Popeman38 Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 NY Post seems to be sole-source of the Saudi national news. Every report that mentions it seems to cite NY Post. If they are correct, good for them. But they are also reporting 12 dead and 50 wounded while the "official" count is 2 and 23. Watching the ground level video, I find it hard to believe only 23 were injured and 2 were killed, but I am no authority. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjTj Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Arrest all Arabs and North Koreans in the area!!! I mentioned that earlier and was called a racist.You don't get to hang a victory banner until a North Korean is also arrested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Caretaker Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I mentioned that earlier and was called a racist. Regardless of what he turned out to be, it was a racist and immature comment to assume he was any specific race before any details came out.

RVAbrendan Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 It really is disheartening to hear this spun into not only a political platform, but used as a platform for pure hateful ignorance. Fox news contributor: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

visionary Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 http://livewire.talkingpointsmemo.com/entry/boston-police-no-arrests-have-been-made-in Boston Police: No Arrests Have Been Made In Marathon BombingA spokesperson for the Boston Police Department said no suspects have been taken into custody yet after the bombing at the Boston Marathon. "At this time, we haven't been notified of any arrests or anyone apprehended," the spokesperson said. The New York Post reported that a "Saudi national who suffered shrapnel wounds in today's blast" has been identified as "a suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing." The Boston PD spokesperson did not confirm that report. "Honestly, I don't know where they're getting their information from, but it didn't come from us," said the spokesperson.

thebluefood Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 From what I understand, the claims that the suspect is Saudi is coming from the NY Post. I'd take that with a grain of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Predicto Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Are you saying ethnicity should not be discussed in a suspected terrorist attack? No, we are saying that throwing out guesses about which ethnicity "probably" did this without any facts is kind of gross. ---------- Post added April-15th-2013 at 02:23 PM ---------- So what's going on at the library? Any injuries there? I thought that was a controlled demolition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The JFK Library was another blast that they are linking with the marathon bombings. Happened around 4:30. There were, in fact, 2 other controlled demolitions.

Duckus Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I thought that was a controlled demolition. Police Chief in the press conference said it was not a controlled demolition.

abdcskins Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I thought that was a controlled demolition. Oh okay maybe it was. Just got out of a meeting and glimpsed the CNN headline. * Or maybe not.
