Boston Marathon

2 confirmed dead.

Crazy, 2 bombs are usually tactical to inflict more casualties and I read that they are finding more "devices".

[NightmareX0666]

wow guess a total of 3 explosions....they showed the first explosions and seeing that runner go down...wow. They just mentioned the past bombings or incidents...Oklahoma City was 4/17, the Columbine was 4/20...

[up_for_it]

Totally nuts....

I heard on CNN the anniversary of Waco is coming up too.

I hope all the other casualties pull through.

Boston police still not calling it act of terror. doubt this was gas line explosion

[my my my!]

As is "usual" in these situations here in the United States, the media covers these things really well and try to keep us informed. Some see it as over coverage some times (not my opinion).

Here's what I've gathered so far from reading multiple sites and more or less I'm writing the stuff they DO agree on:
2 Bombs did go off One right at the finish line, and the second about 15 feet away

3rd Bomb has been found and detonated by police. 4th and 5th bomb status unknown. Making a total of 5 known bombs.

JFK airport incident , ruled out as "fire" and NOT related to the bombings

Confirmed Dead 2 (many sites are reporting 3 Dead)
Wounded: 55+ seems to be the common figure now

Other Interesting Data:
In Boston , April 15th is "Patriot Day" , and the official day for the Boston Marathon

In the United States , April 15th is generally considered "Tax Day"

Now the speculation is very widespread.
on separate forums, people are blaming arabs, Muslims, white militias, North Koreans, Al Qaeda , anti Tax nuts, NRA nuts, racists, and others.

Very early and speculative.

12 dead, at least more 50 injured after 2 explosions rock Boston Marathon, suspect identified and being guarded in hospital

Boston Police Commissioner denies person in custody not commenting on deaths either.

[Prospero]

Two dead and no arrests police confirm. JFK library NOT a bomb but a fire
