Explosions at Boston Marathon

Until I see a press conference - I don't believe anything...

It seems to me that JOURNALISM, in the US has turned into ENTERTAINMENT type reporting, rather than trustworthy factual/accurate NEWS. I think the BBC is more reliable and factual than CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, FOX, NYTimes... etc.

Channel 13 PBS does a good news cast to, but I agree with you rest of it in the US is crap.

This is spine-tingling.

Thanks for sharing that.

The Bruins anthem was also beautiful.

New York Post conjures up this bullcrap... the younger guy saw his photo here and went running to the police to clear his name... seem as though - It is a high school track member and his coach.

If these two are indeed the bombers; unless they are complete idiots, I'm guessing these two have to had to have left the country by now.

Thanks for posting that I and my cousins will buy it and I put it on my Facebook's page just now.

If the media is correct unfortunately MIT officers shot last night, Boston subway shut down now, one suspect dead and one on the louse. Please don't use mass transit in Boston area today they are saying other suspect on the run, hope this ends quickly with no one else getting hurt.
Also the police think he probably has bombs and guns on him the suspect so please please be careful if your in Boston area today.

well, guess they're idiots. Glad one of them is no longer a threat and hope the second is apprehended real soon.

RIP to the officer who was murdered last night.

Or on a suicide mission. This reminds me of the Mumbai attack (although these two were lying in wait longer). They were determined to go out in a blaze taking as many innocent people with them as possible.

This has been going on within blocks of my house all night. No sleep after a good spring day at Killington yesterday.

deadheadskier · Apr 19, 2013

That sucks dmw!!! Hang in there and be safe.

Sounds like things are getting even more serious. Doesn't look good for the Bruins game tonight, not that I could care less until this person is caught.
