Explosions rock Boston Marathon; several injured

So now no arrests have been made and while they have an image of someone of interest, they haven't even identified him yet.

Good job, media.
 
There is breaking news that the Boston Federal Courthouse is being evacuated.

BOSTON -- The federal courthouse in Boston was being evacuated Wednesday afternoon following conflicting reports that a possible suspect in this week's bombings was being taken there.

Around 3 p.m., a TPM reporter inside the courthouse heard loudspeakers announce, "Code red, code red. Building evacuation immediately." Court staff and others inside then began quickly filing out of the building.

Fire trucks were seen in front of the building, along with a police officer accompanying a dog sniffing the trunks of cars.

Live video outside the courthouse showed police yelling at a crowd things like, "Get out of the way!" and "You have to leave the area!"

TPM's Eric Lach contributed reporting from the Boston.

Code Red usually means fire so that probably isn't a big deal. Not like another bombing would be.
 
Sorry, confused you with one of the prime posters of DCC's past.
 
They had to evacuate one of the cafeterias in one of the House buildings yesterday and one of the Senate buildings this morning. Crazy shit.
 
Patton Oswalt FB message...pretty great:

Boston. Fucking horrible.

I remember, when 9/11 went down, my reaction was, “Well, I’ve had it with humanity.”

But I was wrong. I don’t know what’s going to be revealed to be behind all of this mayhem. One human insect or a poisonous mass of broken sociopaths.

But here’s what I DO know. If it’s one person or a HUNDRED people, that number is not even a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the population on this planet. You watch the videos of the carnage and there are people running TOWARDS the destruction to help out. (Thanks FAKE Gallery founder and owner Paul Kozlowski for pointing this out to me). This is a giant planet and we’re lucky to live on it but there are prices and penalties incurred for the daily miracle of existence. One of them is, every once in awhile, the wiring of a tiny sliver of the species gets snarled and they’re pointed towards darkness.

But the vast majority stands against that darkness and, like white blood cells attacking a virus, they dilute and weaken and eventually wash away the evil doers and, more importantly, the damage they wreak. This is beyond religion or creed or nation. We would not be here if humanity were inherently evil. We’d have eaten ourselves alive long ago.

So when you spot violence, or bigotry, or intolerance or fear or just garden-variety misogyny, hatred or ignorance, just look it in the eye and think, “The good outnumber you, and we always will.”

True, and I agre ewith every word, but I still sit back and wonder at the destruction so small of a percentage of the population can do. It's really fucking sad.
 
There are pictures all over the interweb now of people with backpacks.
 
The name of the main suspect has been leaked: Richard Jewell Jr

I think they have their man
 
Two suspects: Guy circled and guy in blue.
