Don't know if it's been linked, but reddit has some threads with organized updates:

I'm personally sorry if I've offended anyone in this thread.
Been an avid 4channer for years.
In my mind, the best way to deal with mass tragedy and pain is to laugh at it, it sounds twisted as fuck but really it's the only way I can stay sane about it.
If I start to process how many fucking people had their lives ruined today I'd sink into a depression, worse than I already am.

[QUOTE=wickedplayer494;40293688]Cell phone service has been shut down in the Boston area according to the AP.[/QUOTE]
Probably collapsed under pressure first anyway. GSM (dunno about other types) has an entire system in place for emergencies that allow certain phones to work (ie ones of emergency responders) so the idea is that they switch it off so the emergency ones still work.

If you didn't want to see idiots like that, you shouldn't have done a twitter search for "gangnam style boston".

This just seen, can't see if it has been posted yet. From this video looks like it came from a window. Or could have just broken in the explosion.[/QUOTE]
First one is clearly in front of the building, some debris is flying straight upwards and falls down shortly later.
Cellphone service has been shut down to prevent any further detonations.
If you're trying to find a family member or friend, use SMS, TEXT or EMAIL. Do NOT use your cell.

Maybe it's time to grow up and realize that there are people in this world other than you and the rest of 4chan

If you want to get technical, it would be a closed casket if it was shredded.
I can't believe people are making jokes and laughing at a tradgedy like this.

Dude just fuck off.
anyone listening to the police scanner, something was just said about a package in a bin what was that about, not trying to cause panic, but also just heard something a suspicious black backpack
[QUOTE=wickedplayer494;40293656]I would love to see the person that did this get sentenced to death. You do not deserve to live if you are only going to take other people's lives.[/QUOTE]
Heh when i said this a couple days ago i got at least 100 dumbs. Now do you people see what i mean?

just a heads up: no one in this thread, or anywhere for that matter, is looking for a joke
at all
like
just none
not a single one
so you should give up before you add another meter to that hole you're digging yourself
EDIT: nevermind looks like you've gone ahead and added about 5 meters to it good going

Guys, the reason people keep posting these stupid jokes and images is because [b]YOU[/b] keep replying to them. Stop responding, report, and move on.
Stop bringing attention to the people making jokes.
100+ injured, reports CNN

The package was in or next to a trashcan, which in turn was next to a recycle bin. They were sending someone over to check it out I think. I only heard a little bit about the backpack.
military style duffle bag left at beth deaconess medical center ER enterence, requesting EOD team.
EOD team dispatched to Massachusetts State House to sweep.
I wouldn't jump to conclusion to make this a terrorist attack. It could easily be some insane person who planet the bombs for whatever reason.
