The picture of the guy's leg blown off is... odd. I keep on looking at it as a way of trying to understand it. If that makes any sense.

Yep, same here. Really, we're in shock just like the injured man is (obviously nowhere the same degree). I really hope there's an update on his condition later on, I hope he's okay. =(

And nice, further confirmation that the Post is a complete piece of shit and we should ban it now.
 
A spokesperson for the Boston Police Department said no suspects have been taken into custody yet after the bombing at the Boston Marathon.

"At this time, we haven't been notified of any arrests or anyone apprehended," the spokesperson said.

The New York Post reported that a "Saudi national who suffered shrapnel wounds in today's blast" has been identified as "a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing." The Boston PD spokesperson did not confirm that report.

"Honestly, I don't know where they're getting their information from, but it didn't come from us," said the spokesperson.

As much as you may want to take this with a pinch of salt with all the information flying around, but I have heard from a friend that his brother has stated that the bomb in the library was in fact just a fire. - no explosion.

The Post report was attributed to "a law enforcement source." According to the Post, the "suspect" is "currently being guarded in a Boston hospital."

It's amazing that NY Post can do this and get away with it again and again.
 
You're a real piece of shit, you know that?

Relax, I'm not saying all tea partiers are terrorists, but if the perpetrators did in fact do it in order to protest taxation the identifier is apt. Just like saying that the people who did 9/11 are "Islamic Extremists" or something similar doesn't imply all Muslims are terrorists. Timothy McVeigh:right-wing politics::Al Qaeda:ordinary Muslims

There are definitely large pools of blood visible in this video, it's the same one from before just rehosted on youtube.

Well some of us can't watch videos on that site - and there is blood in every shot being shown by every news channel - my point is there are no mangled limbs or stuff like that on the video
 
My cousin usually runs in the Boston marathon, not sure if he went this year but haven't seen him on FB. Such fucked up shit here... Here's hoping that anyone with family in Boston or at the marathon is safe.
 
God damnit Wolf.

"Are you going to keep running marathons?"

I just, DUDE COME ON.

Well, he also let everyone know that the Red Sox beat Tampa Bay at Fenway.

Paraphrase:

This is the center of the city, lots of major hotels, Fenway Park is nearby, where the Red SOx beat Tampa Bay (score) by the way.

To reiterate, no one has been arrested in connection to this bombing as of right now.
 
MSNBC just had a congressman mention that there were five bombs in play. We have the first two, the one at JFK Library..where, exactly, did the information of the other two surface?

Two unexploded ones; one under the grandstands and one that may have been detonated by authorities, but the latter one is speculative.

So at least four right now. Just heard from my relatives, too; they're all OK.
 
This is very sad, and my condolences to the participants of the race, BostonGAF, and their loved ones however involved.

I've seen some of the photos of the blood spatter, it was horrible.

It seems this is the end of the incident. I don't expect any credible explanation for suspects within a day or two.
