Bombing in Boston

[Clickme]

For those that do not know, at 2:56PM EST 2 explosions went off at the Boston Marathon. So far 30+ injured, 2 confirmed dead. One controlled explosion as a discovered device was set off safely, and 2 more untriggered devices have been found so far. Find your preferred news station if you want to learn more as the situation develops.

**EDIT**
Right after posting new info came in confirming that there was another explosion at the JFK Library.

I just heard.

Why would anyone do this? What's the point?

Terrorists! Wonder if it's foreign or domestic?

There's no info on that yet. Everything is still in motion. They're not even sure if the incident is contained yet. They're still looking for more devices if there are any, and treating every backpack, nad case as a potential bomb until it's been cleared.

IDK, that news is also posting 12 dead, when only 2 have been confirmed so far according to several sources. I think there's some posting going on without full confirmation on hte side of that news source. I'm keeping a handle on a few different sources to combine the facts that are being confirmed by each other. So far the only sure facts are 2 explosions at the marathon, one at JFK Library, 2 other discovered, untriggered devices found and 2 confirmed dead so far as of 5:21PM EST. Counts of hte injured are still fluctuating anywhere from 19-64 without a solid number having been confirmed yet. The more common numbers are in the 20's adn 30's.

Watch this turn into Iran or Korea somehow.

Hmmm. Remember, Obama likes targeted responses. He's not Bush.

But we'll see.

I know I'm one to talk, but lets pray for the victims and their survivors for now and see how it plays out.

CNN has a decent listing of the facts as they come out, mostly coinciding with ABC news. I'm comparing other news sources, but of course BBC has very few details right now.

Barack? I'm not worried about him.
Senator McCain, OTOH, just had a birthday - and ya gotta admit, Pyongyang would be a helluva gift to the man held in their POW camps.

But still, this is a time to cherish the memories of the fallen, and rebuild shattered lives; not a time to hasten to judgment.

This is going to boost up security once again across the nation. Not that im against, just going to be a hassel in large citys like Housten, N.Y. or even Orlando. Hope they find these people quick and its a small number of them.
