“Gosh... who could have done it?”
According to Nappy Pants and Obummer, could have just as likely been your 89-yr old grandmother than anyone else.
Lying to ourselves because of PC is causing death and injury. . .all because we don’t want to offend those that want to kill us.
What. . .is Obummer going to classify this attack as “work-place violence” like he classified the Ft Hood shooting?
Is that a joke?
That didn't take long, did it..
Police presser scheduled for 4:30 ET.
FYI
Agreed.
Didn’t Boston celebrate Patriots Day on April 15th until the terrorist attacks happened on 9-11 when they moved it to Sept. 11th?
CBS’ Kylie Atwood witnessed first explosion, ran to her right, into the area where a second explosion occurred. She reports there has been a third explosion in an area where police found another explosive. She thinks they detonated it.

People overload the voice, data, and SMS channels with ‘OMG’ messages and first responders can’t complete a ‘call’.
Not sure if the whole bit of restricting the network is implemented though. Agreed to for sure. It makes sense.
Ay carumba!

Sorry, don’t follow him. Just crossed my mind, in the midst of everything going on. I apologize for riling people, and will for now just not comment.
It appeared to be a low yield explosion — not c-4 or other military grade explosive.
No, you’re not. You’re a nutcase like Alex Jones. He’s the one who got it from.
