So I have CBS on now, and whoever is talking is saying that ""lookiing at the threat matrix" there doesn't look like is the start of a broader attack. He's also saying it's probably bombs but no one knows who is behind it. And that it could be not an attack on America in general but an attack on Boston in particular.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

And that it could be not an attack on America
Huh. I actually wasn't thinking that it might be, until I read your post. I was thinking domestic wingnut. Can't say why, really.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's disproportionately freaking me out that someone who sees that animated GIF on the Post page will see someone they know collapsing, maybe injured.
My mother and I were just talking trash about someone last night who ran today and isn't an elite runner, so I'm kind of scared to look too close.

Well, that's good. The unexploded bomb that they already did a controlled explosion on was planted just past the finish line.
I don't know about the reports of finding two more bombs. I know they've got bomb sniffing dogs in the area, probably focused on the trash cans along the race route.

Mostly I just don't think that way, even after 9/11. Which is naive as hell, I know. But I still assume it's domestic wingnuts.

Right. And the explosion at the Atlanta Olympics.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Huh.
6 years ago on Marathon Monday a gunman killed 32 people at VA Tech. I spent the day frantically calling friends. Now doing it again. Scary.
Is it the anniversary of the VA Tech shooting?
