    I know the street it happened on VERY well. I was certain it was a gas explosion or something as Boston is an accident waiting to happen.

    They found 5 more unexploded devices. Something organized on this scale is a terrorist plot.

    They didn't actually find more bombs that was debunked later.

    What you need to understand about Boston is, that, well it's not the safest City in the world. Not due to crime but the whole city is basically a giant death trap in it's lay out. It extends to alot of it's buildings. The TD Garden is the worst designed arena I have ever been in And Security in the convention centers...can be real assholes I can only imigine the stick up the ass of security at Anime Boston this year now....I'm seriously rethinking going now.

    Anime Boston will be right down the Street from where all this happened.

    Could those be distraction devices since, they didn't explode? When you think about it, some of them were set off and others were unused. :/

    I have a lady friend in Boston, and I'm worried sickly about her right now.

    Its sad, yes, but id be more worried about more high class terrorist targets such as The WTC, Empire State Building, Pentagon, White House, etc.
    Roadside bombs are not anything as bad as a giant steel frame skyscraper being attacked.

    You should always worry about her. This one time I was in Boston we got lost and asked a Cop for directions...he personally ESCORTED US out of the neighborhood as it was THAT bad of a neighborhood.

    Boston is a wonderful city. Just not the safest.

    The suspicious man on the roof could be police watching for trouble.

    ... Or it was a slow work day and he just wanted to be helpful.

    Tired of this shit. When you create pages you can change names.

    Joe Schmoe creates "LIKE THIS PAGE IF YOU LIKE _______"

    Bombing happens, Joe realizes he can get lots of like if he makes another page, that ones already slightly establish so he changes the name.

    It was a street named after a Civil Rights leader.

    Those are never safe.

    Martin Luther King jr drive here in Atlanta is very dangerous, I keep a Glock 26 under my shirt when I'm down near there.

    Does the road you talk about look something like ours' ?

    No it looks like a place you're likely to get shot on. I know it's a joke but, typically, what I said is true. There's an exception to everything.

    Boston is still Safer than Providence or Wochester. Providence is a great City DURING THE DAY, then it gets all Castlevania 2 At night with Hookers, Pimps and Gangs doing their thing at night.

    So yeah, Boston is still a safer City than Providence

    I'm talking about what Providence turns into at night, not Boston. Providence being give or take about an hour away.
