EXPLOSION @ Boston Marathon

My prayers go out to the victims and their families.

read cell services might be down, to stop possible mobile detonations of other explosives...crazy

Something about them shutting cell services down is really chilling to me, but hopefully it's just preventative and cautious more than anything.

Boston police are guarding a “possible suspect” who had been wounded in the blasts, federal officials tell NBC News.

Not just NY Post reporting that.

I was at the 25 mile marker cheering people on. I didn't even hear anything from where I was, but I heard about it from other people.

The cell service was all jammed and it was difficult to contact anybody from that area.

Crazy that something like this would happen!

Some idiot chick I used to work with posted on FB

"Someone must have really hated those Boston accents!"

People are such morons

Ok, hero. Yeah, people with zero medical experience and zero training should just jump right into a bomb site. That's going to do a lot of good.

?? It would.. Its common sense to "stop the bleeding". You dont need training to take your shirt off and apply pressure.. Dudes right.

Common sense is all good behind a computer screen. Place yourself within 100 yards of that blast.

i saw limbs just spread out in the middle of the road.

Obama is up on CNN as we speak.

a spokesperson for boston PD just said that wasn't true about 10 minutes ago on cnn.

 

[freshkrn]

obama spoke for 5 minutes

 

[NCtwin]

That was quick.

"We don't know who did it. We're looking for them. You'll know when we find them." *leaves podium*

 

[Peep Game]

Just heard about this, there's truly some low life scum out there in this world . Condolences to the victims.

I guess I'll take their word at face value. But why would they release that info? People would be bum rushing the hospitals to get at the guy.
