I understand your desire as well as frustration, but at the same time, you are assuming a lot...

something like this feels to me more over (completely just shooting in the dark) more of a single person/domestic enemy.

Fucking fuck... I've got nothing. Just why... Who does this target? People that like to stay in good shape?

How does the same brain that leads some to compose great music, gorgeous cars, art, etc lead others to blow up strangers? I don't think I'll ever be able to reconcile this.

 

[BrianG]

Holy shit, this just happened right now??

jesus christ

 

[Eagle]

Any suspects as to who did this?

 

[greasy]

It is not meant to target anybody but a mass of people in an area with relatively low security.

Welcome to terrorism. There's are no good answers to why.




EDIT: Not saying this is a terrorist activity considering there isn't any information yet, just saying in general. In regards to the incident, who knows what/why/who ect... but I can't think this is a terrorist event (IMO) because if it was it would have been much much bigger. It seems too small (watching the news) and reportedly has injured around 10 people thus far, with no fatalities. Most terrorist activities are much larger than this. I'm also not a criminology expert though

I'm totally freaked out...Friend of mine just text his pal is there running, body parts were flying everywhere

Absolutely horrible. Pictures going around of limbs on the pavement.

 

[Mr_Roboto]

That is some serious gore. Thoughts with the families.

 

[Jean Ralphio]

A lot of reports that they found another device at the JFK Library....

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

holy fuck. Some of these pics are brutal. People missing limbs and just blood everywhere.

 

[Mook]

Jesus christ...

Oh jeez, AP reporter on TV says Newtown families were in the VIP section right by the explosion. No injury reports, she's locked down w/ one

.

 

[Jean Ralphio]

Someone else on twitter who was in the area was claiming that "two men had bombs strapped to themselves"
Obviously its a total clusterfuck right now and its too early to know exactly what happened..but thats just one eyewitness claim

 

[Angus]

This is terrible...

 

[cacicgtp7]

This is about the time that there are 50 explanations and over exaggerations. It's too early to tell what happend. I'm sure we'll all hear more later tonight and in the coming days.


Fox news just said 30 injured 3 dead.
