Some of the footage is quite graphic, one woman had what looked to be a big piece of wood through the back of her head

Jesus!
The footage is shocking.
If Sports events are now targets, then I can expect London on Sunday to be more tighter

They've just said on tv that the last mile of the marathon was a dedication to the victims of that school shooting. May not be related but you know how they try and piece things together 2+2=5 etc. It smacks of al qaeda with multiple, timed explosions. They'll think they're heroes when they're just fucking cowards.

I only did my first one last week and after a lifetime of pubs, clubs, gigs and football is struck what a positive and wholesome expression of humanity they attract. Not that it makes any difference I guess. What a sickener though.

If you get attacked and then next day go around telling everyone just how wonderful this cult is then they know theyve got the first victory.

Just want to point out for those that don't know, today is tax day here in the U.S. So personally, I wouldn't rule out a domestic source. Especially given the significance of the Boston Tea Party to tax protestors.

JFK library has said there was no explosion there. They had a mechanical fire and there is no indication it was related to the bombings.

reports of some one in custody. AFAIK, those reports all trace back to the New York Post which isn't exactly the most reliable. No other news sources are reporting that other than in reference to what the NYP is reporting. NYP says 20 year old Saudi National arrested about two hours after explosions.
