The New York Times reports there may have been as many as five devices:

The authorities also found a device at St. James and Trinity Streets that did not explode, the person said, and two other devices were found, including one in Newton, outside of Boston.

Can we make this a Live Thread...?

It has the most posts and now there are so many other threads also, which is fine, except its helpful to have one Live thread.

I think he’s upset about seeing the gore. It makes me angry, and want justice.

Whoever did this may they burn in hell, and all their accomplices.

Lower limbs and a dead child. A low blow both metaphorically and literally.

No kidding.

......”The biologicals (remains) help with event post-mortem.”....

Grateful people can do this, but hard to imagine the environment they have to work in.

Of course our soldiers experience this while people are shooting at them... daily....but they know they are in a war zone. These people had no clue this was coming.

Terrorist only want explosions big enough to incite fear into people...”terror”.....because fearfulness can easily dull ones thinking.

Any name to this guy yet? Driving along in north Florida I caught the michael medved show he quoted NYPost as source of 20 years old Saudi.
Of course that really pissed zero off.Can’t have his buddies the saudis responsible for both 911 and this. Why somene might say we should do the Canadian pipeline or actually give permits to driler where there is actually oil!! Something rash like that.
Its OK barry. Just keep bowing your fool ass off to the saudis everyone will still love you.

Too much security and on-site scrutiny at an event like that. It’s impossible to maintain that level of protection for an event that covers 26+ miles, though.

Makes you wonder if the ones found were intended for this...or “found” at random from someone else doing the deed. We live in evil times in our country.

“I saw an earlier pic of 4 medicas carrying a guy in a wheelchair with both feet blown-off; just bones and blood sticking-out from the bandages and tourniquets. They haven’t re-shown the pic.”

Scroll down to Pic #8, and take a deep breath:

CBS News senior correspondent John Miller said there is “an individual in custody,” a Saudi national who was near the scene of the blast.

Miller said a civilian claims the person was acting suspiciously and chased him down and tackled him after the explosions.

The man is said to be cooperating with investigators and denies any involvement.

It sounds as though they think it was part of today’s attack.

Helicopters circling downtown Chicago all afternoon as well. The whole country is on edge...

It may be just me but I noted zero was sorta pissed that the 20 year old Saudi had gotten the blame all ready before they had time to invent someone else or fabricate a axelrod fairy tale which we now is coming no matter what.
If the Saudis take another hit its bad for zeros homies,and it won't look good for open borders either letting all the wrong people into the country might not play too well after this.
If the regime trys to “Benghazi” this story we will know it has potential to do some political damage to them.
