That is MY town...

[phyncke]

I grew up in Boston, well North of Boston. Anyone within a certain radius of the city just says they are from Boston. That is our town. Yes, we are tough and resilient. Obama got that right. I am taking this news very personally. I got weepy as I read CNN today about it. Who ever the low life, scum sucker is that did this will pay for it. I hope they catch them. I am watching the 8pm news cast and my feelings run the gamut from angry, to upset, to stunned to just plain mad. I cannot believe this has happened. Marathon Day is a day of celebration in Boston. Everyone is off and I guess you could not pick a better place or time to plant those bombs. So many people go downtown and hang out and cheer on the runners. So many people, throngs of people so vulnerable to attack. No one has claimed this in the name of anyone yet - that makes me wonder if it was "terrorists" or more local. Who knows? I just want them to catch them and get justice of the kid who died today and the injured and suffering.

I cannot believe this has happened. Just writing it out here and sharing my feelings
