There have been explosions. If this is *not* related to the marathon bombers I may never sleep again. I know it's a leap, but cops from Boston, Cambridge, Watertown, Burlington and other cities, MBTA Transit police, State Police, FBI and Homeland Security, K9 and other cops would make this amateur think it might be the guys.
Buzzfeed always had some good guerrilla reporting

Okay, now the local reportage is saying yes, these are the two men wanted for the bombing at the marathon. One was shot and taken into custody and then he died. The other, somehow, is still on the loose in Watertown. Understandably, Watertown residents are urged to stay indoors.
Yeah...that kid Kitzenberg, who's been on msnbc for hours, is quite the amateur reporter.
Man, that handcuffed naked guy! Thank g-d for pixilation.
I am a wreck.

Oooooh, you and me both, Dame.
I really need to go to sleep.
I'm going to try.
nbc is now reporting that there may be a "strong possibility" that the 2nd suspect is hiding out in a bldg in Watertown.
Given the recent vote in the senate, it'll be interesting to see how these guys acquired their firearms.

Link?
Chechnyan-militant terrorist attacks in the US? (If indeed that's what they turn out to be...)
I don't think anyone saw that one coming...
AP: Surviving Boston bomb suspect identified as Dzhokhar A. Tsarnaev, 19, of Cambridge, Mass.
Info still seems fluid. At first, reports were that these guys entered the country a year ago. Now, they're reporting that they entered the country ten years ago.
"Chechen," sorry, not "Chechnyan."
This is what I mean about Buzzfeed:
What We Know About Boston Marathon Bomb Suspects Dzhokhar And Tamerlan Tsarnaev
I've been channel surfing the various network and cable news channels trying to find a journalist...no luck yet. If there is a journalism sighting, please let me know.
Has anyone heard that these two are FROM MIT? (My sister said she's heard that) I'm assuming she's confusing the info since the current kerfuffle begain at MIT.
I had heard that neither were students at any college/university.
Machado said Dzkokhar was a student at University of Massachusets – Amherst and worked as a lifeguard at Harvard University.
Classmate: Suspect showed no signs of ‘malicious behavior’
islamic terrorists from Chechnya have been killing innocents in russia for years.
F*CKin' Russians.
great, make light of innocent people being killed and terrorized. classy jordan
Remember what we talked about yesterday, dipshlt? Just because you write something to try and make it seem someone is a certain way to make yourself feel better it doesn't make it so. I in no way made light of anything and anyone with half a brain knows that.
And you said you're a high school student so why are you constantly posting throughout the day?
