OMG!!! Me and the g/f walked there Sat. night!!!

Boylston Street, we always go there. The building on the left is the old Anthropologie store - been there 1,000’s of times.

We took pics of ourselves crossing the finish line on Saturday.

“Nasty and like 9/11 it is right to post it in context.”

So for the next eight hours, we’ll see muslims celebrating on CNN every 15 minutes?

Given the fascists in DC, ya better get used to sights like that in coming months....

Given the ankle-grabbing, apologist fascists running fedgov in DC... acts of terrorism will not be met with any force. Obama and team will downplay and not respond. We are pretty much on our own.

Why would they detonate EVIDENCE? Don’t they have those bomb containers that are mobile for such situations?

Someone on WRKO said something about Fairfield St, which might be that—that is, nr junction of Boylston & Fairfield. Boston North/South streets are often alphabetical in initials leading west: Dartmouth, Exeter, so Fairfield would be a block west of Exeter, corner of Boylston

Shemp on FOX tried to get away with saying the bombs were laced with shotgun shells. He took that back a few minutes later.

Someone said the marathon was being run in honor of the victims of the Newtown massacre and some families were apparently watching from near the finish line, does anyone know about this?

Only if they know they did it. IIRC they did not celebrate the British bomb that turned out to be IRA

According of Boston Fire no use if cell phones by responders in Boylston St area. Souls like cell sites may be overloaded to me.

Well I certainly hope there will be an immediate call for “REGISTRATION OF EXPLOSIVE EQUIPMENT”.

excellent point. I would think a big event would have bomb sniffing dogs?

Maybe they did. Regardless, there's just no way to protect the 24-mile route. There are crowds virtually the entire way.

IIR, that could tie the explosions to the Palestinians.
