The race goes on for hours. I used to work five miles from the start, and it took almost 90 minutes for all runners to pass us.

The “official” runners make up a small percentage of the group. Unofficial runners number in the thousands.

The road into Boston is full for hours after the winners come in. Real party atmosphere.

Why the marathon?

They probably did trial runs on several events and determined that the Marathon was the easiest target.

I’m sure Janet Napolitano will do a thorough investigation from her list of all known terrorist groups:

Tea Party
Christians
Combat veterans
Gun owners
FReepers

Yeah, I see it, but whatever hit him would probably be moving too fast to see.

If it were part of the actual bomb, certainly.

If it were, say, a cell phone blown out of the hand of a nearby spectator, maybe not.

In any event, it sure looks like something smacked him.

Does anyone know whether or not a cellphone-triggered bomb can be ‘jammed’ with signal noise? Interested to know.. These could be cellphone-detonated devices.

Were any white men observed in the area or known to have been in Boston at the time ?

Agreed. I wish it were not so, though.

If it was a McVeigh type, they would have gone after a government building. Why the marathon? It's more a jihadi m.o.

Agreed, if it had been an IRS or other federal building, a McVeigh type would have been my first guess being April 15th. But a marathon reeks of Islamic terrorism and the fact the Marthon fell on tax day a coincidence.

Is anyone watching MSLSD? I’ll go over and keep us posted on the stupid stuff ( 90% ) if people here keep me posted with the real news.

If we get them intact, we can probably identify those who did it.
