Another bomb at JFK library has exploded

[elliseamos]

my first thought (upon seeing the thread) was more overreaction to some cartoon advertisement.

my first thought (after reading about what actually happened) was this is really sad.

Thats incredible...at a marathon?? I been into one of those in chile last week and it was such a moment of joy, kids everywhere, people cheering people....

The world is insane and they keep killing the good moments we have left.

my first thought is a right wing wack job who hates to pay taxes among other things

Sounds plausible. I would be surprised if this was a foreign attack.

Peter Sagal on NPR (who has just crossed the finish line when it happened) said on air "I've heard at least 4 crazy rumors, and I won't tell you any of them."

There was a fire there earlier. No reports of an actual explosion there.

Yeah I'd be really surprised if this was foreign.

About god damned time someone showed some restraint.

I fucking hate the N.Y. Post. That shit doesn't count as journalism.

CBS says there is surveillance footage of a man carrying multiple backpacks into the explosion area 20 minutes prior to explosions.

FWIW: NY Post says a Saudi national has been ID'd as a suspect. (I'd take with a huge grain of salt given it came from the Post).

This is the first thing I thought as well, someone whose tax payments just buried them.


Also, there is a shit ton of blood on the streets in the live shots. Perhaps it would be better not to show that on TV least it encourage others.



Video shows it directly targeted spectators.

from the BPD press conference that was just on, it sounded like it was this morning and they are considering it related.

Hopefully it's totally unrelated but its the day of sun in North Korea. Some sort of festival.
