Danny Amendola ‏@DannyAmendola 9h I will DONATE $100 for EVERY pass I catch next season to whatever "Boston Marathon Relief Fund" there is. And $200 for any dropped pass.

 

Doing something like that is nice, but why not just donate some money now? If you plan on giving, no need to wait and see how many passes you are going to catch/drop.

I hope and pray we get who did this and justice prevails. My fear is we are going to see a lot more of this sort of thing.

I saw something this morning about a man on top of a building caught on camera. Any leads on that yet?

 

Based upon the pics that CWB posted, I'm putting very little stock in that. Several things bother me about it.

 

1. The guy is walking TOWARDS the front of the building, not away from it.

2. It seems very apparent that he is indeed, walking, not running.

3. From that vantage point, I do not believe he could actually see the street.

 

Would not surprise me in the very least that it's the apartment building's maintenance guy checking on the roof AC or something like that.

Anyone seen if anyone is claiming this yet?

I understand, I'm not trying to accuse anyone. I just think we need to stay on topic on this one, nothing more.

That said, it was said in the recent briefing there are "no known additional threats", Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick said that all parcels left at the scene have now been examined and no additional bombs were found.

 

Asked if any suspects are in custody, FBI Special Agent in Charge Rick DesLauriers tells reporters he's "not going to say who might or might not be in custody right now."

 

A doctor who treated victims says an X-ray indicated that BBs or ball bearings may have been packed into the explosives.

 

To the bolded, I take that as they either have someone(s) in custody, or they are looking for someone(s), and they just don't want to cause a commotion about it. I also read last night about the ball bearings.

Not that I've heard. As far as any suspects, this is all I've heard:

 

Asked if any suspects are in custody, FBI Special Agent in Charge Rick DesLauriers tells reporters he's "not going to say who might or might not be in custody right now."

 

DesLauriers told reporters that "we will go to the ends of the earth" to apprehend those responsible.

I guess I hope that this is not a home grown terrorist attack. Not that it matters to those injured, but if this is a home grown attack it will do more to tear the country apart than if it was carried out by foreign terrorist.

I agree with Deuce, it sounds like they may have someone in custody but not wanting to let it out yet.

Could be, I'm not certain one way or the other though. Hopefully they will know soon and apprehend them.

It does sound that way. But that's just a gut feeling for me.

On second thought, it could mean they have absolutely nobody in custody, or no sturdy leads. That would also cause quite an uproar. Who knows. I agree hopefully something breaks soon.

I lean towards it being a home grown terrorist. Those types of terrorists seem to like to attack around April 15th.

 

As to tearing the country apart, not a chance. There is no terrorist attack I can think of that could cause that. The bigger any attack is, the more the country comes together, and the more the attacker has to fear. The only entity that will be torn apart will be any group that was behind the attack if it is more than just one or two individuals.

Remember, it took years and multiple attacks for the authorities to (correctly) identify the Atlanta bomber, and several years after that to apprehend him.

I heard they had suspect that was under medical care at a hospital

Also, we're so used to one specific name-brand of terrorism that always takes credit for their attacks. May not come out like that, this time.
