Man, the asshats on both sides never let an opportunity pass without tripping over themselves to blame the "other side" first.

I know several people that were in the Marathon. One was literally across the street as one of the bombs went off. Thank God they're ok but prayers to everyone that was not as fortunate.

I honestly don't have a clue what the f[Inks] you're talking about or why you felt a need to share it.

You're going to troll me here, too? Wow. I guess garbage stinks regardless of the day.

Here's what I felt the need to share that didn't meet your immediate approval, brittain: left wingers calling it a "far right wing militia" attack and right wingers insisting it's an Islamist attack. Now it's not even good enough for me to openly criticize both sides.

But I'm glad you took the time and effort to cut out part of my post where I mentioned friends of mine being across the street just so you can question why I felt the need to share my point.

We're here talking about the attack and what happened and sharing news, and you come in to drop a stinking turd about "asshats" on "both sides" when that's not even what we're talking about. If you want to start a thread where this bombing is a chance for you to express outrage at left-wingers, kindly take it the f[inks] elsewhere.




Except my post clearly called out both sides so quit your BS "boogeyman Phil" routine about me wanting this to be a place to express outrage over left wingers. And, again, you ignore the second half of my post about this because it isn't convenient for your talking points.

My comments are no different than people piling on ChairmanSanchez for his earlier thoughts on the matter so don't tell me it's off topic. Not everyone came in here and "shared news" as it happened either. They threw in their own commentary. You happened to cherry pick mine to make it seem like I was launching a political attack on left wingers. Blatantly false.

And please spare me your holier-than-thou nonsense with this. You troll me everywhere else. You can let this one be. And if you really don't care for my comments, there's an ignore button (which you won't use because you love to bait).

Chris Matthews states that the attacks could have been motivated by "anti tax, anti big government" feelings. Also mentioned "Taxachusetts."

Is that really out of the realm of possibility?



I personally don't think the Boston Marathon would be targeted by someone with "anti tax" motives but right now, none of us have a good idea exactly what motivated someone to do this aside from wanting the kill people. I find speculation about the bomber's political leanings to be inappropriate.  You know, kind of like what I said earlier before someone threw a fit simply because I said it.

I never heard of Alex Jones before this thread.

You've missed out on a lot of aggravation.
