Everyone in America knows what the Boston Marathon is although most don't celebrate it, most equate the marathon with Patriot's Day (even if they don't know what that means :).) Do amateurs us ball barrings in their explosives?

After seeing it in 50 movies ... yeah probably. I think it was an amateur, they say the strength of the explosion was low considering the size of the bombs. Apparently a pro could have made the bomb about 5 times stronger ... at least that was what I heard on Fox news a few minutes ago. (I don't know shit about bombs so i'm just telling you what they said)

odds are in my favor that this is a white militant mcveigh type.

look at the white supremacists that great one returns adores assassinating the texas da just a few weeks ago.

an islamic extremist would go for something much larger and grander.

Time to make up another lie Uninformed Moron. They arrested somebody for the Texas crime 3 days ago. He was....well shit y tell u ...lol Like u believe anything that isnt on Nick News at Night..

By the way, ck out the FBI website one day when u can remember how to spell FBI. The #1 Terrorist group in America is by a wide margin Left Wing Eco -Terrorists. I would explain to you what an Eco-terrorist is but i dont have any Dr.Seuss references to point out to you.

Just getting that device into that secure of an area is quite a feat in itself.

To get multiple ones in there. I was thinking about this earlier today, the only way I could think of was to put them in the bottom of one of those big strollers. Under blankets, diaper bag etc. Who's going to go through that at a check point?

Fyi - just watched some more of the local news. At one of the hospitals (Brigham & Womens), the doctor/surgeon who came out to give an interview indicated that the shrapnel he removed from various victims appeared to be street debris not "device" or bomb related. Not sure if this holds true for other victims or just the ones this guy was seeing.

Boston Ch4 just intrvwd the old chap that went down when the first blast went off. He explained that he knew he was close to finishing line when he felt the shockwave of the explosion rocking him, his legs got wobbly and he then knew he was going down onto the 'blacktop' as he put it. They wanted to put him on a wheelchair and send him to hosp. but he insisted that he was okay and that he was only a few blocks away from his hotel and he just wanted to get back to see his wife. What a guy. Hopefully it pops up tmrw on youtube or other national feeds.... I believe the old gent was named Iffrig or some such.

Yeah, guy is from Washington St. and his kid said his dad runs all the time and has finished many marathons. His kid was watching his dad's progress online when it happened.

I saw the interview. He's 78 years old and said he's run 49 marathons. Not sure if that total includes today's.

The 8 year old boy Martin Richard who was killed yesterday had just finished giving his Dad a hug after he (Dad) had just crossed the finish line. Martin stepped back onto the sidewalk to rejoin and his family when the bomb went off. His sister lost a leg, and his mom is also hospitalized.

Oh c'mon PPP.
You know that probably did this because of a homemade movie. Like Obama said in Benghazi... remember that, probably not because their haven't been anyone caught from that terrorist act either. Except of course the guy who made a homemade movie is in jail.

Very scary for me. My daughter runs a coffee shop on Newburry Street just around the corner from where the bombs exploded. The police shut her coffee shop down and every other business in the area and force evacuate everyone. Theres more. She gets home only to find 4 SUV FBI vehicles parked directly in front of her house, rainbow lights flashing away, armed FBI personel everywhere, and one lone black suitcase just sitting on the sidewalk right in front of her doorstep! They tell her the bomb squad is enroute and she must leave the area immediatetly until told to return. She starts walking away when a women starts running up the block yelling at the FBI people "Oh my God oh my God I am so sorry, thats my suitcace, we just came from the airport, I couldn't remember where I left it, I am so sorry". End of story.
I don't want to get another phone call like that again. Our heartfelt prayers go out all to the victims and their families.

Oh yeah this is definitely looking like a false flag. Another tell-tale sign is if a drill is happening that matches what is going on. It turns out Boston had a drill scheduled today for you guessed it a controlled explosion.
