I am just wondering how they can be so far apart on the death count. They're also saying from "23 to over 100 injured" depending on who you listen to. If they're not sure, they need to just say that. Of course even one is too many.

The press always tries to outscoop one another to be the first with the right information, meaning they tend to report unconfirmed things hoping that the confirmation will come later. When you got multiple hospitals involved, yu got multiple sources you got to add up, confirm, etc. etc. That's why initial reports are always to be taken as conditional, and not used to form a permanent basis for analyzing the incident. Unfortunately these days a lot of this shit gets set in stone and believed years later as "the truth" even though totally discredited by later investigation.

How odd, we feel the same way about the left wing sometimes.

Oh and here is one of our distinguished politicians of a Democrat persuasion.

The pattern is becoming too, too familiar. So, Boston cops were having a "bomb squad drill" on the same day as... Boston marathon bombing happened on same day as 'controlled explosion' drill by Boston bomb squad

[MENTION=3388]walruskkkch[/MENTION] Glad to know that you missed being in the middle of the carnage. What a sad day. I just saw that they've announced a third death.

[MENTION=3260]lilpogie[/MENTION] Are you in that area as well? Best to all.

No, not anywhere near there. I'm in Missouri, but I have friends who live around there.

The bombs were made from pressure cookers. We need to ban the sale of pressure cookers. Any existing pressure cookers should require background checks on their owners and a registration process.
