If there is any good news in this, Mass General is the #1 hospital in the nation and one of the best in the world. The victims are getting very good care.

[QUOTE=YouWithTheFace.;40292851]controlled?[/QUOTE] I don't think so, they seem a bit worried about it.
This is so harrowing. I've got the chills so bad
Stampedes happening at the Boston commons.
Hopefully thats the controlled explosion
[QUOTE=YouWithTheFace.;40292851]controlled?[/QUOTE] Don't know, all I heard on the radio was that someone requested units to JFK Library.

[QUOTE=Harnbrand;40292868]Stampedes happening at the Boston commons.[/QUOTE] I can only imagine what it's like over there.
April 15 is the day Abraham Lincoln died, so it could've been a domestic terrorist attack (The McVeigh fuckwad was found with a shirt with Lincoln's picture and 'sic semper tyrannis'). Alternatively, it's also the day of the first arab revolt in Palestine (1936) and the day the US began Operation El Dorado Canyon and bombed Libya in 1986.

[QUOTE=Harnbrand;40292868]Stampedes happening at the Boston commons.[/QUOTE] Hate to say it but if there was going to be a stampede anywhere in Boston right now, that's probably the best place for it. The commons are wide open; much less risk of anyone getting trampled.

[QUOTE=MILKE;40292877]Did any news site link to this thread? An awful alot of visitors to the thread[/QUOTE] Naw it just happens, a lot of people on Facepunch have an interest in things like this. To be fair Facepunch is one of the very few places I know of on the internet where you can seriously discuss the news.

One of the teachers at my school competes in the marathon.
FAA has closed the airspace over Boston.
Dunno if this debate is still going on but the BBC News presenter just called it a bomb and also [url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-22160398]in the title of this video[/url]

Radio: It appears to be incendiary of nature
You know what also pisses me off? That some people are now excited for this, because it adds tons to their gore pics collection, that will be posted and shared for entertainment among other people that love that kind of shit. Too much faith in humanity lost in one go...
They're saying the JFK Library explosion may have been 'incendiary in nature'.

As far as we know right now, it could just be a random terrorist event like the Aurora shooting. We'll just have to see what happens in the coming days. It's also my birthday, soooo :S
