Video of explosion. Breaking coverage at this point is likely to be on tv, twitter will have bystander accounts

CRAZY PEOPLE DO think this is a government conspiracy.
Is today "Patriot's Day" in Boston?
ETA: Yes, yes it is.
FFS, CNN is offering up the notion that it is Patriot's Day... "You never know..."
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.
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.

Not going to be shocked if the government uses this as an excuse to justify drones in the skies.
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.
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.
