+1 Unfortunately their are many possible home ground and international terrorism who always try this stuff.

Especially since we've been occupying and falling in love with corrupt leaders for a couple countries for over a decade......gee to think that we'd ever do that.... And people are surprised when something like this happens???? Really.....?

Your first bomb/explosion closeby?.. You like invading/occupying countries....better get used to it.

Your first bomb/explosion closeby?...LOL. Time for BoyScouts to grow up and vote for people who want to take responsibility for foreign policy.... This maybe just a bunch of good ol' red, white, and blue yahoos....someone intent on returning favors is going to bring down much more....

AGAIN STOP with the f'ing politics!!!!!!!!! Not the time or place for it!

I was riding up the K1 gondola at Killington when I heard about this, with some antisocial guy who just stared ahead when I let out a gasp. I probably looked like a crazy person. One of my friends was running, and so I had other friends who I knew were spectators. One of my friends was standing halfway between the two bombs, as it turns out. Everyone I knew there was not injured, but does it matter, why should I be relieved that people I knew were okay when others were not. I can't really justify making a distinction. The text I received contained a link to one of the more popular photos taken on Twitter. I can't look at photos, watch videos, or listen to recordings of the events since then.

When we got to the top I walked over the railing. I stood there for a good five minutes, staring out at the long spine of the Greens and then over to the east, where I saw the white caps of Moosilauke, Franconia Ridge and Washington, sitting there like old friends. I couldn't then and I can't now reconcile that scene with what I knew was going on. Terrible things like this happen all over the world, every day, and we as a species are responsible for some of them, and innocent victims in others. I can't make a distinction between them all in their awfulness, other than that this one was so close, in a familiar place.

After a while, when I had composed myself a bit, I thought, what should I do now? I didn't know. I clicked on my skis and went down, trying not to cry the whole way.

"Investigators believe they have identified a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings...The breakthrough came from analysis of video from a department store near the site of the second explosion. Video from a Boston television station also contributed to the progress...."

Nice work!

Multiple sources are saying it a non-caucausian though. We need to wait and see though.

Edit: one source says domestic though.

 

[o3jeff]

And CNN is saying a suspect has been arrested.

What blog did u get that pick from?

 

[LasersInTheTaiga]

Arrested.

Someone posted it on facebook with no link so I'm not sure how credible it is. Certainly would suck to be that guy.

 

[drjeff]

Pretty pathetic to see that some people on social media are upset that the suspect might not fit the description/demographic that they were hoping. Just sad statement as to how shallow far too many people have become

 

[LasersInTheTaiga]

I can't find any descriptions of the suspect. Is there one?

That pic, a guy in a white hat with a blackpack, and a hispanic guy have all been floated around the reddit blogs the last couple of days.

Wbz is reporting suspect was black jacket with gray hoodie and baseball cap backwards. He was seen on cellphone at second site at the time of first explosion.
