Awful news, haven't heard yet if there are any dead, but I'm hearing dozens injured.

This twitter feed is posting a lot of news regarding this

Police apparently blowing up another device according to scanner traffic.
All off-duty police officers called onto duty.
Keeping any further runners out of the area.

Thoughts that come to mind.
*First off crappy situation and I hope the victims and their relatives have the best possible outcome.
*It was only a matter of time and Im not surprised that it happened. Its more of a when and where surprise. Wonder if it is Islamic influenced or native bred (please dont be a prepper) [img]http://www.arrse.co.uk/at
*Wonder how this will affect the gun control debate?

Fox news said 3 dead and 10 amputees.
-
oh shit.
I wonder who's responsible for this?
Hope it isn't pinned on guys who look a lot like us.
-
Scanner reporting looking for a yellow Penske rental truck that was trying to gain access to explosion area with medical supplies was turned away. They now want to talk to this driver.
-
start screen capping incase they wanna change the story.
-
I feel bad for all the victims of government restrictions of the 2nd ammendment that we lose every day. Unrelated to this story but much more serious. Except that both are government funded tragedies.
-
Scanner traffic has died down, with alot moved to other channels. Boston does have top-notch trauma units, so those injured are at least in the best hands possible given the situation. Saw a pretty gruesome twitter pic of some poor guy with at least one leg blown-off, similar to an IED amputation. Prayers to those who have died and those injured, strength to all the families involved.

Say goodbye to Tannerite. :(

Just learn to make your own.

Isnt it jus ammomnium nitrate and aluminum powder? You can still get amonium nitrate even though it was used at OKC.

CNN is saying one of the deceased was an 8yr old child.

Good reason to keep a tourniquet in your EDC if possible. Perhaps a triangle bandage and a sturdy pen would work better for EDC.
-
Thanks for reminding me Ken my good man!
The Patriot Nurse posted this lil gem on her facebook page in light of current events.
I like how he uses everday carry items (to regular people) to improvise a tourniquet. Just sub the tri bandage for a large handerchief and its actual common items carried by people. Hanky, carabiner, and keys with key ring and your set!

Lol yeah I think I'd rather a pinch than lose my limb/life.

In case you have not thought about this already, let me frame the underlying context that the media will likely use to blame "domestic terrorists":
Where did this event occur? Boston.
What else occurred in Boston? The "Tea Party."
What was the "Tea Party" about? A protest of taxes.
What is today's date? April 15th... TAX DAY!!!
~Please excuse me for being "Captain Obvious"... I'm going on 26 hours.

Happy to see I'm not the only one seeing the "coincidence." I'm just waiting for the media to spin it on right wing conservative crazy Tea Party members. I shudder to think someone is using tricks right out of Hitlers playback, but it sure does seem that way.

As TG suggested, print and save what you can before it disappears from the internet or is rewritten.

All day I have heard the talking heads say everything from "It has to be these right winger extremist types" to the tongue in cheek "well this could be either foreign OR domestic".
Other things that I have heard was that Oath Keepers was having or at some event there in the Boston area. Also how this is the same time frame as other "domestic acts" such as OKC and Columbine. In my opinion the media is already casting the votes for the jury before the investigation is fully under way.
Another possibility is that should they claim it to be a foreign act they could use it as a pretext for more "Iraq/Afghanistan" like invasions.
All in all it has all the hallmarks and stinks to hell like a False Flag. Stay tuned and screen capture all websites/pics and record all audio/video you can!

Not trying to get all tinfoil hat or nothing but I had a buddy point out that the footage shows a low grade explosive going off like gunpowder or binary.
If there is a store in town that has powder in stock I would be there tomorrow morning.

During the height of the ammo scare a " device " made of " reloading components " would put a big hurtin on the ammo floating around the states. Just sayin.
-
LOL, TG, you and I are thinking the exact same thing. I am driving home from Philly today and on my way home driving through Providence I am going to pick up a few lbs of 3F...Maybe 1 lb of 4f too.
-
My belief is that this bomb was not outright designed to kill, just wound and maim. It is being reported that small ball bearings and small headless nails are being removed from the victims. Whether it is a statement from one shadow group to another, a pure False Flag or a distraction from other current happenings, if the goal had been a real body count the device would have been built differently.

Right on. Any plumber or handyman that keeps PVC around who also happens to be a reloader or black powder hunter will immediately be suspected as a bomb maker. Kinda scary how close we are to some of the books that are out there and see how they turned out.

Have you seen this the news about the leter with ricen for a the rep. senator Roger Wicker?

How the bombing and this relates? You as Americans, know something about why someone would try to kill that senator?

Stopped by my mom & pop gun store on the way home to buy some BP. He claimed he had none. He wouldn't commit as to when the next batch will be coming in. It is odd that he would be 100% out of all four or so sizes. When he told me he was out he wouldn't look me in the eye.
No worries...I have other sources just interesting.

Tin foil hat time?

Dear Friends,
Please be aware that there are what we call ?Bloomberg shills? lurking in the comments of gun blogs and forums at present. It has been going on since before the election, and we first noticed it as far back as our January 8th, 2012 article ?2nd Amendment Voters Should Vote Ron Paul.? At first it seemed like fun because they got a lively discussion going, and many of our articles have over 400 comments just because of a few anti-gun comments peppered in by a shill here and there. But as more and more of them have come in, we have begun to realize that it is better to delete them. The anti-gunners have a plan, and that plan is to make gun people look stupid, heartless, and separate from the values of mainstream America. A recent ?whistleblower? post about the Boston Marathon explosions is especially troubling. If you are part of a gun blog or forum, please don?t allow this post to spread, and beware that more attempts to make 2nd Amendment defenders look bad are coming.
As most of us have come to understand, this crisis has gone far beyond politics. We have seen an unprecedented and sustained attack on not just our guns, but the entire pro-2nd Amendment and avid shooter culture itself. We are being sold to the public as stupid and selfish people who don?t care about the safety of children. I got a forwarded Facebook post from an 86 year old family friend and staunch Libertarian yesterday that said ?The NRA Doesn?t Represent Me.? If only he knew what a fool he is being played for, but if you read through the lines, it is pretty clear that Bloomberg?s media campaign is working. The medicated masses are buying the story, because it is being presented in social media environment where people have already let their guards down.
For that reason, we have ceased to allow any anti-gun comments on our articles. This was a difficult decision, but we only did so after calling out several of the commenters and directly accusing them of being hired Bloomberg shills. None of them defended themselves, and we believe that this is exactly what they are. The anti-gunners aren?t just buying TV ads. They are hiring what are probably unemployed young people in New York City to fish around in pro-2nd Amendment social media to plant seeds of division, trying to hook the emotions of the vulnerable and anti-depressant medicated.
A common theme among the shills is to make us look stupid and ruthless in the furtherment of our cause. We think that they threw some bait into the water yesterday that could make gun people look very bad. It is a ?whistleblower? post about the explosions at the Boston Marathon, warning that it is some kind of false flag to ban the private sale of gun powder. I believe this ?warning? is meant to be re-posted on gun blogs and boards, and on a quick Google search, I see that it has already hit the FAL Files and a few survival boards. We am not going to include the post in this email because there is no benefit in spreading it, but it begins ?I work on a security commission and I?ve just received word to start on a campaign we?ve been working on for the last two months and now it all makes sense.?
The ?warning? then goes on to say that that explosions were a pre-planned event meant to result in the banning of the private sale of gun powder, and that a young person is to be arrested Friday with NRA magazines in his possession. The creators of this farce are hoping Alex Jones and all of the conspiracy websites pick it up, and some of them already have. We believe that this is a Bloomberg shill to make us look stupid, and ruthless, that we would co-opt a tragedy to further our cause. Obama?s people have indeed already tried to tie the explosions to ?Tax Day? in the hopes of making right wingers look like terrorists, but as we have explained before, Alex Jones is a turd in the punchbowl of 2nd Amendment freedom. You don?t have to have any ?theory? about the conspiracy to take away our 2nd Amendment rights. American ?gun control? was born in the aftermath of slavery, to keep guns out of the hands of freed slaves. Today it continues. The anti-gunners are using the deaths of 20 white kids to keep the guns out of the hands of their racial minority voting ?slaves? in the inner cities.
It could very well be that consumer black powder, not smokeless powder, was used to make those bombs. Upon seeing the billowing white clouds of smoke from the explosions, anyone who has ever shot black powder should probably have suspected that this was the explosive used. Bomb detecting equipment, and most likely the dogs as well, are not trained to detect black powder. I know this because I freaked out one day when I had to go through a airport sniffer after shooting BP. I hadn?t even washed my hands and realized it only when I was far too deep into the line. But the sniffer didn?t even hiccup. We have all heard the reports that the police were doing bomb dog drills before the explosions, and it could very well be that one dog thought he smelled something early in the day so they brought in more dogs, who unfortunately weren?t trained to sniff BP.
Somebody grabbed the obvious possibility that black powder was involved and turned it into this fake ?whistleblower? post about the more generic term ?gun powder.? Apparently U.S. Rep. Mike McCaul, chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, said ?most likely gun powder? was used in the devices. The ?Lone Wolf? language of that article does make it sound like they will pin this on a ?right wing terrorist,? but what makes this ?whistleblower? warning so suspect as a shill is that they do not specify black powder. As many of you know, modern smokeless powder, the kind you find in normal ammunition, does not explode when ignited. It burns, and it is of course also fairly ?smokeless.? Billowing clouds of white smoke like the ones we saw in Boston only come from black powder, and it is a lot easier to get than C4, and you don?t have to make it like the concoctions they speak about in the bomb making books. Granted, McCaul did specifically say ?gun powder,? but it is just too convenient that this post showed up yesterday, at the same time the talking point was implanted into the discussion. The post is almost definitely fake, and planted by people trying to make us look bad.
It is your choice how you treat and respond to anti-gun comments in a pro-2nd Amendment environment here on the internet. Please just be aware that these Bloomberg shills are lurking in your comments and on your boards, and that this is most likely only one of what will be many attempts to make 2nd Amendment defenders appear to have different ideals than mainstream America. We are mainstream America, and after the Heller and McDonald Supreme Court decisions, we were on our way to giving the opportunities of ?mainstream? to all Americans. Arm the permanent victims in our inner cities and we will give them back not just 2nd Amendment freedom, but all of the other freedoms they are robbed of by living under the umbrella of a permanent criminal narco-economy. The Wild West didn?t have the violent crime rates of Chicago and Washington DC, because in the Wild West, the good guys could shoot back.

Yeah you can thank CNN for that BS.
"Boston police: Despite reports to the contrary, there has not been an arrest in the marathon attack"

In my experience no powder is 'easy to get' these days!
I suspect false flag as a motive and have several bets out that the suspect is a white male 18-35 who has ties to a right wing militia and will appear wide eyed in court just like James Batman Holmes.
