Explosion in Boston?

[Mr. EcKo]

I think its time to change the thread title


Boston Marathon Bombing or Attack

So where do we stand with that Saudi suspect in custody? Was that a rumour or was there an actual arrest made?

he was just a suspect I guess? no arrest yet.

Probably a knee jerk reaction rumor.

 

[Mr. EcKo]

not sure , the news keeps saying there is a male in custody being questioned.

another one i heard is that the bomber got hurt in his own attack , that's how he got caught

 

[crows]

so now 4chan is going around making jokes about the wounded, and about the attack.... some people man...

 

[xjamiex]

I'm assuming it's a rumour then... I've also read that there were remotely detonated IEDs.

I saw this on LiveLeaks and just could not believe it!! WTF???

Wow, really? Are these people seriously stealing while others are on the ground missing limbs? Too bad they weren't the ones who got blown up. ****ers.

 

[CelticPredator]

And that would solve nothing.

Not sure if this has been posted but I'll post it anyways... Google has set up a Person Finder in response to the attacks. If anyone is looking for someone, try searching them here.

and not to mentioned the people filming the event with their phones, they just stayed there and continued to film, no worries that it could continue but more worried about posting it on facebook

I dont get it

This. They were only worried about filming it and capturing it or getting pictures instead of possibly helping others. They had cameras right up in people's faces who were pinned down and looking for help while only a few few people were trying to get the **** off of them. No, don't put down the camera to try and help, instead get the shot. That makes me sick.

I'm also disgusted by the looting and the amateur paparazzi. Those sweaters that were stolen could have been used for tourniquets, and rather than filming and taking photos of the injured, those people could have been helping clear the injured out of the area and helping the emergency personnel get to those critically injured.

You know...this tragady isn't the biggest of all time...but it some how seemed to represent almost everything that's wrong with America in one fatal swoop.

I'm shocked. But at the same time...i'm not.\


And I watched the news. Barely any mention on the good doers of this country. Maybe a tiny video interview in juxposion with the explosion and gore pics.....yeah because that works.

That will come in time.

And not what's wrong with America, but with some.

No one has been arrested and they are questioning a few people. No one is suspect at this time.

Stay safe Weenie, my thoughts will be with all of my American pals.

I was thinking that as well.

And instead of us just discussing this we can donate... Just adding to your logic.

And if I could have been there helping those poor people then I would have, but there's no harm in discussing the tragedy. Looting and snapping photos of casualties is just pathetic.

I would have helped or I'd like to think if have kept my head enough to help. I asked my Dad about how he could keep his head in that kind of a situation with all the chaos. He just said because of doing that kind of work you become a bit hard to the emotions of it all and just do what must be done. I don't know how he does it to be honest or anyone in that line of work.

I know. Just giving it to you, like you give it to me. Ahhh The cycle of life. And yeah, that is ****ty. I agree.
