And it's Patriot's Day. Sick.

Tom Harrington ‏@cbctom now Reuters now reporting anti-terrorism units are fanning out across Manhattan to protect key landmarks, including hotels

CNN is reporting that up to 6 people are injured while Fox News is reporting that 3 people are confirmed dead, and up to 30 people injured.

 

[pixburgher66]

The video really really really looks like it was something in a trash can. There are some horrific pictures hitting the internet. Lost limbs...so much blood.

 

[pixburgher66]

Also: I'd believe 30 much easier than 6.

Will Brinson ‏@WillBrinson now RT @Fara1: Police officer near Boston Marathon finish line: 'There are secondary devices that have been found and are unexploded.'

 

[pixburgher66]

They think they found a device near Madarin Hotel, and now reports of one found in front of JFK Library.

Watch this turn out to be a moron with a M80 or some other fire work that was " just celebrating"

This looks much more like terrorism than an idiot.

Andrew Brandt ‏@adbrandt now RT @katz: Boston scanner: "Incendiary device" possible at JFK Library. Advising people to get away immediately.

This looks much more like terrorism than an idiot.

What's the difference?

@BurkieYCP: Folks I am ok. Mom and sisters too. Was no where near finish line at time. Working on friends and family now.

 

[pixburgher66]

Burkie is okay (Patrick was running it). Thank God, because his last tweet started with "If I don't make it..." obviously joking about the marathon.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

What's the difference?

Terrorism actually involves putting some thought into an idiotic action.

Billy Corben ‏@BillyCorben now Report: Lenox Hotel in Boston being evacuated

What's the difference?

yeah this really is the point. there is no difference anymore. just people wanting to kill people.

Im also stunned by twitter

I cant believe this
I dont believe this happened.

these types of statements kind of bewilder me with everything that goes on in the world that these are not expected. it doesnt scare me enough to go out in large gatherings as I really have no control and dont want to live in any fear. but Im just not shocked this happens. I guess Im more shocked that it gets through whatever security is used in todays age. Im so very sorry that this happened and that people have died and have been hurt. i guess Im just shocked that it doesn't happen more often with how lax this world is.

This is the one time I believe Fox over CNN



Also, holy shit

Actually I follow both and have noticed Fox is usually ahead of CNN when a major story like this breaks. Don't ask me why but I've seen it a few times.

You could hear a man yell out that someone is dead on one of the video clips that Fox News played. I don't think that was supposed to air?

They also reported that a chef used his apron as a tourniquet for a lady that lost her leg.

They are reporting ball bearings were used in the devices.

I hate to say this but it just seems like the world is going to hell in a hand basket. People are so god damned fucked up.
