  • Please say a prayer for the people that are injured that they have a speedy recovery and also pray for the families of the people that were killed. We do not know when it is our last day, so it is important to tell our loved ones that you love them.

    it is so sad! I was able to get in touch with one of my sisters that's there but she's been separated from her family and can't get in touch with them. I of course try to read what little I can online since I'm at work and there's people making freaking evil comments!
  • Three explosions. One of them controlled because they found a third device and detonated it themselves... latesst i've heard

    In Boston they are saying no casualties yet. I just came in from watching at mile 23 when it happened. Can't get a hold of anyone all phone circuits jammed up.

    They are suggesting trying to text the people you are attempting to locate since it uses less bandwidth

    They shut down the cell service in the Boston area. Frustrating, but they were afraid the devices may have been controlled remotely, so they had to kill off the cell towers for awhile.

    No major news agency on-line is saying there are casualties...

    Still, very tragic indeed. Praying for all affected.

    Edit: just read that there are officially 2 dead. Heartbroken... :cry:

    Prayers? (as if everyone with a moral compass does this)
    God?
    Death penalty?

    What is wrong YOU guys? This isn't the time for this selfishness.

    What is selfish is that you are attacking us for how we deal with things when you could say something helpful or uplifting. :)

    My thoughts are with them. I went through 9/11 this sucks.

    NY just stepped up security as a preventative measure.
  • Our local news station just confirmed that 3 are dead.It's sad !

    Someone else said it's up to 12...

    The New York Times has currently confirmed 12 are dead. :sad:

    The evil that exists in this world is disgusting.

    I'm really beginning to lose faith in humanity.

    Prayers/good vibes to all affected.

    What is wrong with YOU?

    If people want to pray, chant, send positive thoughts, or "WHATEVER", its their own business and choice. If you don't like it, stay out of the thread.
