Two explosions at Boston Marathon finish line injure dozens: reports
- Thread starter karrie
- Start date
It was domestic.
Home made black powder devices, the garbage cans provided shrapnel.
Low over-pressure, huge slow flash, white smoke and a thump rather than a bang or boom.
Commercial/military explosives don't smoke like that or flash like that.
The minimal smoke from commercial/military is usually yellowish/orangy/brownish from the oxidizers and sulphates.

Yep, there's some real bastards in this world!
Yep, the sad part is when/if they do the lawyers will keep the case open for years. I'm not sure if Massatchusetts has "Ol' Sparky", but if so it should be getting a tune up!
There'll be lots of people in Britain looking with glee at a city which funded the IRA suffering from an IRA-like attack.
Now Bostonians know what the people of Britain had to put up with for many years - rather than an isolated attack like Boston - by a terror organisation which they funded.

Seriously? You feel glee over the deaths of three people and wounding of more than 100 because some of the IRA's funding came from Boston?
You are one sick motherhumper. Bet the Shankill Butchers just got your little wiener hard, didn't they?
I'm merely telling the truth. You're one naive individual if you don't think there are many people in Britain looking with glee at a city which funded the IRA suffering from its own IRA-like attack.
The fact that Boston has suffered a terrorist attack caused by bombs placed in litter bins, just like the IRA used to do (such as in 1993 in Warrington when two children were killed and many injured), must be one of the great ironies of the century.
I am sure all those killed yesterday were Irish Republicans from the Irish neighborhoods.
Idiot.
Idiot.
So am I. I repeat, you're a sick motherhumper. How do you feel about Liverpool? A lot of the IRA's funding came from there too.
Hey, I'm perfectly cool with the country that burned the White House getting fu*ked up by anybody who feels like doing it. . . Irish, Muslims, Germans, whatever.
England had it coming.
People said exactly the same thing that I'm saying now when another city which funded the IRA - New York - suffered from its own terrorist attack on 9/11.
The irony that New York City suffered a terrorist attack was not lost on many people in Britain.
And it was no coincidence that American funding of the IRA dropped hugely after 9/11.
T-Bones... he's just another hater and is enjoying the morning.
Another thankless brit who still thinks the sun rises and sets on the empire.

Can you tell me what I'm saying wrong?
I'm merely telling the truth that there'll be many people in Britain who think it hugely ironic that a city which gave loads of money to the IRA via NORAID should suffer its own terrorist attack exactly like an IRA attack. It's uncanny.
And guess which city NORAID was based in?
Yep, you guessed it. Boston.
The sheer irony...
Three posts from other than some silly briddish post... you're having too much fun this morning.
Again... any Irish Republicans killed yesterday?
I doubt any donors from the S. Boston- Charlestown neigborhoods were killed.
But ok Blackleaf... ok... enjoy the day.

It's funny how the Bostonians funded the IRA for years but then complain when terrorism like they were funding hits their city.
The irony is not lost on millions in Britain, I'm afraid.
Not entirely. You are carefully avoiding telling the truth that you, personally, are delighted.
Hardly surprising. This is the sort of decency we've learned to expect from the English.
The jealousy of the client states, Eagle. Comes with the territory when you're a power. Especially from the client states that used to be powers.
Could it be that he is just lashing out after all the shyte posted in the Margaret Thatcher thread?
I'm not sure such a limp-wristed English punch deserves the term "lashing." And no, not really. I think he's limping out because he lives in a has-been country dominated by its ex-colonies and France and Germany.
Mags had the last pair of intact testicles south of Hadrian's Wall. Now that she's gone, the highest English virtue is impotent spite.
Just because somebody from Boston allegedly does something doesn't mean all people from Boston do something or should be held responsible.
And I doubt most Britons would be gleeful. Probably only the sick and twisted few (like yourself).
