Explosions at the end of the marathon are now officially being called "bombs".

Again 2 more devices have been found in other areas of Boston. Going from bad to worse and a potential large scale situation quickly

It's this kind of racist attitude that is doubling the terrorism problem in the west. An attack happens and ignorant uneducated people turn to their nearest Muslim on the street and take their anger out on them. Either a glare or a few choice words or what not. Well guess what? That really makes you feel better? Cause he or she had nothing to do with it but hey, he might have had to endure many acts of racism and maybe you comment pushed him over the edge and now this U.S born, hard working Muslim says screw it, I'm treated like an outsider anyways through no fault of my own so, they call me a terrorist? I'll act like one...and there you go. Home grown terrorist.

Yeah yeah boo hoo, we are dealing with attacks and I'm crying of racism. Well people like me are dealing with twice the crap that others have to deal with. I deal with fear of attacks just like my white friends, but before, after and during it I deal with racism. Examples? In span of 2 months, my little kid spit on and yelled at, paki terrorist, tons of mean glares and stares, racist comments randomnly at mall by punk teens. By the way I'm not even Muslim, I'm Indian.

Point is, all I hear on tv after attacks happen is, even in these terrible times we can see ray of light as Americans/Canadians come together and unite and stand strong. Really? Do they mean all the white americans? Cause I don't see any unity just division.

That's my rant. The terrorist attacks will happen, but do we have to fight amongst ourselves too? Cause trust me, it's brewing. I see it all the time. Racist attacks and then retaliations for those racist attacks. This is getting bad and America is in trouble. Melodramatic? I don't think so.

My prayers go out to the victims and victims' families. God Bless America and take your frustrations out on the right people. Your government IMO. Take care guys.

Whilst i agree with some of what you said, It's -5000 that this was carried out by Muslims, Unless the North Koreans are up to something this has been done by who we think it is.
