Some sort of explosion near the Boston Marathon Finish Line reported on twitter

[pcosmar]

My money is on Black Powder. The bright flash & massive amounts of white smoke are indicative of black powder.

Wish we had smell-a-vision, but it was my thought looking at the video.
BP has a distinct smell. quite different from other gun powders or explosives.

a home-made grenade?

If you analyze the video (which is from a good distance) there is a huge ball of fire in the middle along with tons of pillowing smoke. My money is on a huge amount ( like 8+ pounds ) of black powder. You could probably squeeze around 12 pounds in a large backpack. Black powder is not the same as smokeless powder, which is used in most ammunition reloading. There isn't as much as a demand for black powder as there is smokeless powder; so he probably was able to obtain it without much trouble.

In a Free country, this sort of thing CAN'T be prevented.
It's a great day for collectivists.

we use black powder in our muzzle loaders.

I was guessing about a pound..
I used to shoot black powder a lot,, once upon a time.

A toilet paper roller would make a bang like that.

Yeah, I told my co-workers that this incident is a win-win for Statists. If it was home-grown terrorism; then the pro-gun control advocates win. If it was true Al Qaeda terrorism; then the military industrial complex / neocons / shove more Patriot-Act control bills down your throat types win.

Regardless of if it was an organized terrorist attack or just some random nut job trying to kill a bunch of people or the government themselves, the US government will use the tragedy to their advantage and blame it on someone or some group they don't like. They'll never say they don't know who did it. They always blame someone to both aid them politically and stop fear and panic in the public.

Evidently, law enforcement had their heads up their ass. Or they were complicit.

They don't have enough resources, don'tchaknow? They need moar monies!

Here's video. I haven't read through the thread so only know that a foreign visa student who was theoretically here to disrupt the progress of America's students on behalf of some corporation via businessmen in political office who pimp the H1-B for them seems to be the culprit.

Well I'd like to know more about the undetonated, advanced explosives that were found in the building afterward along with data that shows there were multiple explosions. It was supposed to be just a van bomb.

That is confirmed and on the record. Two unexploded bombs inside the Mura Bldg. But the media quietly removed that from the discussion. How the Sheeple simply let that one go is mind boggling. From a main stream media angle, not unlike the vast reports of explosions at the WTC's being removed from the discussion. And the laughably transparent crime of not calling forth any such testimony by the "9-11 Commission."

Care to post your results?.....in detail?

Enjoy wasting your time researching things taht don't matter. The institution of government is evil and they perform terrible acts and mass murder out in the open. Whether or not they engaged in additional conspiracies is irrelevant.

Government is the most evil force in this history of the world, responsible for the deaths of hundreds of millions of people. However the evidence shows that these sorts of events are rarely a government conspiracy.

SMH...The horror unleashed on Europe by the Nazis was precipitated by two "conspiracy theories".

The false flag Riechtstag fire.

The false flag Polish border incursion.

 

[The Northbreather]

I know that you're being facetious, but they won't go after "bombs" here.

I'm not passing judgment on "inside job" or not, but the thing that they will go after has already been hinted at: being able to shut down cell networks and communications. My prediction will be that these devices will be found to have had cell-triggers, and the govt will push for being able to place local black-outs on all communication devices at any events/gatherings.

Since there has been little "official" hints at a culprit, I doubt that anyone will ever be fingered in these bombings. Without an official culprit, the conspiracy theorists will be able to run wild with speculation, and further alienate those who look for reason and meaning from the mainstream of the population.


For real, this had to be the Lizardpeople using zero-point energy weapons to vaporize the organic material near the laser beams with the purpose of regulating marathons because they don't want sporting competitions where some people are able to win at the expense of others. Duh.

Thanks for the clarity.

They learned something from the Egypt situation.

They'll get both.

Win win is right.

The only loser here is the AmeriKan Mundane and what precious few liberties he has left.

Wonder how long it will be before expanded NDAA powers are sought?

I thought I might have lost my bet, that 2013 would have its first domestic drone strike.

Think I'm gonna win that one...

I was reading the other day that ATF does not consider BP guns as firearms. That's why they have no paperwork and don't have to go through a FFL, even if from out of state. Hint, hint...

What's in the Mura Bldg?

Press conference is coming up in 5 minutes.

[Uriel999]

It's pretty easy to make.
A lot of people shoot BP and there are people with cannons that use it.
Just about all fireworks contain BP.
It's used for blasting stumps, sometimes.

Lets not ban it...

I was being sarcastic...

A grenade in that crowd would have produced many more fatalities.. and a lot less smoke.

Grenades have a 5 meter kill radius and a 15 meter radius of fml.

Dang. Where are all the views from? Welcome visitors!

 

[mport1]

You must not have done your research very well if you still think that events such as this usually aren't government conspiracies.

How does it feel to discover that the 1993 WTC bombing consisted of an FBI informant being instructed to use live explosives?

I feel exactly the same. The government is evil and must be abolished.

Where does that video show that? It appears to me that the FBI knew of some sort of plot but didn't act on it.

You are correct on these. But I'd say that is pretty rare.
