Erik did too, I guess. But, that still doesn't constitute "..you guys..".

Just how the hell would you know who is one of "your guys" and who's not?

Once the police have a suspect and determine the motive, I guess we'll know that. Until then, we don't know shit. Let's not turn this into a repeat of Jared Laughner, where everybody got it wrong.

Maybe. But then that would put forums like this one out of business.

False hope. Despite rumor, no arrests made as of yet.

Its your statement, Dave. If you've got nothing to back it up or clarify it except name-calling, that's your issue, not mine.

Oops. Too late.

"Contrary to widespread reporting, no arrest has been made in connection with the Boston Marathon attack," the FBI said in a released statement. "Over the past day and a half, there have been a number of press reports based on information from unofficial sources that has been inaccurate. Since these stories often have unintended consequences, we ask the media, particularly at this early stage of the investigation, to exercise caution and attempt to verify information through appropriate official channels before reporting."

This is a terrible situation. What I can't fathom is a possible motive. Why would someone blow up joggers? There just doesn't seem to be any connection to making a political statement, or religious statement, or anything that fanatics usually get wrapped around the axle about.

My heart goes out to the victims and their families.

April 15th in Taxachussets? It's a home grown job.

As someone already pointed out, the crazy muslim extremists would be dancing in the streets and posting YouTube videos of their accomplishment if it had been them.

The latest is that there is some footage of someone setting one of the bombs down in security footage from Lord and Taylors. Kind of curious that the ricin laced letters had to have been mailed before the attack or on the same day as the Boston marathon.
