Terrifying.

Wow... I just don't get how people can be so crazy.

Gee, a race dedicated to the Newtown families on Tax Day. Who could be responsible?

The explosion occurred near the VIP section where the Newtown families were seated. I will not jump to any conclusions and wait for the facts, but it wouldn't surprise me if there was a connection. Let's not forget that a certain event during revolutionary times occurred in Boston and has a group named after it.

They are saying devices were found. I hoped it was an accident of some kind.

Explosion at JFK presidential library in Boston!

Is it definite that a Saudi national is in custody as a suspect, or is the NY Post blowing smoke?

I am trying to get in touch with a friend who lives in Boston. I assume she is at work as she invited me for a visit next month when she has some vacation time. It's probably quiet chaos where she is.

I hope NK didnt do this

Is it definite that a Saudi national is in custody as a suspect, or is the NY Post blowing smoke?

Sunrise here in Australia is saying that too, but I think they might just be going off the NY Post's report.

There's more than enough reason to give the Post the side eye. I guess we'll have to see.

Oh, North Korea can't turn on a pilot light.

The post is tabloid but sometimes even tabloids occasionally report fact. I have yet to hear anywhere else whether anyone is in custody.

It would be bad if people just go by the NYPost. I have to wait from at least 2 other independent sources. I just hope people who 'look' Middle Eastern (whatever that means), etc won't be targeted because of this.

There is no local news, have a feeling regular network programing will be postponed.

Again, it's really not that serious, it's a message board and people post opinions, not all of them will be to everyone's liking, but the name calling and bashing is uncalled for.
