Explosions near end of Boston Marathon.

[Dohc-WP]

This happened in Boston.

Boston is a town in Erie County, New York, United States. The population was 8,023 at the 2010 census. The town is named after Boston, Massachusetts.

That would be incorrect.

[Dohc-WP]

That would be incorrect.

yeah, this threw me off "Boston Marathon shockwave felt in NYC"

I still think its sad and shocking, to target the people at an event like this. And the fact that so far they have no idea who is behind the bombings. Some of the photos I saw will haunt me for life.

I think it's appalling that those images were published. That there is what is wrong with society. If a couple were photographed having sex in the stands at the marathon you'd not be allowed to publish it but blown off limbs are fine. Hell, they needn't even be having sex, they could just be sitting there naked.

Yeah I have to agree! Those are people with friends and families. You can't un-see some of those images especially if you know the person.

[durrrr]

Russians. Russians everywhere.
