Gugny Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 This sickens me. I'm hoping it was pranksters. I'm also hoping that they get is a schit ton of trouble when they're caught. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyst Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 I saw this on ESpN and the coverage following the anniversary and just felt upset. Its not like 9/11, or Dec 7, the OKC bombing,or even any other significant day. This is a day to me where I just think of how simple would have been to stop them.

ExiledInIllinois Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 This is a day to me where I just think of how simple would have been to stop them. Stop who? The original bombers or this loon today leaving two unattended backpacks @ the finish line while barefoot & dancing in the street shouting: "Boston Strong!" Hope the got the right dude.

Garion Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 What an idiot this guy in the story that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrader Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 Sad to say, but I bet you can expect to see a few more on Monday somewhere along the course. They can't police all 26 miles. There are too many idiot college kids along that course for something stupid not to happen, especially on one of the biggest drinking holidays of the year.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 the prankster needs some karma to come his way. http://news.yahoo.com/man-charged-hoax-near-marathon-finish-line-033304806.html this may not be the latest as the 2nd back was un identified he was being charged with possession of a hoax device, police said.

The second bag wasn't mentioned very much during the brief coverage last night. My guess is that they knew exactly where it came from and weren't concerned. They forced everyone to evacuate the area pretty quickly when it all happened, so I can see someone, even media, losing their bag during that rush. It's the same reason why there were lots of "suspicious devices" reported last year when everything happened, people drop stuff when in a panic.

Yes, different story if the second backpack was dropped/left behind during the evacuation. Parents forget about their kids in situations like that, never mind a backpack.

Parents forget about their kids in situations like that, never mind a backpack. And the crazy part is that they had to detonate that one too. Are we officially at the point now where we say "there's something electronic, better safe than sorry"? Maybe it's just the bomb squad venting a bit and having a little fun.

Are we officially at the point now where we say "there's something electronic, better safe than sorry"? Maybe it's just the bomb squad venting a bit and having a little fun. years ago ('85) I was flying out of Frankfurt Germany, when you boarded you had to identify your luggage on the tarmac before you got on the plane. All unclaimed luggage was blown up. don't know if they still do that, Edited April 16, 2014 by BillsFan-4-Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
