Explosion at the Boston Marathon.

The human race that thought that posting a poll on the bomber's origin would be fun at this point?
 
I wouldn't be too quick to assign blame to a particular party just yet. This is an event known worldwide so the date may have nothing to do with it. Location, location, location as they say in the real estate biz. 9/11/2001 was also just a random date.

Remember that at first the OKC bombings were attributed to "Arab looking" people. The reality was far from that. The FBI, ATF and DHS are all on this like flies on ****. They will figure it out in due time.

No doubt. It's natural for us to speculate after this kind of event, though. As long as we remain conscious of the fact that it's merely speculation.
 
Also, if the clock was showing around 4:10, anyone crossing the line at that time is running faster than a 4 hour marathon, because it takes the back of the pack many, many minutes to even get to the starting line after the race clock starts ticking.
Also, in order to handle the growing number of runners the field is now divided into three waves with the third one starting 40 minutes after the first.
So assuming the clock seen in the video was showing the time elapsed since the first start those starting last would still have been less than 3½ hours into their race.
 
WFAN-NY is reporting a person who is "of interest to police" is in custody and is currently being treated in a hospital for "severe burns."

Suicide bombing?
 
Boston police flatly denying they have anyone in custody, and said they have no idea where that report came from.
