Boston explosions (244)
funxsinia: My thoughts and prayers with your sister friend.
One thing to keep in mind too is that the Boston Marathon is an international event with participants from around the globe so I don't see this as just an American tragedy.

Your right about that.... Problem is, did Authorities just get relaxed and didn't think it could happen? We are living in dark times my friends, time to pay attention to your surroundings and not your phones. We had a "bomb" threat at work, and they said don't use your cell phones, I looked at them and said, BS, you want no cells, get a cell phone blocker. Anyone can call in the detonator, are you sure you want that? Well come to find out it was a sleeping bag in the brush by the windows. Still don't have cell blockers... sad.

Law enforcement sources tell ABC and CNN that the FBI considers the twin explosions to be the work of terrorists. No arrests have been made. Officials have not given any indication of what triggered the powerful explosions. "

Actually, they found five (5) bags (knapsacks) which have been taken into possession with the intent to blow them up because they believe at least two of them contain explosive devices.
I'm not making this up or assuming.....I am listening to Brian Williams on the NBC World News.
