Holy fuck
okay so we're all thinking "terrorists" but why would they attack something nobody gives a shit about
edit: wowwww the photos from the scene are grisly as fuck. watch your googling.
edit edit: okay seriously they're reporting 6 people being hurt how is there that much blood
how much blood does a person have that just seems like way too much

Damn. That's just a commuter rail ride from my home.
i was thinking gaza strip but sure zombies too
Well i mean it doesn't look like that much blood, its just in a large surface area. I guess remember that the average person's got 10 pints, which is still a lot if six people spilled two of em.

Though considering it's the NYPost, they could be completely wrong about everything.
Yup, it's just the New York Post being the terrible tabloid it is.
What we actually know at this time from legitimate news services:
1) Two explosive devices went off within 20 seconds of each other at the finish line of the marathon.
2) An individual was seen on video placing backpacks inside the trash cans that exploded at the finish line.
3) No other devices have been found. Boston Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) teams may be using controlled explosions to eliminate suspected explosive devices, as they are investigating every backpack and suspicious device, but no other devices have actually been found.
4) 2 people are dead, 23 injured.
5) All cellular service to Boston downtown has been shut down as a precautionary measure.
6) There was no explosion at the JFK Library, only a fire. It is not believed to be related at this time.
What the NY Post claims:
1) 12 people are dead, 50 injured.
2) Explosion at the JFK Library.
3) A Saudi National is being held at the hospital as a suspect.
In conclusion: The New York Post is shit and Phantom Cat Clock should check his fucking sources. also, I apologize for accidentally taking the NY Post seriously for a minute without thinking.

Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick's response: "No." The man who'd asked the question was later discovered to be without press credentials.

I only have two modes: freak the fuck out and not give a shit. Nothing in between.
Also, The New York Post has exactly zero fucking reporters. Reporting on actual things the police chief said is what reporters are supposed to do. Not sensationalize rumors in a panic.

governement did this to take away guns and gunpowder.
They will arrest a white male in his twenties this friday.
Somebody at my work seriously said that she thought this was a false flag to take away guns. It was a customer so I didn't want to call her an idiot, but seriously?
There weren't even any guns used. You can make this kind of bomb with normal household materials they could never ban if they wanted. If anything it shows how idiotic gun bans are because you can do more damage with a pressure cooker than an assault gun.
Right to own pressure cookers and all that.
I think conspiracy theories are made up by the government to make us automatically scoff at right-wing complaints.
They arrested a guy
CNN said there was an arrest, multiple sources (including NBC) said there were none

Quote from: AnkhClock;1946091Oh fuck, police are saying that the first suspect died when he detonated a bomb strapped to his chest.
This isn't going to end well.
From what I'm getting from the news reports and the live police radio posted earlier, they think the second guy may have a bomb (possibly the same kind of "pressure cooker" bomb from the marathon) as well. Could be speculation based on the fact that he is reported to have a backpack, though. I dunno.
Edit: They are getting reports that a man, early 20s in a black jacket and a dark backpack is trying to flag down random cars for a ride. Sounds like him. I wonder if they're about to get him...
Edit 2: They have "three suspects" that they pulled from a cab that they think he flagged down. One is the driver, one is a young male with a backpack with some clothes in it, the other I couldn't understand his description. One of the cops asked the arresting cop to confirm that it was the suspect they were looking for over in Watertown, but I didn't hear a confirmation or clarification.
Edit 3: They found and detonated a pipe bomb somewhere. I still haven't heard confirmation about the identity of the guys in the cab. Almost bed time, though, so gotta stop listening.

http://www.ustream.tv/channel/ma-rt-9-window-cam
Yeah, that's where I was getting my info last night. I heard them say they detonated two different devices, but today CNN seems to be making it seem like they're just doing it. There's a delay, but I guess it's better that they go through the trouble of verifying the info before releasing it. They took a few different "persons of interest" into custody last night, so if CNN reported it as it happened every "person of interest" would be passed on as "the guy" on social media.
Edit: Uh oh, shots fired...
Edit 2: Sounded like they said they're going to fire "dummy rounds into the boat," but she has such a thick accent that the "boat" might have been something else.
Seems like that boat thing might be the real deal. The press is finally reporting on it, so it seems like it could be finta go down.
Edit: They just cautioned officers that there is "fire on the boat" and "twenty gallons of gasoline on the boat."
Edit 2: "Hold your fire, possible flashbang on boat."
Edit 3: It's been almost completely silent on the scanner since that last update. Police have confirmed (to the press) that it is likely the suspect, though. He's cornered on a boat in someone's yard.
"Party's in custody. Attention to all units, party is in custody."
Man, my local news just said that. Ten minute delay because they are ON THE BALL. Though, I was expecting them to say it tomorrow morning. Hope it's the guy
