Dev Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Good to see a post about this here. Was in boston while this happened, loudest noise I've heard in a VERY long time. Link to comment
CipherWeston Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 That video... Part of me wishes he could've gone closer... Still fucked up. Link to comment
Dev Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Also, news is now confirming one of the 2 deaths is an 8-year old child. Link to comment
Dev Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 Just got some information from my dad who is a cop in the area. Bomb was at knee level. Explosion occured in a radius of about 15m. The 8 year old boy that died was killed from the first blast. I got some other details about his death, but that's not the type of shit you guys need now. There are some great pieces of evidence being found out, they know the materials of the bomb already, and was most likely done by more than one person. Link to comment
StevK44 Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 This is terrifying to me, I'm from the South Shore of MA and I would have been not a block away from the explosion today if I wasn't off visiting colleges. A bunch of my close friends and my sister were there and thankfully uninjured.It's just beyond shocking. Link to comment

Dev Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 [quote name='Orangeslash' timestamp='1366076187' post='287969'] Bombs were laced with ball bearings. NOT COOL MAN. [/quote] Bomb was made with wax and tape. It was around the size of a large soda can (Think arizona can). The bomb was then wrapped with ball bearings on the outside and strapped to something (I believe) Link to comment
SgtAsh Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 I think whoever did this is either literally insane or is just trying to scare the entire country. The sad thing (besides the fact that so many were hurt) is that in a couple days, we'll get nothing but arguments about banning weapons. Link to comment

I'm not blaming anyone, but maybe the bomber was of the same string of thought. Link to comment

The westboro baptist church is a bunch of assholes that are stuck in the reformation. The sad thing is, they're giving all Christians a terrible name. Actual Christians would never do that.

Squall Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 8 year old kid is among one of three people who were confirmed to be dead. 2 people are fighting for their lives at this very moment. Around 10 people who are in critical condition. 144 people who are injured. Even though I am not from North America this was very shocking and unexpected. If people can bomb peaceful events like this, I don't know what the world will come to be in the coming years. And also fuck that psychopath bitch. Just like Chestbrah said, it's for reasons like that I avoid using Facebook. Lucas 1 Link to comment

This image (if it wasn't photoshopped) gives me reason to believe that the rumors are true. Looking back at it, it seems sort of photoshopped. When has Facebook ever allowed lower case names?

Pryce Posted April 16, 2013 Share Posted April 16, 2013 [quote name='Nebula' timestamp='1366130945' post='289072'] Truest statement in this thread. The sole reason behind our intervention in the middle east is so we can install governments that will sell us oil at a cheap price. Nothing more. [/quote] For all that oil Afghanistan produces eh? Anyway not to derail the topic. This is absolutely brutal, and let's hope the perpetrators are brought to justice quickly. Here's hoping everyone in our community is safe, as well as their loved ones. I know we have quite a few Bostonians that frequent the forums. Link to comment
