Just heard at least 3 dead, 38 injured, some severely with limbs blown off. Eyewitness reports that the explosions came from trashcans. Boston Police are asking that no one use cell phones. It is also being reported they detonated a suspicious device and that another device may have been found in a nearby hotel.
New York City is instituting highest level security as are other cities (haven't heard anything about Chicago yet)...Boston is even curtailing and shutting down portions of public transportation
Are we under attack?
I already seen the nutjobs blaming it on conservatives. While the same nutjobs claim the shooting was a hoax to ban guns. You have a Schizophrenic person that would do something like this.
Damn. Ugly pictures coming out of this deal. Worst part, is that the people that died weren't even there for themselves, they were there supporting others. Yet another monumental milestone in catastrophic destruction.

word is several people are being interviewed as people of interest due to burn locations etc etc there is no suspect. Something says this is just a start
confirmed 8 YOA boy as one of two dead with 17 or so in critical condition
There isn't much we can do to "defend" against soft target attacks like this. Best we can do to be prepared is to be ready for what happens after the attack. I think our First Responders are admirable for what they do and how they've evolved even after 9/11. We will be back to normal fast, and being back to normal so fast is the best deterant we can employ. When these cowards see they can't have the big lasting effects they are after, they lose motivation.
