    Another explosion at the JFK library in the area. Clearly Boston is under attack.

    The death toll is going to stay low for a while with victims spread out at numerous hospitals. There was some footage very early on of two responders talking and one tells the other he saw three dead right off the bat, but I have not seen that footage since.

    Lots of rumors, theories, etc. on social sites. It's getting tough to figure out what is legit and what is not.

    From Twitter: Fire & smoke in CHICAGO's Red Line subway

    Absolutely no idea if related, but if in a major city it's probably best to be on edge.

    That did not take long for a politician to use a tragedy in such a manner.

    Supposedly some moronic guest at CNN speculating political leanings behind attack as well.

    Some theories that timing may be related to other Patriots Day attacks or late April events: Columbine, OKC, Waco, etc.

    Yep bet it was Russert or people of his ilk linking it to Waco and OK City both of which were around this time of year (Patriots Day)

    No cell phone service in Boston now to prevent cell phones used to detonate bombs.
