Explosions near finish line at Boston Marathon

[spook]

What if it's homegrown?

then that person will be just an isolated psycho. nothing that reflects on the larger society. we'll all be left to wonder "how could it happen here?" with kathie lee.

Really couldn't tell you why but that's the feeling i get.

I have the same nagging feeling.

[mud]

Anderson Cooper just said they are looking for a dark skinned person.

[spook]

that could be anybody compared to albino cooper

[milton]

Fuck, vibes Boston.

Worked at Copley square for 6 years, seeing the pictures is surreal. Spent so much time on those streets.

[bklyn]

Time to move this to poly/ass.

You can see the spot where the blast happened in this shot. Right by bomb squad guy, lower left hand corner next to the fence.

I'm happy to delete the thread at this point. I guess I just posted it to alert people to what was happening. It has kindof served its purpose at this point. If folks prefer that I delete it, I will.

[philth]

please cease with the political speculation.

Hey Fruitloop....non of that was political.

no, don't do that, it's part of the record now, seriously. who cares if there was bickering and asshattedness, there always is.

also, it should stay here, not be moved to poliass imo

[4matic]

delete thread or move to polyass

[milton]

ignore function. use it.

On a lighter note.

Fox new online the live stream there has been a guy on screen for a good 5 min that does not think he is live, They are really dripping the ball. He thinks he is on standby!

To his credit, very professional. No cussing, no nose picking, Does sound checks rehersing his intro. Looking at the Smart phone every 2 min.

And on it goes, A story in a story

Not its real? Solid dood, it appears he is Fox 25 Boston?

Better question is, why are you watching Fox News?

[My Pet Powder Goat]

What Ice said...maybe keep it in P/R for now, because believe it or not, there are still some people that haven't heard about this yet. maybe move it to P/A tomorrow once the real shitshow starts and the monkeys start flinging poo

[systemoverblow'd]

delete thread or move to polyass

Is it more proper to move a thread of a serious current issue to the depthz because of a few retards or would we be better served banishing those retards to only posting their shit in the depths?

Honestly, there are a select few that ONLY post shit that deserves in PA. Why do disservice to the integrity of the forum based on the few? Shit, this is still the PR for chrissakes. It's not like this was in SS.

[userA]

yeah, i stupidly thought that everybody who rode would be basically happy and peaceful in general but then i started riding and realized how stupid i was to think that.

pissing matches usually only happen in line, the riding part hardly gets em angry.


just got horrible news, makes slaying powder today seem trivial glued to tv

I have been switching between 3 live streams and to be honest they (Fox.com) have more detail, they move around, they cover briefings Beginning to end.

They are not continuously looping the same 2:32 vid or the explosion.

And now this guy! What a gem, so he was standing in the briefing room set up in the Copley Hotel.

[hikesalot]

Now they are saying 3 dead. Very sad.

I agree it should be kept here, keep the PA BS out of the thread. Use the ignore function. Create a new thread in PA if you need to.

CNN Front Page

3 dead, 17 Critical
141 wounded,

______________________________________
At least 17 of the injuries are critical. Doctors are pulling ball-bearings out of people, says a source briefed on the case

I'm no explosives expert like our guy XavierD, and I know the blast was directed out, but that must not have been a very big bomb to not even break the glass next door.

[DasBlunt]

Sending good vibes, shit sucks.

I see one explosion at the finish line, in the videos, is there another?

[MTT]

You mean the glass in sugar Heaven? See the protruding wall next to the door, that blocks the windows from the blast?

Look at the floor above, Yea not car Bomb big, but did you see the pic's of the Fire ball? not a little thing. Nice Blood on the Bricks with the American flag? Is that staged? Way to much symbolism there to be random

Lower left of Picture Fancy Street Lamps not broken 20' line of sight from blast point

Edit again its more like 50' And yea there were hundreds of people standing along the road there, I guess Bodies can absorb allot of shock.

Get it, the People took the blast.

[grubbers]

Patriot's Day, lots of people with American flags.

Didn't break the glass next door? I think you need glasses. If you watched the videos, third floor windows were blown out.
