If it had been a “gas explosion” I would have expected to see huge balls of flames.

“Or, because it’s tax day, 15 April, the libs will sprint to the microphones to blame the TEA Party.”

Good call. I’d bet the journolist is busy fleshing out the basic report blaming the TEA Party. Various outlets of the Obama media will then modify it to fit their purpose.

Looks like terrorism to me..if it was some sort of underground explosion(Like a gas leak) would it explode twice? Seems very odd..prayers up to those injured..hearing there are limbs everywhere

No... not twice, and a low-velocity blast like gas wouldn't rip off limbs on the sidewalk nearby.

Beyond sickening. Cav only send prayers up for all involved.

( while wondering what depravity invited this... An accident perhaps? A sicko perp or a sicko who did not qualify? A ROP adherent— or a ‘friend’ of “little Kim”? - what/how/why?)

Perhaps “gas leak” is the official narrative? After all, they can’t really call this “workplace violence”.

"If it had been a “gas explosion” I would have expected to see huge balls of flames."

...and a whole lot of secondary physical/infrastructure damage. That overhead shot (showing the victims) is clearly not that. This targeted people.

How does it compare to the 1996 Atlanta Olympics bombing?

We know the party registration of the attackers ~ and their age ~ and whether or not anyone in their family ever belonged to a labor union, or was a lawyer, or the president of a public utility.

That's because it's always the same ~ DEMOCRAT DEMOCRAT and DEMOCRAT

Sure looks like two explosions in that pic,
one just happening and a smoke cloud from one
down the street.

This looks like Israel when one of the Hamas scum blow themselves up, or detonate a device..this was a well orchestrated attack..either its some kind of Islamic group or perhaps North Korea

The all-knowing political elite seem to be fully committed into opening us up to the world until we’re a de facto Middle Eastern nation. No sense of natural national self-preservation in that crowd.

Not EMTs. SWATs possibly, but more likely National Guard.

Like the ones guarding Port Authority and Grand Central Station in NYC.
