There are some pretty graphic pictures on Twitter right now. So horrible. I was very close to that location, within feet, last year watching the finish. Just...awful. 

There were so many people in those blocks.

If there is any good news, it is that I've yet to hear about any deaths.

Praying that this continues to hold true.

"The marathon was being run in honor of the victims of the Newtown massacre. Some families were apparently watching from near the finish line."

Dear god...haven't these poor people been through enough.

I really hope this isn't the work of some right-wing nut job(s) who quote the Thomas Jefferson "tree of liberty..." speech.  Sick!

I saw that as well just a couple of minutes after making that post

 

+1 to leaving all politics the hell out of this.  It has no place here.

"Look for the helpers.  You will always find people that are helping."  - Mr. Rogers. 

Unfortunately it's another time that this quote is one way to help people through something like this.  I am shaking my head in disbelief.  Nothing is safe, nothing is sacred, nothing is immune.

ETA: +2 (I speak for my toddler) for no politics.  I can't believe that seemed like a good choice right now, a mere 60 minutes or so after the event happened.

If you watch the video where they are running in and the explosion goes off, the guy in a orange shirt gets rocked so hard he is knocked to the ground. Seeing all the blood on the ground... horrible. Depressing. Who wants to bomb a marathon? I feel so sorry for all the people who are hurt, the families of those people and the ones who are dead, and for the runners who waited for this day, to have it end in tragedy.
