This means the TSA has a license to be EVERYWHERE from here on out. . You will no longer be able to escape them by boycotting airports. That will indeed further loss of freedom, and i have 2 friends that are were and are (unless they arrested them) handing out gospel tracts at the Marathon, calling souls to repentance and faith. And Bostonians are among the least open to the gospel, and among the most antagonistic towards it, and can easily use them as the recipient of their anger ( not Islam) over this tragedy.
Pray with me for the Lord's protection and deliverance.

Someone on NBC mentioned white supremacists a few minutes ago — as people that planned something similar at one time.
JFK Library incident also apparently a bomb according to the info from the presser.
