Explosions at Boston marathon

#1 Post by MihoshiK »

Two explosive devices went off next to the route of the Boston marathon today.

So far two other devices have been found, there's at least two dead and twenty (severely) injured, (DELETED). This was an attack, not an accident.

My condolences to all those involved in this tragedy, and I sincerely hope no one on this board has been in any way been hit by this.

Edit: Apaprently the ID'ed suspect was the New York Post talking out of it's ass. Fucking rag. Nobody is in custody at this time.

My heart goes out to all who had been a casualty of this cowardly act of terrorism.

One of my friends said it best:
May the Almighty, in whatever (if any) form one believes them to take, comfort the afflicted, console the bereaving, strengthen the healers, enlighten the investigators, grant wisdom to the politicians and endurance and perseverance to those who hunt and be with all who watch, work or weep this night.

For those going after whomever did this, good luck and good hunting.

This entire incident has really angered me more than the Newtown shooting, mainly because of the ridiculous and irresponsible reporting covering the events. The media here really is awful.
