DocM Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Unconfirmed 3rd explosion, could be the bomb squad disarming another device. Reports of more. Cops sweeping. Minimum 2 dead, 22+ injured including many with missing limbs. 19 to Massachusetts General, 6 critical. Here we go again... http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/15/us/boston-marathon-explosions/index.html?c=mobile-homepage-t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlintyV Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 If North Korea is behind it, Pyongyang will be on fire by the end of the week. Not likely though. Because that's even remotely likely, right? :/ theyarecomingforyou 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dot Matrix Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 It's not NK. If NK were to do anything to us, it would be on a grander scale. Kin Jong Un wants to look big and heroic, not wimpy. matt4444 and theyarecomingforyou 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FloatingFatMan Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 To anyone now who thinks this was just a gas pipe I now believe you are wrong and it was indeed a bombing. I've seen a gas explosion. There's a LOT more "flash" than the video shows in this one. Real bombs don't have much flash in them; that's hollywood fakery using gasoline etc. I'd lay good odds this was a terrorist attack; but as to whether it was an organised group or a lone bomber, who knows? matt4444 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Eternal Tempest MVC Posted April 15, 2013 MVC Share Posted April 15, 2013 BBC - BREAKING NEWS Citing a US intelligence official, the Associated Press reports two more explosive devices have been found at the Boston Marathon and are being dismantled. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-22160978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloatingFatMan Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 That's really not the answer. Yes it's a horrific crime but seeking retribution is against the best interests of society - it is far better to find, arrest, prosecute and convict such people, rather that stooping to their level. Seeking retribution is what caused the Iraq war. We've had enough of that sort of thing. ahhell, presence06, The Evil Overlord and 2 others 5 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorganX Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Today is the 100th anniversary of the birth of Kim Il Sung, NK's first Dear Leader. Just sayin'. My money's on Al Qaeda or domestic sympathizers. Or domestic nut cases. NK is nuts, but they generally threaten annihilation for world attention and negotiation power. Could be anyone though. After we take care of the injured and bury the dead, we'll get 'em. matt4444 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Evil Overlord Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 The device description closely match claymores, except these weren't mines, which groups use those?

FloatingFatMan Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 got the guy? http://www.nypost.co...cwASg0RQfVsH1yI Don't trust ANY news reports yet. We all know what the US news media is like. They'll post ANY rumour they hear as "fact", and worry about complaints later on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
