Only point I am making is that you should not speculate idly about things as serious as this. 

Forward on facts or substantiated reports.  Not idle speculation or in LD's case just empty rhetoric.

The gun nuts are gun nuts. They just really really like their guns. Why on earth would they detonate a bomb at the finish line of a marathon?

@Independent_ie: If you know someone who was running the marathon, you can track them here: http://t.co/5Z6i4WmMFQ. Many participants had already finished.

2 explosions on 20 secs and outside different buildings , and now ball bearings found on street ? sounds like homemade bombs ?
Thank You Torun and Tyskie

Kerzy, do you understand how this works. Read what I said.  I have not said it is one thing or the other. 

Others on here, with very little facts have said its an attack.  They do not have any confirmed evidence to say this. It may or may not be an attack.  I have not said it is one thing or another as I do not know. 




I get your point and half the stuff posted here,elsewhere and on FOX news etc in the aftermath of an incident like this look stupid in the hours and days afterwards,

However TWO explosions happen at the finish line of the Boston marathon on Patriots day.
This is a terrorist attack of some sort.I don't need the obvious confirmed.



Deise put up a brilliant article not long ago about this sort of thing.  About how most of the early reports on any major incident are often proved at a later date to be factually incorrect. 

Idle mass speculation about such serious issues is unhealthy and dangerous but if others think I am trying to make it about me well all I can say is Confused

Remember Twitter - if you ain't got facts, you ain't got nothing. So keep it to yourself for now. #BostonMarathon

Confused


You're clearly a clever lad, why you feel the need to jump in on these threads (rip threads and such like) with your hypotheticals and warnings is beyond me. Why would Kerrzy need worry if he's not 100% factually correct in what he's saying? It's a football forum, I don't take anything I read on here for granted but that doesn't mean we need someone policing posts.
It's an opinion, some are right, some are wrong but that's the point, that's what's interesting. If its only 100% fact that'd allowed to be posted on here well then that's the end of YBIG IMO
