my brother ran the marathon and just called to say he is safe. So sad for so many. People making healthy choices in the world.... you just never know what is going to happen next. for some reason this one is rocking me to the core,,,,, maybe because i am so sick, bronchitis, shaky from nebulizer and inhaler and a new arsenol of meds to go with my already huge tx pile.... maybe because it just doesn't make any sense.... i am so sad

Not yet Shadow...

They just mentioned that over 100 people were injured and two dead so far and those numbers are rising... The third device went off about 30 minutes before the press conference @ the JFK Library...

The authorities are still unclear if they're connected.

They just halted all flights into Boston from La Guardia Airport known as the "shuttle" and beefed up patrols @ the Amtrak train stations along the North East Corridor as an abundance precaution.

Sadly, here we go again! They're showing video on CNN...

I hope you feel better soon barbbey! Hang in there sweetie! ;>)

Now the Boston police states the so called - bombing @ the JFK Library is fire related and not a bomb after all...
6 people in critical condition.

Hank

The president is going to make a statement @ 6:10 PM EST
regarding the bombings @ the Boston Marathon.

Respectfully,
Henry

COWARDS INDEED!!! I just freak when these things happen.
This world is messed up man!!! I want to believe that mankind
can change this hate, & pain. I don't know. I can only hope!!!

Terrorist cell's are everywhere. I personally consider these attacks as acts of war against America. Time to shut down the boarders and secure the hatches it's only going to get worse. Sad day peace.

So many of these senseless killings happening these days. Terrorism, hatred, insanity, & pure evil. The tribulation is close at hand.

I hope you're taking it easy barbbey & do feel better soon. I am glad your brother is safe.

I am thinking it may be one crazed individual like McVeigh or the Aurora movie theater shooter.The bombs, to me, appear to be too small to be Al Quda and no group has taken claim. I think it's yet one more lone dangerous NUT JOB!

Can't wait for them to find out who is responsible. Hope it was just one crazy. Hate to think of what will happen if it is another terrorist attack!!

So sorry barb. I know what you were feeling waiting for a call! My brother's office at the pentagon was destroyed on 911 and we didn't know he had left that morning for a conf in LA! Very scary indeed! Thank god for your brother! Things are getting bad! Don't know if I buy the lone nut thing! Will wait to hear more!Heard at 425 that there was 12 confirmed dead and no injured count! I am with peaceful, the tribulation IS close at hand!
Prayers for them all!
Bill

Oh & Barbbey, I'm sorry that your feeling so bad. And happy that
your brother is safe. Your tough, I can tell. Hang in there!!!

Another under medicated nut job proving they dont need guns to terrorize America. Too small for cell work, unless more happen soon.
Today IS the anniversary of the Revolutionary war.

@barbbey- I'm glad your brother's ok and sorry for all the added stress to your already difficult circumstances.

There were a couple of references to the 'tribulation being close at hand'. Can someone please explain to me what that means? I googled VERY briefly and it seemed to indicate that those who don't share the beliefs of those that posted those comments will be punished and suffer. I hope I'm missing something because I cannot think of a less appropriate response.

Yes you are missing something. You need to google a little more thoroughly I guess or go talk to a priest or minister to get a better understanding of what the tribulation is about. There's nothing inappropriate about my thoughts on where our world is headed.

Just horrible!! It's sad that innocent people died and were hurt by such evil people who are still alive. An 8 y-o boy!?!! What a sad day! My prayers for those innocent people involved in this horrible crime.
