FBI is about to have a press conference and will reportedly release some photos. I'm watching the live stream on Boston.com

I'm just happy one of them isn't CHUD. He's from the New England area, right?
If so, I'm only joking, chud.

They have actual photos of the second guy planting bomb #2 right next to that little boy that was killed, and walking away. They have another photo of him exiting the area with a big smile on his face while everyone else looks terrified. They've only been showing excerpts of these photos because they're too upsetting.
Right now there is total chaos. Explosions, gunshots...looks like they might have caught them. If not, it's the craziest week ever in Botson.

He does have a well documented affinity for baseball caps, and is white. His discription is compatible for the one suspect in this recent ugliness still on the loose. Any information on whether or not chud has any unregistered pressure cookers?

On one hand, this is very upsetting to me because I know people in Boston. It feels real that way, on a personal level. They say the suspect is hiding out in Waltham, where one of my best friends lives. That terrifies me. Also, innocent people, dead children, all horrible things.
On the other, I can't help thinking-- fuck, this is what people in Pakistan live with every day. More people died from US drone attacks there and in Yemen this week than at the Boston marathon. The US says it's killing dangerous militants but the casualties have been mostly civilians, including women and children. And there's no #PrayforPakistan trending or whatever. It's just really messed up.
