[QUOTE=Winters;40293530]If that were the case you'd imagine more people would be up there. I mean it's just as viable the bomber could've wanted a better view so he knew when to detonate.[/QUOTE] A smart bomber would have just used the livesteams and been as far away as possible.

[QUOTE=ravenhurst;40293542]GEE MAYBE WE SHOULD HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH SAUDI ARABIA GUISE[/QUOTE] you know instead of selling them nerve gas and testicle electrodes

[QUOTE=booster;40293545]So we just went from "Explosion at JFK" to "Natural fire at JFK" to "Explosion at JFK". What the fuck.[/QUOTE] this is what happens during events like this someone says it is, someone says it isn't, news channels try to one up eachother to keep viewers just wait a day or two
[QUOTE=booster;40293545]So we just went from "Explosion at JFK" to "Natural fire at JFK" to "Explosion at JFK". What the fuck.[/QUOTE] It's only been an hour since the bombs went off. Reports are going to be sketchy at best for probably the next 6-12 hours.
[QUOTE=Sardonus;40293483]I think I need to take a few days off of the internet, seems like this is all anyone will be talking about. I get that it's depressing and sad, but why do we as humans revel in suffering so damn much? Yeah! It's a tragedy! People died and [I]that's awful [/I] But I guarantee the next few days are all gonna be stories about the events, people's thoughts, and countless tweets/ facebook posts about praying for boston, even though people have zero connection to Boston.[/QUOTE] I don't know about you, but I'd like to know the reason behind someone doing something like this.
Any media from the JFK Library explosion?
I hope this isn't a diversion for something bigger.
Why is everybody posting gifs of people dying
[QUOTE=Sweeney;40293418]Continuous reports of a yellow "Pesky"(?) truck on the police radio? Anyone know what that is? Seems as though it was turned away, supposedly delivering medical supplies. Mentioned it may be a rental truck?[/QUOTE] Is it the one going to a hospital? A truck tried to enter a hospital with medical supplies and they didn't know if it was legit or not. Suspect in custody. Saudi national.

[url]http://www.nypost.com/p/news/national/two_explosions_at_boston_marathon_iMR0LCkcwASg0RQfVsH1yI[/url][/QUOTE] you shouldn't look to this article for information, New York Post is a shitty tabloid and whatever current rumor they hear that they find the most sensationalist is going to be the "official story"
-snip- Wrong info.
[QUOTE=carcarcargo;40293537]I find it hard to believe it's the Saudi guy. You'd think a terrorist would make sure he wouldn't be within the blast radius.[/QUOTE] If a terrorist is doing this shit it's not hard to believe they'd be willing to die for whatever point they're trying to make.
[QUOTE=Zoo;40293565]Any media from the JFK Library explosion?[/QUOTE] Hopefully no one was seriously hurt.
[QUOTE=PajamaSam;40293576]Controlled detonation by the police. [url]https://twitter.com/BostonGlobe/status/323886879453892609[/url][/QUOTE] different library
[QUOTE=booster;40293545]So we just went from "Explosion at JFK" to "Natural fire at JFK" to "Explosion at JFK". What the fuck.[/QUOTE] They know for a fact now it was an explosion. The only thing that remains unclear is whether or not it was tied in some way to the other two explosions at the marathon itself.
[QUOTE=PajamaSam;40293576]Controlled detonation by the police. [URL]https://twitter.com/BostonGlobe/status/323886879453892609[/URL][/QUOTE] The Police Chief said it they thought it was related. Pretty sure he'd be aware if that was a controlled explosion or not. And they are talking about the library that was at the finish line of the marathon.

[QUOTE=PieClock;40293579]If a terrorist is doing this shit it's not hard to believe they'd be willing to die for whatever point they're trying to make.[/QUOTE] Yeah but this wasn't a suicide bomb attack, it was with planted bombs, I would have expected the terrorist to have been well out of the way by the time it went off.
[QUOTE=DarkMonkey;40293367][url=http://i.imgur.com/rAZZcVA.jpg]higher resolution of the leg dismemberment, pretty obviously nsfw[/url][/QUOTE] Not sure why, I normally hate gore, but this is morbidly fascinating. Still, poor bastard. Imagine trying to run a marathon and raise some money for charity only to have your leg blow off. I hope he receives the upmost treatment and artificial limb available.
[QUOTE=MadPro119;40293546]A smart bomber would have just used the livesteams and been as far away as possible.[/QUOTE] Well, there could be lag bad/lost connection.
Can you all stop spewing shit out of your ass? Especially all these ridiculous death toll amounts, Boston Police still reports only 2 deaths and 23 injuries.

From this video looks like it came from a window. Or could have just broken in the explosion.

46 injured now confirmed.
[QUOTE=VOSK;40293598]Boston Police still reports only 2 deaths and 23 injuries.[/QUOTE] CNN just reported 46 injured.
