” New Kids on the Block singer Joey McIntyre has tweeted that he’s OK after the two bombs exploded just five minutes after he completed the 42.2km run.”

==

I’ll sleep better tonight now that I know Joey is safe-——I was sooooo worried.

Prayers for you and your city. The bombs could have just not gone off in time frame terrorists were shooting for. Some did not go off at all apparently.

.....”The whole country is on edge”.......

That is what terrorism does.....and the intent.

The news reports remind me of when we went to war.....I am going to say that woman pundits do not know how to handle this type of news on CNN. ...and the others aren’t much better.

I live in small city and nothing unusual here I know of.

Not surprised they’re circling “Code Black” hometown though...

Others here with marathon experience (1st or 2nd hand) have speculated that the timing of the explosions were a good guesstimate of when the bulk of finishers would be crossing the line.

That the 1st tier competitors would've been done quite awhile previous, and would've crossed the line singly or in small clumps.

The 4hr mark is apparently an 'average' time for an 'average' marathoner, and about when big groups of them would be expected to be present at the site.

S-a-a-a-ay, isn't this the second time you've posted?

Not that we're counting or anything like that...

Special agent speaking..with Gov.:

Criminal Investigation with potential terrorist investigation....not details at this time.

Urges people call tip line for any leads.

Federal resources are avaiable coming in.

US Attorney speaking:

“Horrific tragedy...all resources necessary offered.
Many questions, very fluid investigation.
Some mis-information.”

Commissioner speaking:

There is NO SUSPECT at Bringham Hospital as reported in the press.....repeats statement.... NO SUSPECT at the hospitail.

Mostly politicians getting face time...sickening. At least during 911 we actually got real information pretty quickly. This is BS!

Reporters questions:

Is there a person of interest at the Woman’s hospital?..

“No comment on specifics of the investigation at this time.”

I think they all get face time as a means of calming the people by being seen and active in this happening. Aside from politics, it does work to calm people.

Maybe Bill Ayers and Burnadette Dorn are back in business, encouraged by their scion, Barrack Hussein Obama.

Wow did the first reporter really ask about this being a false flag?

Who is this worm that Holder sent from the DOJ? My guess is he is there to spin things in Obama’s political favor and nothing more. Terrible to think that way, but you know that that is all the WH is concerning themselves with tonight. Benghazi proved that beyond a shadow of a doubt.

Missed that. If so it was a stupid thing to ask IMHO.

Something to consider...this Marathon draws people from all over the world...take a look at all the flags represented....”at the finish line”....where the bomb exploded.

******Death toll at three now******
