So stupid too...a nutter mad at taxes would blow up an IRS building..not a marathon. I agree with another poster...the bombing under all those international flags very telling. This is terrorism of the ROP kind is my guess.

Would not be surprised if this a false flag event...

A Beslan-style attack on a shopping mall using AR-15's would make a much more topical false flag event - especially if the shooters turned out to be "white Christians".

Well, one might reasonably expect the finish line to be under just a bit more scrutiny than the rest of the course.

Word I heard there is a concern they will detonate additional explosions?

Yep. They need it to be obvious for the low-info crowd.

.... Sounds like a gas line explosion.

Gas stinks , they would know it right away by the rotten egg smell. Not to mention there would be a fire if it were gas .

Because they may not feel comfortable defusing the bomb or moving it.

I’m putting money on a childish, despicable act of terrorism from the Norks to commemorate Kim Il Sung’s birthday. Too coincidental.

I think the bombs were likely cell detonated, and they are shutting down repeaters to avoid other bombs.

What was that hedge or whatever about some cataclysmic thing happening that someone bet huge bucks on before a certain date? Probably not relevant but just brainstorming.

If someone had a backpack bomb, it would not be hard to put it down somewhere and walk away.
