Sorry to hear about the friend Cali, how has Chris reacted to the news of you knowing a chick hurt in all this mess?
I missed the boat on the "pressure cooker bomb" stuff Greg, is this a widely reported term? Is that why you think this is not "home stuff" RJ?
I've kinda agreed with Daft's #55 post thinking this was a Bostonian radical anti-gov type...
a guy or small group that saw this as a perfect opportunity to get HIGH HIGH press, attention, and US emotion for actual human collateral damage that amounts to less than a weekend night of Pennsylvania drunk driving or FAR less than the average per day US casualty number in Iraq since 2003.
if it was foreign radical (muslim) terrorist types that did this, than I think they would have taken responsibility and tried to get people in middle eastern countries to dance in the streets at the "great" news, by now.
They didn't seem to worry that the killing of all those day care kids at the bottom of the World Trade Center somehow made their act less holy and awesome, so I don't think they'd worry too much about this 8 year old either.
IF it was a big time group like Al Queda then I could see them not claiming responsibility due to the fact that they didn't get a big enough number of deaths and injuries.
I mean its been 10.5 years, and since then the best they can do is 2 deaths and a couple dozen limbs?
