i know it's an inevitability, but, it there are a myriad possible causes for this (including accident) so can i ask for ppl to keep speculation to a minimum. don't pull a cnn here.

Oh Remy hasn't but he doesn't work anywhere near the finish line. Unless schools are closed because it's Patirot's Day?
CAD - Dan posted on FB that he worked from home today. He's fine. If he'd gone in he'd have been 2 blocks from the finish line.

It's going to be a fucking nightmare getting home tonight. I wonder if the T will be running. There's also a big Red Sox game today which I'm right around the corner from. I wonder what's going on there security wise.

If the cops are saying that they're still finding "secondary devices" I feel like it's probably not an accident.

Ah OK that would explain all these people outside. I thought maybe they were leaving because of the other thing.

You obviously have not been a muslim for the last, oh, say three decades... MUSLIMS care if it was a muslim or not who did this.
