If the rumors on the number are true, then damn, that's either one very fast terrorist or a whole cell of them.

This isn't random crap, this is the Boston Marathon. Also, lots of people think violence is a very effective way to communicate their attitudes about something. I would agree, but I wouldn't call it right.

Post bombing, everything looks like a bomb. An unaccompanied backpack becomes a nuclear device. It's common that people overreact to things they'd overlook other days.

my money on people being trampled. but it;s more likely an exaggeration
All around disagreeable person.

"Personal freedom is a double edged sword though. On the one end, it grants more power to the individual. However, the vast majority of individuals are fuckin idiots, and if certain restraints are not metered down by more responsible members of society, the society quickly degrades into a hedonistic and psychotic cluster fuck."

It was at the finish line, where the crowd is usually the largest.
