    Yeah they seemed a little panicked to get that yellow truck. Just gave another suspecious person who tried to access an area before the explosion. Pretty vague , black male, black hoodie, black bag....

    Is it perhaps possible its just some guy on the roof for some other reason and not terrifying at all?

    was pic taken before or after explosion?


    I just don't know anymore, the fear is too great.

    Of course he's muslim, is anyone surprised. Such a violent religion, how can the leaders justify their beliefs

    Actually its a very peaceful religion but dont let that stop you ranting.

    This penske truck (think DHL) stuff is odd.

    tried to access the scene with medical supplies, turned away tries again, now can't be found

    Sounds like that film Arlington Road, which portrayed domestic terrorism.

    It could be nothing at all, of course.

    Seeing some incredibly graphic pictures on facebook. Some people need to cop on. Doesn't bother me personally, but anyone could see them.

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    3rd explosion was controlled on another street

    JFK library explosion being treated as related

    I think it deserves more flack for not being anywhere near as funny as it should have been.

    Ah come on! that was a great little film!

    Now trying to be stopped according to the scanner - they have just denied that they are looking for a specific truck at the press conference

    its being reported the 3rd bomb at the JFK? library wasnt a controlled explosion aftreall

    There were 4 explosions total, one was controlled on "Boyle(?) Street" according to press conference.

    That's probably where the confusion was.

    Scanner reporting they're looking for a "Black male, black hoodie, black backpack".

    Thats what they say, doesnt look like it to me. How can such a relatively huge percentage of them turn to violence in such a peacful religion.

    Bhuddism is a peacful religion, not muslim.

    Were they being sarcastic? Sorry if I mis read the post.

    post was about the police issuing a warning to general public to stay away from marathon route ..... in order for them not to be blown up

    hence.....the police didn't blow up anyone

    post he commented on sarcastic but not interpreted that way etc etc

    If the culprit is Muslim and identified as being on an All Quieda mission and lived in Iran for a few hours back in 1989 I wonder will be seeing Tehran carpet bombed and a USA war on terror stopping off to liberate the oppressed Iranian people

    Love the way the runners kept on going despite the explosion.

    Yes...a huge percentage :rolleyes:

    And btw...Its Islam.

    The police scanner is dead handy in getting up-to-date with this dreadful incident. They seem extremely suspicious of a man with black hoodie and black bag alright....

    Can someone link me to the story/comments about the truck trying to bring medical supplies?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,110 ✭✭✭KevR


    Sky News saying mobile phone towers shut down to prevent any further devices being triggered via mobile phone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,655 ✭✭✭El Inho


    I'm pretty sure any group responsible will be announced when its known. Speculation now is most likely boarding on, if not simply, racist.
