ixcuincle Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Not feeling an overwhelmed believe in humanity right now. People can't just go with what's known. We've got to guess and theorize, etc. Ugh Exactly. As I said, on another forum, someone started to blame ethnicities. People here are usually more mature than that That's why ES is great. We may disagree, but we all have mature opinions from educated individuals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boss_Hogg Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Alright, going to go ahead and say it wasn't a gas explosion. This looks more and more like the work of terrorists. That what I thought initially, that this was some sort of industrial explosion. But after watching the tape and listening to witnesses, I'm not so sure.

Tulane Skins Fan Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 2 dead 22 wounded according to Boston PD reported to CNN Looks bad on some of the videos. I have a bad feeling those numbers are going to get a lot bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sir Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Horrible situation. Can't believe this was anything other than intentional. Hopefully what we've seen so far is the extent of it, and we can quickly figure out who/what was the cause. Sidenote: Brian Williams keeps saying it was right as the "Elite level marathoners" were finishing, but the clock on the photos and videos I keep seeing has a number like 4:06, It's always been my understanding that the elites finished nearer to 2:20, somewhere in that range. So perhaps the crowd was a little lighter than it was/would have been when the elite runners actually were finishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

talk show host Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 For a good portion of the world, this sort of thing is a daily occurrence. Its awful. Whatever political point people are trying to make, harming innocent civilians will only hurt their cause. I dont understand how terrorists havent learned that yet. And for clarity, when i say terrorist, i'm not specifically referring to al Queda or similar groups. Any person, or group of persons, who would do something like this are terrorists. Hopefully, when they are innevitably captured and tried, they will be convicted and sentenced as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sticksboi05 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Looks like all my friends made it out safely but I am still in shock. This is literally up the street from my apartment. I hope they catch these cowards. I really do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjinhan Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I've heard D.C.'s on lockdown, especially near the White House. Can anyone in the city confirm this? they might be taking doing that as caution... Fox News was reporting that in NYC.. any tourist spots around the cities were put on high alert and additional security is being sent out throughout the city. I would imagine that DC might be doing the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
