Explosion at the Boston Marathon (NSFW Graphic Images): Waltham Murders Tied, 3rd Supect Dead - Page 6 - Politics and Economics

Scary ****. Heard two bombs go off a block from my office and then saw hundreds of people running. Can see the bomb squad and about a hundred cops out my window about two blocks away.

Horrible. Targeting innocents is always rage inducingly disgusting. I hope cooler heads prevail over there.

**** the NY Post and everything they've ever done. Everything Murdoch touches turns to vile **** covered AIDS.

And speculation right now as to who's responsible is beyond ****ed up. This is like Bush and his people trying to find a way to pin 9/11 on Saddam Hussein before the sun even went down on 9/11.

AP reports cell phones were shut down to prevent additional remote detonations

http://bigstory.ap.org/article/offic...ut-down-boston

not sure if there was any confirmation the bombs were remotely detonated or not or if this was just a shot-in-the-dark tactic

Saw some claims that they shut down cell towers to keep other bombs from being detonated.

Edit: Pony still in shock from blast. Keep him in your prayers.

On one hand I feel awful for the people and the other suspicious of everything I hear. This is how wars get started, ****ing awul day, even worse that perfectly innocent people get tied up in some evil person's brainwashed agenda. The world is a sick place. I will be surprised if it's not a brown guy/muslim or a loner kid on a pharmaceutical cocktail, that's the pattern these days.

In all this awfulness, it's instructive to recall how things turned out with regard to the alleged Atlanta Olympics bomber, who everyone rushed to convict within days of the bombing...
