Explosion at Boston Marathon finish line

[ajalves]

My brother is running it

Uhh, have you heard from him?

yeah, i texted him and he was still running.....his fiance is supposed to meet him at the finish line

ok, just heard that he hooked up with his fiance. she is fine.

they cancelled the end of the race

apparently he said the cops found a 3rd bomb.

glad he is a slower runner and didnt finish around the 5 hour mark

they are doing a planned detonation of another bomb momentarily says Boston Globe

There is going to be so many videos out on this since it was during a high profile event

That motherfucker in the pinkish shirt is FOCUSED. Barely jumps, keeps chugging on.

Looked like a small bomb if thats any consolation thankfully.Jeez

nick's already saying dumb shit on facebook, get ready for more dumb shit here

I made 1 joke about it and it wasnt even that bad (US is gonna ban running).. hell, other AMERICANS on the status are making jokes.

@TimWilliamsCBS: #BREAKINGNEWS: AP reporter says Newtown families were in the VIP section right by the explosion.

[nick]

this makes no sense. god idiots suck

[jsence2]

Mike, they're saying other bombs found at other "landmarks". Any validity or just media trying to get hits?

Glad your brother/AJ's family is OK. Sad to see this stuff. The alerts to my phone were what woke me.

[nick]

theres a rumor a bomb was found at the UMass library

[Cnasty]

2 dead so far

[BIGmike]

There is so much coming out right now it's hard to separate fact from fiction. Just chaos right now.

im trying to take in what I can without being incorrect. Apparently this marathon had 26 miles to commenerate the people lost at Sandy. The explosion happened around the 26th mile, which had all the Sandy supporters near by. The bombs were timed to explode when they would be making their way there (the sandy supporters) running. How the fuck do we connect Sandy and this? a guy went ape shit in a town and did something unheard of, and now, while hes in jail, a bomb goes off in Boston killing people who were in support of Sandy.

Makes no sense.

Why are people so stupid?

Damn, been teaching and stuff is filtering in now. Hope all are okay from the NDL and extended families. Thoughts from the west coast...

so sorry to hear this aj, hope somehow she got delayed and/or they weren't there when this went off

[Cnasty]

Probably some nut job that is against all this gun law talk and crap yet he makes it worse with planting bombs.

Thats my guess at a possible connection if it even goes there.

Apparently this marathon had 26 miles to commenerate the people lost at Sandy.

all marathons have 26 miles

NY Post: "Authorities have a identified a suspect, who is currently being guarded in a Boston hospital with shrapnel wounds."

BOSTON: RIGHT NOW - ANOTHER EXPLOSION AT THE JFK LIBRARY. EMERGENCY PERSONNEL RUSHING

no idea how true these are, so take it as speculation until someone else reports them

[nick]

the bomb went off an hour after the first racers finished. It was timed for something.
