Breaking: Explosion at Boston Marathon [2 dead, many injured] - Polidicks

[QUOTE=Disotrtion;40296496]Ball bearings make it easier for the FBI to track down how the bomb was made. Hopefully they have some way of finding out where the bearings were machined, then they can go from there. All the ball bearings prove is that the bomb was homemade, and crafted by someone who did some research and knew what they were doing.[/QUOTE] All anyone has to do is watch the movie Swordfish to think to use ball bearings. Their presence in the bombs really doesn't mean much of anything other than the bomber went the extra mile to maim.

[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;40296492]Is there still a wounded suspect in captivity or has there been any updates on that?[/QUOTE] Last I heard there's no suspect in custody. It was a rumor.

Just talked to a friend who was in the race. His ears are pretty messed up being that he was so close to the blast. About 200ft he said. Thank god he is ok. I have another friend there who was hit by shrapnel and is currently in the hospital. I pray to god he is going to be ok.

holy fuck i can't read yahoo news anymore... i just can't stand the comments... god i'm gonna have an aneurism

[QUOTE=Pascall;40296523]Last I heard there's no suspect in custody. It was a rumor.[/QUOTE] CNN confirmed someone was taken in for "questioning" but gave no further updates either which way.

[QUOTE=Kopimi;40296476]would foreign terrorists not use ball bearings or something?[/QUOTE] Only reason I say it is that there haven't been any foreign groups claiming responsibility. (at least not yet) Just a hunch of mine but what do I know.

[QUOTE=Brandy92;40296455]NY post also reporting the library as a bombing? I heard it was just a fire of some description.[/QUOTE] And it wasn't even related.

[QUOTE=Chaoswolf725;40296530] Too soon?[/QUOTE] bye

[QUOTE=Chaoswolf725;40296530]Too soon? [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Stupid insensitive bullshit." - Pascall))[/highlight][/QUOTE] hang yourself

[QUOTE=Chaoswolf725;40296530]Too soon? [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Stupid insensitive bullshit." - Pascall))[/highlight][/QUOTE] I saw the picture and honestly the ban should be for longer than a day.

I know this is unrelated to this thread, but today in Iraq, 32 people were killed & over 200 wounded in bomb attacks. Our thoughts should go to those people as well. Just thought I'd mention it.

[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;40296531]CNN confirmed someone was taken in for "questioning" but gave no further updates either which way.[/QUOTE] At least the identity should be divulged today.

[QUOTE=Boxbot219;40296557]I saw the picture and honestly the ban should be for longer than a day.[/QUOTE] what was it, i'm just curious

[QUOTE=Boxbot219;40296557]I saw the picture and honestly the ban should be for longer than a day.[/QUOTE] your wish was granted

Yeah I misclicked. It's longer. [QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;40296569]what was it, i'm just curious[/QUOTE] Dumb edit of one of the photos with spongebob faces on it.

[QUOTE=POLOPOZOZO;40296562]At least the identity should be divulged today.[/QUOTE] No. This guy was taken in for questioning. He may not even be guilty of anything. They release a name and he'll be branded a terrorist for the rest of his life even if he's innocent.

[QUOTE=milktree;40296544]I know its a tragedy, but people can't expect the whole world to stop because of it[/QUOTE] Yeah im not going to go to IGN and check the stock exchange.

OK, next question; Who payed for it? And who gained from the event if anyone?

This is making the rounds on tumblr with no info supporting it. Has it been posted before?

[QUOTE=AJisAwesome15;40296569]what was it, i'm just curious[/QUOTE] It was that guy in the wheelchair with the missing legs but he put spongebob characters faces on everyone with the fish guy who says my leg. Basically unfunny shitposting.

[QUOTE=Zenreon117;40296589]OK, next question; Who payed for it? And who gained from the event if anyone?[/QUOTE] With a few hundred dollars, anyone can make a bomb. And there's thousands who feel they can gain from killing Americans. And that's not counting those who are sick enough to have done it "just because".
