Post by wyokie »

2 dead, 23 injured. And the cops found 2 more bombs that thankfully never detonated.

Running can be a dangerous sport. If terrorism is involved, the perpetrators need to be identified, caught, and prosecuted ASAP. Condolences to the families of the dead and injured.

heard about this.


now they're saying 12 possible dead, but unconfirmed.
When in doubt, burn it down.

So far I've seen it reported only 2 dead with almost 100 injured.

The death toll will most likely rise though sadly.

3 dead 136 injured

I am waiting for the conspiracy theorists to say something like aliens did it because they can't run in their world or the government did it so they can justify another war on terrorism or some silly nonsense like that

I'm confident that in the end, those responsible will be indentified and dealt with.

Sometimes it takes a while, but in the end, we've been pretty good about getting justice.

Recall if you will, it was the stamped serial number on an axle found blocks from the bomb location at Oklahoma City that led them to Timothy McVie.

The "who done it" stuff will take care of itself. Right now, my focus on those lost and injured - an 8-year old for starters.

very sad and makes me angry that some people have no regard for other people's lives.... esp. the innocent.

I do hope they catch those responsible. hopefully there are surveillance cameras or maybe someone got some random video of the perp leaving a backpack or something.

So far it seems like the bombs were pressure cookers with ball bearings in them, suggesting that the bomber is NOT some "kid in his garage."

I'm surprised none of the usual suspects have surfaced to claim responsibility... no Al Queda praising the actions.. nada...

Could be domestic. Happened on the anniversary of Abe Lincolns death, day before anniversary of the Virginia Tech massacre and 4 days before the anniversary of the Oklahoma Bombing. All tragic events in US history done by heartless Americans

Oh boy. Here's another thing that happens that will break the myth of being a "safe world." :cry:

Do we ban "pressure cookers" now? :-?
