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

CRAZY PEOPLE DO think this is a government conspiracy.

Brainwashed people immediately discount the only possible suspects who could benefit from this incident. You are such an obvious troll, didn't they train you not to give so many tip-offs so soon? You're supposed to ingratiate yourself for a while to try and blend in, first.
 
:mad:

I am so sad for the families of the deceased that they are being used as pawns like this.

We're about to lose a lot of freedoms.

And make a lot of war.

As with Newtown I'm sure they 'won't let a crises go to waste'. Just remind people that as horrific as this is for the people involved, it maximized publicity, and is no larger than a bus crash in casualties. What is worth giving up of the remainder of our liberties to make that harder? We already have useless expensive DHS on top of all the other stuff. At least get rid of them first, before rethinking a smarter way of spending money.
 
Sounds about right. Right wing, religious fundamentalist, anti-government, gun owners set off bombs at the Boston marathon is probably how it will be spun.

So often when they do that the guy turns out to be leftist, but then they stop talking politics and don't correct their original musings...

I fear you're right. I've got this feeling they have already cleaned up and taken away a lot of the evidence.
 
From EMS/Police radio:

- May have found incendiary device at UMass Boston's JFK Library

^ that's not near Boylston street, where all other explosions occurred.
 
Not going to be shocked if the government uses this as an excuse to justify drones in the skies.

Bad argument since there are tons of sky cams over Boston marathon. Security too. DHS too. If anything it shows how useless DHS is. Lets end it and spend a fraction of that money on something smarter.

Sailing, you can't wash away this by saying a bus crash kills more people. This was intentionally done by someone. Whereas a bus accident is an accident. Although as I'm typing this I do remember bus crashes making national news.

Didn't stop them when it came to the gun laws we already had on the books after Newtown, though.
 
Patriot's Day is on the 19th, but as I scanned the headlines, it looks like Charlie Wilson has died at the age of 76.
Also at the age of 70 a congressman from Ohio who also is named Charles Wilson has died at the age of 70. The
recent Tom Hanks movie highlighted the life of the colorful congressman from Texas who once went to Afganistan.
The race could have been run on the 20th instead of Income Tax day, perhaps. Until this tragedy, today had been
quiet, and the weather was not too hot. Almost ideal conditions for the marathon. People have been badly injured.
