    The date and location of the bombing, probably has something to do with the tea party, or maybe is supposed to look that way?

    Well, IF this pans out to be the guy.....or one of them....then I would think the first order from the president should be to ban all Saudia student Visa's. We don't need to take this chance anymore....

    A lot of permutations. The date is significant in North Korea as well

    True, we don't know yet. But this man was supposedly tackled by people there who saw it happen and saw him.

    I'm thinking it may likely have something to do with what's going on right now at Gitmo.

    Good old bombs. But by whom is still not known. Others have posted that they are questioning a Saudi student but I do not know that for sure and the news I just watched did not mention it. And no one has yet claimed credit.

    NEWNAN, Ga. - A retired Georgia Bureau of Investigation agent says he believes Monday's bombing at the Boston Marathon is domestic terrorism. Charles Stone was with the GBI for 25 years. He was part of the bomb task force and co-authored a book titled Hunting Eric Rudolph about the search for the man accused in a string of bombings, including one during the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. Stone said he saw similarities between Monday's Boston bombing and the 1996 bombing at the Olympics. "I was at the scene at the bombing in Atlanta about five minutes after the bomb detonated and to see all the casualties there, same type, leg injuries, people that couldn't hear, people that were just in a daze from the concussion," Stone said. Stone said that by looking at the smoke in Boston, he suspects it was a powder bomb that was set, which bomb which leads him to believe it was not the act of an international terrorist. "I would say it was domestic or somebody didn't have a lot of bomb building experience. I do believe the person was looking for mass casualties," Stone said. "I mean, he wouldn't have put a bomb in a place that was filled full of unprotected spectators. "

    Do libs really care who did it?

    No one was shot with an AR-15 and a 30-round mag so as far as the leftwing gun grabbers are concerned it's no big deal.

    I heard this earlier. He is not involved with the case and is trherefore talking out his ass. I want real news not the blatherings of retired what-ever looking to pad his wallet with dramatic hear-say information.

    As long as it was not Islamnazism, thats all they care about. They hope preferably that it was some group who pretend to be Christians to deepen their hate of real Americans.

    You see, we've switched from Muslims to Americans. Now you conservatives have to get with the program and hate Americans.

    According to libs orbiting around Planet Obama there is no such thing as Islamnazism.

    To hear libs tell it Muslims are just poor mistreated people striking out at Western/white oppressors in righteous justification.

    This was professionally done, so it is likely it could have been done by someone with military experience like Timothy Mcveigh.

    As for Muslim extremists, since 9/11 the government has spent vast amounts of taxpayer resources targeting only that threat. That could be why most of the violent incidents since then have been by caused American's.

    Government resources should be equitably distributed for all threats, instead of just focusing on the Islamic threat. A Militant American is equally as dangerous as a Militant Muslim.

    Except that there are not a billion militant Americans floating around the casbah's of Islam waiting for their chance to kill Americans.

    What we should do is limit the access of foreign militants by not letting them in the US in the first place.

    The U.S. military does it for them.

    Is anyone else as depressed as I am that the instinctive response of so many people to this kind of tragic incident is to just spout political, religious and/or racial hatred at their usual targets?

    Would agree only because foreigners take high tech jobs from Americans, but how many foreigners successfully carried out mass violence since 9/11?

    The governments priorities are not properly aligned with the threats, but that is not President Obama's fault as more than half of the country has a knee jerk reaction to think it's related to foreign instead of domestic terrorism without any evidence. That is why he said not jump to conclusions.

    Not really and it is kind of amusing .
    I am waiting for the obligatory "Boston was a hoax" threads .

    Face it , people give zero (*)(*)(*)(*)s about the victims and they want to use the tragedy to prove that "they are right" .

    So you would rather assume it's domestic terrorism (white guys maybe?) instead of the obvious suspects from Islam?
