BBC reporting of this was rather shambolic. They were still saying 2 dead 23 injured even after eyewitnesses had stated that it was much higher than 23 injuries and official statistics were released that added up to way more than 50. Also they continued to avoid using the word 'bomb' for hours after it was universally acknowledged to have been bombs. That and referring to pictures taken in the immediate aftermath as 'new pictures just coming in' 4 hours after the event, and having shown them dozens of times already. It seemed almost like they recorded the original news broadcast and then played it back repeatedly, only occasionally adding actual new information. the live text was much more reliable than the so-called live feed, despite lagging behind by quite some time. Shame that some people decided to ruin what seemed to be a very joyful event. I hope the police catch them quickly. best wishes to all those injured, whether physically or otherwise.
One of my FB acquaintance is from Boston, haven't heard from her since the incident. She usually updates her status every few hours. Not sure if she's been caught in the incident; she'd probably be present in the event, since she's a professional photographer. Might have been there to take some pictures for her postcard series for online sales. It's a pity terrorism is still targeting the innocent instead of directing it to the source of their rage.
Well they got the world's attention... that's for sure. But why? The person who did it is arrested. He probably wont say who organised it, if it was a terrorist group or if he was just some loner who wanted to blow something up. It's stupid.
This whole situation is rather unfortunate and awful, but you never hear news when America kills people with airstrikes.
Where did you see that, all I've seen is police saying they don't know who it was and they have no-one in custody at this point.
They were not arrested because some news agencies were making shit up. also how can the Sandy Hook princapal be injured in the bombings when she is dead. Spoiler
