I hope it is the right person of interest and I wish I could be in a small room with a person who would do such a cowardly thing.

I am old and not very good at beating up people. I don't know if I am good at it, I never have done it but I would like to try sometimes.

I used to work at Saks Fifth Ave. on Boylston St. very close to that area, used towalk by there everyday! I thank God that it wasn't detonated when the first runners came through the finish line, many more people would've been injured and/or killed. Tens of thousands of people go to that area every year for the Marathon, OMG!

Gracie, I only know you through your posts here in the last couple of months I have been a member, and I know you to be very kind hearted...so that doesn't sound like you...BUT, I can understand the feeling.

There are no suspects, quoting the BPD Commissioner just now!

Just received a text from my brother-in-law.. An old friend of his is in Boston and he wasn't too far from the second explosion. He says the carnage he witnessed was horrific and has left him devastated. He is just now leaving the site after being debriefed.

They interviewed a doctor at one of the hospitals and they received seriously grave injuries to not as severe. Sounds like there are some suffering from severe burns. Please God hold them in your loving arms and guide our medical people in treating them.

What scares me is that the ones guilty of 911 got on those planes in Boston...

I am in disbelief and stunned. I swallow hard to fight my tears for these wonderful people.running the marathon and those who were spectators supporting the runners. I just can't believe these coward stuck again. Prayers to all involved. Just heard that an 8 year old little girl was among the casualties. This is just painful.

Still can not find out if a buddy of mine who runs in the race is ok. We have friends visiting us this week who have relatives in Boston to watch the race. They are in a restaurant near the bombing site and the police have them locked in.
