Different footage (you can see the guy with the camera from the previous video).

The entertainment network where videos and personalities get really big, really fast. Download Vine to watch videos, remixes and trends before they blow up.

Also, this part stood out to me:

"Relatives of Sandy Hook Massacre victims were VIP guests at the finish line tent, where the bombing occurred. The theme of this year's marathon was "26 Miles for 26 Victims."

I'm hoping this is a coincidence. 24 dead as reported by New York Post and Boston Globe reports 64 wounded thus far. This is terrible.

new york post are not the most reliable of papers. most news sources maintain that 2 are dead at least 23 injured.

also the saudi national info is also sourced from the new york post. wouldn't trust it yet.

thoughts are of course with everyone at boston what a horrible situation to be caught in. london marathon next week too hope nothing happens.

Not sure if fake or not, one speculates it could be someone getting a better look at the race but there's a man on the roof in this pic.

I also notice it's coming from the same picture used for the cover of an io9 article.

How the Boston Marathon tragedy revealed the best side of social media

http://io9.com/why-the-boston-marathon-bomb-gives-us-hope-for-the-futu-473037383

Within seconds after a bomb detonated during the Boston Marathon this morning, pictures, video and news of the horrific event were pulsing over social

Edit: The man looks to be wearing a dark colored shirt, which coincides with the "black male in a black hoodie with a backpack was spotted trying to enter a gated area. He was turned away and was operating an iPad. This was 5 minutes before the bombing." That's just my own observation. Suspect being guarded in the hospital at the moment with shrapnel wounds is a Saudi national.

This is obviously speculation, but not a bad one.

This doesn't seem like a terrorist attack. Moreso domestic. Then again, you never know these days.

Anybody know of any controversial political decisions made in Boston recently? I feel like this has to do with something along those lines since it's highly publicized.

Re: Explosion near Boston Marathon

Thanks, and yea I'm just posting speculation. Nothing that isn't too farfetched, it's hard to verify much at the moment. Thanks for the tip retching oesophagus, I'll keep that in mind. I'm looking into the fire that was at JFK library at UMass Boston, apparently there was an incendiary device there as well. I had found a pic of it but that's as far as I've gone with that.

I can't get my mind off the fact the marathon was related to Sandy Hook victims. If any of you looked into Sandy Hook you might have known about all the contradictory information from early on that was covered up later. The Sandy Hook shooting was extremely fishy and I lean towards it having been staged (even though I'm not much of a conspiracy theorist). I clearly remember facts early on that were suddenly gone and never accounted for. That being said if there is relevance in Sandy Hook with this bombing then there is relevance with what I believe to be the real culprits behind the Sandy Hook event and the people behind this bombing. I am hoping that's not the case because this would mean that there's a political agenda behind this and people higher up knew about it.

Re: Explosion near Boston Marathon

Feel free to check this and then this. If you're feeling up for 2 hours of it check this. And I remember myself seeing video and talk of two men running away but only one is talked of since then. I felt there was something fishy going on very early due to all the conflicting details. I don't go around denying shootings and events often but there's something clearly wrong with the shooting, and having no pictures at all of victims (not that I want to see pictures of kids injured or dead, don't get me wrong) I can't help but think it was planned in order to curb people's minds into supporting gun control.

With all that I wonder, same as cedolad, if there's a political agenda behind this bombing.

I really don't want to derail so if you have any response purely about Sandy Hook dig up the thread and post in it.

I was watching a story about this on the news. They said it could be a terrorist attack because whoever was behind this was targeting the Boston Marathon but none that I know of know what their motive may have been.

Fuck these guys, so hard. I know they always do this but this is just hitting me extra hard as a runner.

Fuck whoever put those bombs there, and fuck WBC even more.

I need to settle down.

Re: Explosion near Boston Marathon

Some people are forming conspiracy theories that the govt was behind this because there were apparently bomb squad canines around the area, plus there was a Facebook group made for this 2 days ago. Sounds more like they were alerted to it because of the group and sent out a squad to check for explosives. Consipracy theorists are idiots.
