    I'd say it's crashed from genuine high traffic rather than malicious.

    "The sounds of gunfire tearing through the streets of Watertown in the dark of night!"

    Fox News is so fcuking sensationalist, it's nauseating.

    I would imagine Fox will trump the anti-immigration angle rather than the Muslin angle.

    Folks, we let people in this country from war-torn areas and this is what happens.

    Easy pickings for the right-wingers, who are no doubt breathing a sigh of relief that this was not right-wing extremists at fault.

    It's more than likely not under attack, just huge strain from everyone trying to get on at once.

    (Unless they've said they're experiencing an attack).

    Edit: I'm wrong, apologies.

    Fair enough, i was simply making a joke that Fox literally have no other way to report things like this than "blame the muslims" doesnt matter where they are from

    Caught a bit of their hilarity earlier, they were talking about the CCTV pictures from the day of the marathon in relation to the guy who was wearing the white at the time. The insightful anchor was saying that it's such an American thing to do, wear a cap backwards, implying the suspect was a master of disguise.

    Did you see the clip the bbc are running of various student types interviewed last night after the shootout - one guy is saying he was told to turn back by police his car and 'I knew he was serious because he pointed a gun in my face' :pac:

    How far could this guy have got? By all reports both brothers were involved in that shootout in which the older one was killed, whether the younger one escaped on foot or by vehicle, he's obviously hiding somewhere close by. They would have locked down the entire area so highly doubtful he escaped by vehicle.

    The area they've locked down has a population of 400,000 people.

    It's gonna take a while to search the entire area but they seem pretty confident he's in there somewhere.

    This video liked by Tamerlan Tsarnaev blames society's ills on Harry Potter. You couldn't make it up.

    The area where the shootout happened last night is near a river on one side, and gets more wooded as you head north and west.
