Reported on Fox news this morning, a Cleric in the Taliban called, and they do not claim responsibility for this. A member of a Pakistany group. So many others, like trying to find a needle in a haystack. gypsyman

This one will probable go down as a home grown, Right wing act of terrorism.
We don't want to stop with just background checks and the dreaded assault rifles.

This proves we now need to implement (Martial Law) until the Feds get a handle on it, and that might take twenty years or so.Just a temporary suspension of the Constitution :o

So a cleric calls and says.. Aint us.   How do they know who called? Why would a cleric call and say.. aint us or words to that effect, when they are at war with us anyway and have nothing to lose by letting us twist on the vine?

  Bombs have been said to be "designed" to maim and inflict terror, not to kill.  Anyone heard that about any other attempt made here in the U.S.?

 Looks like the "suspect" is really not.

 No mention of the propellent used although the words "ball bearing and pressure cooker" are being worn out.EDIT: Here it is.. gunpowder.

  Your right SM, i'm just now seeing some mention of it. I'll almost promise though,  for this to be used as evidence of a need to control powder. Wait and see and hope i'm wrong.

  I'm watching the updates from a press conference of FBI and local\state\fed authorities. I'm struck by the fact still, that they appear to have no leads whatsoever. Right at the finish line swamped with spectators, police and Homeland security, a bomb goes off and noone saw a thing..

  Another item i've noticed. Aside from an initial eyewitness report where a lady said that "Homeland security was on the scene in 5 seconds". From this point on, Homeland security has not been metioned by the media again. All of the reference is to the FBI instead.

It was pretty obvious that it was a low velocity explosive. My guess, black powder. The boom, the smoke and the description of a sulfur smell make me think that. Could have even been match heads.

It does sound like home made black powder and internal workings as was Oklahoma city.

 Now i see, they'll keep Homeland securities name outta this as its gonna go unsolved. All that'll matter is they will trace the propellent to Billy Bobs gunshop.  j

     Kinda strange homeland security was there on the spot so soon, It seem as if there are just too many of these instances with this Adminastration that they use for their benefit.  Jim   And Quote  (Make No Mistake we will get to the bottom of this )  Just like Fast & Furious and Bengasi.

These things always remind me of the old junk yard dog.  Laying asleep, someone kicks it, and it gets up barking, biting at anything around, and the kicker is already gone.  You see all the armored cars, rifle toting NG or swat, and guards everwhere.  Whoever set off the bombs is either at home watching TV, or on a bus heading for somewhere else.  But there is a need to ACT vigilant.  Now we will have to watch all the marathons, ball games, and other gathering places; maybe next time it will be the starting point, or midway, not the end.


Are bomb sniffing dogs trained to detect BP? or just nitro and such?  My thinking is that blakc powder was used because someone didn't know how to get dynamite or detonate it.  That goes to the theory that it is a local nut, not Moslem trained.  I doubt that the idea was, as the TV said, to NOT knock down buildings and maim instead of kill; whoever built the best bomb he knew how to, and maybe he found out that reloading powder doesn't make a good explosive, so used a couple cans of Goex. 
just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they are not watching you

Somewhere along the line, we as Americans, or maybe it was our government, decided to push "Social Imperialism" throughout the world. Perhaps it's because we stopped the Axis in WWII or the (former) power of the US dollar. The "why" really isn't really important now. This mentality that our standard of human rights, social values, and ethics should be forced upon other countries is sheer folly! Further, the nieve mind set that US medling in the affairs of other countries would not produce a backlash is simply ludicrous.

As one commentator put it, "The US needs to stop believing they are, and stop trying to be, the policeman of the world."

So very true! We need to cease trying to be the social conscience of the world. We need to no longer take notice of the social practices of other countries. We should simply trade with those willing to buy our goods and buy goods from others.

The FBI says the explosions in Boston are being treated as a terrorist event. If it is a foreign terrorist job and they do bring in the perp (s), so what?  Like that's going to scare the terror cells?  I think not.  Who really believes they will quit if one or more goes to prison or gets executed?   Now, if it's the work on one lone domestic nut, then yeah, prison or death row will stop him.

911, Boston, what's next?

As usual, just IMMO and I'm just saying.

I was there standing at the 26 mile sign curb on opposite side of street.  Saw and heard both bombs.  I was too far to see injuries.


My instinct was to avoid storm grates.  Kept looking into the sky for a plane.  Police told everyone to avoid trash cans.  Got herded down a side street in a direction I did not want to go.


Really left a lump in my throat all day.

Rumor update:  The Saudi punk that was a person of interest and then wasn't a person of interest and then is again was supposed to have been scheduled to be deported next Tuesday (April 23) for suspected terrorist activities.  This was prior to the Boston bombing.  The rumor also is that this guy is a member of a well connected Saudi family and the attempt was being made to get him gone real quick.  Since the cat is out of the bag, I guess he is on hold until we see who has the most sway.

I don't think they will find the culprit on the tapes.  The bombs were are timers.  They probably placed the bombs in the trashcans after they were emptied, night or early morning, and covered the bombs with trash and made their escape well before the bombs went off.  Fagor pressure cookers are very expensive compared to Prestos.  I think if the bombers were low tech red necks they would have used pressure cookers from Walmart.

I understood this Saudi national was released. One minute he is in the hospital guarded by guys with machine guns, then all of a sudden he becomes someone of no interest. If he isn't released I figure he will be, and anyone that claims he played a part will be labeled a racist. The government knows this Saudi guy will not be good for their gun grabbing, pro amnesty agenda, so he will be gone.
I don't think we will ever know who was responsible because government doesn't want us to know.
Obama said justice would be done after Benghazi, but where is the justice? The only thing that happened was the only witness disappeared, or died from mysterious circumstances. 
I figure a few months from now they will arrest some white guy, claim he is a right wing extremist, and say he did it, and the whole thing will disappear.
