Breaking: Boston Marathon Explosion

[Rhode Irish]

That is close enough to Boylston to be believable. I'm going to hold off on leaping to the assumption that this is the guy though. I see why someone would think that, but I need to know more.

 

[greyhammer90]

Agreed, but is that bunker hill? Can vehicles even be on those grounds?

I would guess after insuring that there was nothing wrong with the van they got it off the street themselves... or police escorted him to that spot while he was driving.

 

[irishpat183]

Where did this pic come from Pat? This is freaking insane... Prayers to all.

Like Carlo says...I got people.

All coming from my friend up there. He may have gotten it somewhere else, but he's passing me info as it comes. Just wanna keep you guys in the loop. I know there are IE members up there and if any shred of evidence or news can help keep them safe, I want to make sure I post it.

ESPNEWS just said one of the two confirmed dead was an 8 year old child. Just horrible.

That's an incredible picture Pat. You have to wonder who that guy is.

Seems weird he would be wearing that, knowing he would stick out like a sore thumb in Boston. Perhaps he came to terms with the fact his goose was cooked, assuming he is the perp.

 

[ND NYC]

thats NOT the bunker hill monument in that picture above

 

[irishpat183]

I'm just passing along what he's getting. Not saying the photo is real or not. Again, he got it from somewhere else. He made sure to point that out

 

[rikkitikki08]

Im going to wait to speculate but that picture could speak volumes on the situation as of right now

 

[ndcoltsfan2010]

Very sad day. My prayers go out to all the victims and families of those involved.

 

[loomis41973]

Stay safe Boston.


Please quit posting wild speculations and such

 

[BleedBlueGold]

I just hope the perpetrator goes nameless. I'm tired of the media building these sick people up and giving them the fame they desired to commit such an act in the first place.

KEEP THIS PERSON NAMELESS PLEASE!!

 

[ACamp1900]

Good luck with that....

 

[BurningRiver]

I doubt that picture is real, but I have absolutely no knowledge of the situation. Just my two cents.

 

[Ironman8]

CNN is reporting doctors are pulling ball bearings out of people, suggesting the bombs were intended to propel shrapnel at spectators.

 

[BobD]

I feel sorry for any innocent black man wearing a black hoody in Boston tonight.

 

[Catholics_Rule]

I haven't been on Irish Envy all that long but to everyone in Boston, please be safe. I will continue to pray the rosary for you. God Bless.

A friend of mine was at the Boston Marathon with his wife, mom, nephew and his brother. His brother competed in the marathon. His brother finished a minute before the explosion took of and they were in a restaurant when the explosion occurred. Scary Stuff. They are safe and a realtive of mine got a hold of my friend's brother.

Someone really planned to hurt as many people as possible. Pretty sick.

 

[Polish Leppy 22]

God bless.

Seriously...this doesn't at all appear to be some pissed off wacko with a political agenda.

 

[BobD]

Pure speculation on my part but I wouldn't be surprised if the bombing is somehow connected to this situation along with Islamic extremists.

God bless to the victims and to the people that had to witness such a terrible thing

Reps for level headed non-reactionary remarks HCTI and Beau.

 

[FLDomer]

Why doesn't all the petty bickering and speculations stop. Please let's pray for all the injured or killed and the love ones. My suggestion if someone makes a statement you don't like, leave it be, bite your tongue ( typing fingers) and offer it up for the victims and their families. May God grant peace to all those effected by this act of horror.

 

[irishpat183]

I just hope they find the ones responsible and make them pay. I'm tired of seeing this stuff in the news, these innocent people getting targeted.

100% behind you there Pat. It's one thing to attack a military installation...but to attack civilians is inexcusable...sadly anything goes in the world we live in now...

 

[FLDomer]

Mods please step in and clean it up and not add to the arguements.... Focus on the victims and facts take the bickering to PM.
