Wow... I just heard some nut bag talking about a 'fake terror plot' just last week... guy even mentioned Boston

I hope no one was killed/seriously hurt... the pics look bad.

 

[BleedBlueGold]

No deaths reported yet from what I've read. But reports of people with lost limbs and "blood everywhere" are out.

Edit: Boston police reporting 3 are dead.

My God the blood on the side walk.

 

[clashmore_mike]

Just saw a tweet saying a news Fed picked up a witness screaming "oh my God they're dead."

People are being carted away missing legs.

 

[BleedBlueGold]

My God the blood on the side walk.

There's a worse pic out there. I refrained from posting it. Very scary and sad.

Prayers for those injured, those who have lost their lives, the loved ones of the victims and for those responsible to be brought to justice!

People suck.

Another device might have went off in the JFK library. Huge fire there right after the marathon explosions.

Hearing there was a controlled detonation.

Sad sad day. Unfortunately this looks like a "multiple incident/coordinated" attack which is the hallmark of a bad group of people we know too well of unfortunately.

My brother went to Emerson College which is on Boylston Street..Police saying a third device went off on it. Just sad. Prayers out to those that have died and lost limbs.

Damn I worked the LA marathon at the finish line not too long ago. ****ed up!

NBC said they wouldn't report on number of causalities because of possible misinformation, so that is probably pretty reliable.

BREAKING -- NY POST, QUOTING FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT SOURCE, SAYS AT LEAST 12 DEAD IN BOSTON

Wow. Just saw that. Still sticking with Boston Police reports, but either way it's horrible and I wouldn't be surprised if there were more than 2 dead.

 

[irishpat183]

3 explosions (1 controlled) so far. Multiple devices found. No count on exactly how many total....

Mainstream media is always behind other sources....I've got some websites that are pretty spot on with this stuff.

And my buddy in Boston has a police scanner he's been listening too..
