“The implications of that are a lot less disturbing.”

I don’t think so, an IED would not be that capable, implying a national power with military hardware.

Could be someone who stole a Claymore or two, which gets back to the amateur regime again.

Still less disturbing than the VIPs were protected by the bomber or bombers unknown.

RE :”So stay inside, cell phone service disrupted, schools on lockdown, trains not moving, roads closed....starting to appear like martial law. Just sayin’”

After work I went to the Fitness Center and it was on all the TV channels there almost like 9-11, my replaying (4pm) Cavuto later at home it looks like it was on for a while. At ~ 5:10 pm Obama came on to.....???... to tell us he is on the job. Said nothing as usual. The news will be on it for 12 hours straight with no news and report nothing,

Boston seems very far away from here.

My last trip to Boston was in the late 1990s I flew in on business on a Sunday only to find out you cant buy(sell) alcohol on a Sunday in MA.

I can only imagine! So glad your ending is sweet. Read a horrible story that some kid was waiting at finish line to propose to his runner girlfriend at end of race. She was killed and AP photos of him holding her lifeless body. Tears just typing it! Damn animals!

ESPN showed ABC interview of Doctor from Mass General Hospital who has operated on six victims today. He said “this looks like a war zone” and that’s exactly what it is. This is war.

Why Boston? Kerry? was this Kim Jong that little fat guy?

I remember after 9-11 the next fall 2002 we had the sniper roaming around here the DC area. (Maryland and VA) People were scared to pump gasoline.

The police profiled white males.

I don’t know whether they singled out Boston but these are not rational people we’re dealing with here.

Just saw Zero’s empty statement. My God the man is cold as ice! How many times are we gonna hear him say the same old empty crap concerning terrorists!! Wondering how the true Irish clans in Boston feel about his empty suit rhetoric right about now. Weasels Zippers has his statement about Benghazi and today’s statement and it is almost identical!

Say what you want about President Bush, but at least he was fighting these Islamist animals every single day after 911. Obama is arming them all over the Middle East! We have had numerous attacks on our own soil since Obama was elected, yet our own media struggles to pin the blame on our own citizens first every single time. I feel like we are living in some alternate universe these days. Up is down..down is up. Good is bad..bad is good. Evil....pure evil.

There is a bad moon rising.

If it is terrorism and they are found to have crossed the Mexican border ILLEGALLY, this son-of-a-bitch in charge should be tried for treason!...I figure he's cooked whatever happened - illegal aliens, certainly so - Al-Queda or other radical Islamist group ditto, after he's told us how he's charmed the world and made everybody like us and strengthened our intelligence and defense so much more than Bush did to the extent that terrorism was no longer a threat - and domestic bombers who kill American citizens? - well he's good buddies with Bill Ayers, who killed several policemen with bombs fifty years ago, and probably heartily approves another sixties radical who engaged in domestic bombing being given a teaching post at his alma mater Columbia - he and his leftwing thug cronies have a totally cavalier and heedless attitude about the safety and lives of Americans, and the chickens, as they say, are about to come home to roost........

If they were here on H-1Bs that would be icing on the cake.

Obviously, he was trying to blame this on gunowners. How pathetic. Gun owners are not bombers. Geesh!

But...but.. it worked in Oklahoma City....(The only gun involved was McVeigh's pistol, and it was surrendered during a traffic stop without a shot fired.)

Someone on Twitter trying to tie this to Waco 20 years ago...

IIRC, Waco was on the 19th, not the 15th of April. There is no connection unless the Feds attacked the Boston Marathon.
