On page 3, in reaction to a post by Akillies where he said there were 60 casualties being reported, you told Akillies to quit spreading rumors and 60 people were not dead.

I'm telling you moron the word casualty refers to dead and injured so you were fucking wrong and should shut your fucking uneducated mouth once in awhile.

Akilles responded to my post with "i hope you're right". We weren't arguing. There was nothing wrong with it either way until you opened your dumbass mouth.

A tragedy like this happens and your first post on this thread is a pointless insult. Which means you deliberately searched through 8 pages looking for something I said...... There is something wrong with you.

If you believe a bomb squad would rig & detonate a bomb that quickly to diffuse another, I have a bridge to sell you. I actually know people who work in bomb squads across the country, their protocols alone would not have them get all of that done within the hour.

Go ahead & scream to the top of your lungs any & all names you want, you are not going to hurt my feelings sheep.

I know EOD guys as well and you are right but we don't know what happened here in Boston. Maybe they acted really quick and reckless. You never know.

I've covered the police beat at more than one place. Controlled explosions of suspicious packages is standard procedure and takes very little time from start to finish. When other explosions have already taken place, the procedure would go even faster, as they wouldn't spend time on the usual x-ray, chemical sniffing, etc.

Cell service is still up, it's just swamped.

Ok sorry , fox news said they shut down all cell service in boston in case that was a source of detination. Thats about the 5th wrong report today.

Please read

THIS IS A DIFFICULT CIRCUMSTANCE AND SITUATION!

Our job is not to moderate information. I understand how sensitive this matter is, I understand that some of these post may be politically incorrect or insensitive. However, it's not our place to edit information when there is plenty of speculation going around

HOWEVER, IT IS OUR JOB TO MODERATE THE TREATMENT OF OTHERS. You guys MUST stop the personal attacks on one another. ANY PERSON attacking another in this thread will instantly be put on Post Review and further action may be applied.

Let's be a little more respectful toward one another.

I don't care what color the truck is. If you drive it into the middle of the Boston Common, you're like to get stopped.

i've only been to boston once and walked through the Common many times, aren't all those paved areas just walking and cycling paths?

I suppose that's possible. I haven't heard it reported from other sources, though. I don't put a lot of stock in the veracity of Fox News.
