    So who are they attributing this too...


    This doesn't seem like typical angry white guy terrorism.

    Good news to report here. My darling Boston expatriate just made contact with her family, and they are all okay. So there's that. :)

    Also, LandoThe CapeCalrissian, would you kindly shut the **** up?

    ahahha don't be so naïve... If someone was to say kill your child in a drunk driving accident would it be better, worse or equal if you killed someone completely unrelated to the accident..

    Watch your language.

    The area surrounding the White House is totally closed off, and security in DC is going to be intense.

    It's been noted, also, that it's less than a week until the London Marathon. Security for that is going to be raised shortly, I'm hearing.

    New York Post is saying a suspect is in custody and being guarded at one of the hospitals. I don't know how reputable the Post is supposed to be; they're also saying there's 12 dead, which is a lot more than everybody else is saying.

    Not surprised.

    The NY Post is reporting that police are guarding a suspect who's a Saudi national. Great....

    Edit: Coruscant beat me too it.

    Pretty much every word in their article deviates wildly from what I'm hearing from every other source put together. Either they're way ahead of everyone else, or just way off course. I'm guessing the latter.

    Damn, I was only able to glance at this before, 2 explosions.
    And some of those pictures are sickening.

    Well security is probably already going to be ratcheted up anyway due to Thatcher's funeral Wednesday.

    Another bomb was apparently found and dismantled near the JFK library. Yikes.

    These anniversaries would make sense for some kind of anti-government extremist, with Lincoln, and with the Anarchists in Massachusetts in the 20's. Especially with it being Patriots Day in Massachusetts, and Tax Day.

    Keep in mind though that a suspect doesn't mean it's necessarily the guy responsible.

    Dammit I was waiting for the part where you explain in detail the torture porn you'd have planned for the guy.

    I'm about to lose my **** on some people on Twitter. Several extreme right wingers are already blaming Obama for the bombings and a few are going "Well why isn't he already in Boston?"

    Right, you want the President of the United States to just waltz into a place that is still a majorly unsecured location, especially when there are still reports that they are finding more devices!

    **** people sometimes, seriously. **** 'em.
