CC InstaPoll - Predict the Cause of Marathon Blasts

[Phatscotty]

I think the streak of drugged up hippie types will continue.

[2dimes]

I had really been hoping it was an accident though, it's funny how that would somehow make it more ok.

Because an accident is not going to try again. I don't even have a guess but I hope they find and at least lock up who ever did it.

Some people are guessing that it's an Al Qaeda sympathizer (i.e. someone who is not associated with Al Qaeda but will operate on the group's behalf). I'm still going with my right wing nutjob vote for the reasons stated by others.

[DoomYoshi]

I have it on good authority that this was a called shot from the US government to hide the fact that they just scrapped the law on insider trading. Sort of a network news denial of service.

Therefore, both Left- and Right- wing domestic terrorists is correct, as the Repocrat party banded together to screw the American people. As a Canadian, my heart goes out to the American people, who live in a state with not one homicidal dictator, but an entire Senate which exists solely to make money and would resort to killing people to achieve its own means.

I am reporting this to the UN and to wikileaks. These psycho bastards will pay.

As others have mentioned, if this was an Islamic extremist or right/left wing group, you would think they would have claimed responsibility by now; otherwise what would be the point?

I'm betting it's a wing nut homicidal maniac who likes to kill people for the fun of it.

So glad you're on the case, DY.

This bombing is getting stupid. No new news. How do they expect to keep my interest if the storyline doesn't progress at all?

[Gilligan]

You can be damned sure it's all over the news here.

I also don't think it's al-qaeda. I mean, they could have done more and bigger explosions.

[Phatscotty]

Boston will pull through

Senator Wicker of Mississippi is the target of a Ricin attack ...

http://www.politico.com/story/2013/04/r ... ml?hp=t3_3

The letter was postmarked Memphis, Tenn., and had no return address, according to a message sent to staff by the Senate Sergeant at Arms.

The Senate went into recess shortly after 6 p.m. Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and FBI Director Robert Mueller began briefing senators shortly afterward. A Homeland Security official said that the briefing was intended to address cybersecurity but that the subject pivoted after the Ricin substance was discovered.

Wicker, a former House member, referred all comments to the U.S. Capitol Police.

Is this your way of saying Fox News did it so they would have something to talk about and get viewers back?

[AAFitz]

The possibilities are endless, and I loathe myself for even guessing, but if I had to choose, Id predict a right wing gun rights supporter, who chose this method to try and show that not only guns kill people.

[Army of GOD]

I loathe myself

welcome to the club

[Funkyterrance]

I'm guessing it was some "trenchcoat mafia" type whacko. Would that fall under domestic left-wing terrorist?

[DoomYoshi]

Pressure cooker parts were found, and linked to a recipe available on the internet. Since only the US DoD has access to the internet, it was them.

Sincerely, f*ck you guys for speculating this.

Isn't that precisely what the police/FBI are doing at the outset of their investigations?

Therefore Maugena wants to f*ck the police/FBI?


This thread has taken a new twist...

[crispybits]

I hate it when people say "f*ck the police!". Don't just f*ck the police. Take the police out on a couple of dates. Maybe to a movie or for a stroll in the park. Cook the police delicious home made food. Make them fall in love with you. Then f*ck the police. And then stop texting or answering their calls. Ignore the police. Make the police miss you. Make the police sad. Make the police cry....

Actually, statistically, you should just go ahead and give it a shot since you would be less likely to get divorced.

Why?

Sincerely, f*ck you guys for speculating this.

I agree that any jokes(tongue in cheek or no) are inappropriate but yeah I don't see a problem with speculating. That's the second thing I did when I heard the news was ask myself "Who and why?".

[Phatscotty]

This could possibly be an attack on gay marriage

Maybe Maugena "knows" someone who is a Bostonian?
