I hate that my first assumption every time something like his happens is that I'm being lied to. It's almost always a conspiracy theory. Sucks tht we can't take anything we're told for face value these days by our own media outlets.

Homey looks calm as fuck for having his leg blown off. Damn. What the fuck.

That's what shock looks like.

Sadly, that is the close-up. Full shot tells a worse story:

WARNING: GRAPHIC

Too fucked up for words. The whole thing is beyond the pale. RIP to the victims of this cowardly attack.

You can save the gloating for another thread? Yes?

Anyone has more info on the Saudi suspect? How was he caught?

normal. After a bomb attack ANY package is suddenly suspect.

Gun control and bomb control are like apples and oranges. They way bomb violence is prevented is totally different from guns.

Here's the opposite of your statement:

If it's only people that kill people, and not weapons, then why don't we just let everyone have their own nuke?

Yep...this is the necessary measure if these bombs were cell phone detonated

Uh oh. Pulling out the nuke defense. I swear this always comes up. And it's hilarious when it does.

Such as?

But man, I heard about this like 20 minutes ago and I immediately thought domestic terrorists, even though it's been forever since that happened.

I'm surprised this hasn't happened sooner at a sporting event or parade. This bombing sure looked well planned. The police/FBI will probably find out who did this quickly.

Cops are running all over the city now. I'm hearing more sirens in Cambridge now. Probably cops running around to check out every suspicious package in the city.

Post: #73

Supposedly they've already arrested a 20 year old saudi national.

Post: #74

Some of the runners who finished at the time of the explosion continued to run to the Boston Hospital so they could donate blood to the casualties.

For all the talk about how this country is going down the gutters, there are still a few good people out there.

Is CCTV next for Boston?

NVM apparently they already have cameras everywhere.
