Just seen the live pictures of the 3 bombs that have exploded at the fnish line to the Boston marathon. Just sickening. RIP to all those killed. I so hope this is not the start of more terrorism targets both there and over here. The London marathon is on Sunday. They are talking on the news whether to postpone it or not.

They don't know whether they were bombs or not, the Boston Police have been clearly stated that the third explosion is unrelated to the two explosions that occurred at the Marathons finish line. The London Marathon is going ahead but security measures are being reviewed.

I know just dreadful. It was all caught live on TV as one of them went off at the finish line. The blast knocked several runners off their feet.
It seems now that it was only 2 bombs not 3

Have not seen the pictures but just read it on the sporting life page, terrible and shocking, totally sickened by it.
Nothing surprises me anymore in this sicko world.
R.I.P to all those killed

Just watching this too. Just read on twitter they have found two more devices and have defused them. At this stage the explosion at the JFK library may not have been a bomb but a unrelated fire.
My thoughts are with those caught up in this.

Unfortunateley, I think this is the life we have to get used to. Just look at todays news here in the UK about the teenagers in Liverpool who killed for the 'dare'. There is absolutely no sense in any of it, Life has become meaningless to many people. Who's to blame... I honestly don't know, it seems the more advanced we become the more savage we also become.
The 'haves' and 'havenots' is not that simple, it is the 'haves' that have the means to do these things. I just fear for my grandchildren for the world they will inherit... and we need someone who can come forward and 'save us from ourselvles', because the current crop have got no idea whatsoever.

Feel for the poor families that have lost loved ones & those injured. The third explosion was at the JFK library, thankfully, nobody injured. Until they find out more or someone/a group admits they did it & it was bombs, then it's all confusion at the moment. www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-22160691

Awful awful news. War is bad but this kind of terrorism is the worst. Horrifying pics and vids online. Awful.

Sadly, that's exactly right, Dolly. Terrorist groups normally admit they did it, haven't seen any mention of any yet.
Obviously, the security will be upped for London, but I really hope that it's not cancelled.
