the left would assume "right wing extremists". Fit's into the Hopey anti gun agenda.

    Re: Explosions at Boston Marathon finish.

    Apparently, the last mile of the marathon was dedicated to the Newtown family victims, smh. They say some of them were there...

    The Boston Marathon's Final Mile Was Dedicated to Newtown Victims

    Adding further heartbreak to utter tragedy, the last mile of Monday's Boston Marathon, which was*rocked by at least two explosions resulting in an unknown number of injuries and casualties Monday afternoon, was dedicated to the victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary shooting massacre.
