It could be a gasline explosion, but I know we have been bombed. They got us again.

Let's not go that far just yet.

If this is indeed an attack, I'd have to think that it's domestic.

To be fair, there are runners from a multiplicity of countries. Of course this means nothing.

Police saying that devices have been found inside trashcans, urging people to be wary of trashcans.

Mile 26 was dedicated to the Newtown victims, and one of the explosions was near the VIP section where several Newtown families were seated.

Holy shit

Cops dispatching bomb-sniffing dogs and SWAT teams.
