Al, this is very thoughtful of you, I too send my deepest sympathies to all who have suffered because of this terroristic action.
It is unconscionable to be de-sensitized to feelings and emotions of other human beings and to disregard life to the extent of self-destruction! May the Lord open their hearts and minds!
Thank you, Al.
There were some horrible injuries and deaths.
But it looks like they've caught the culprits.
One is dead and one is holed up, last I checked.
It just makes you wonder how some people can be so full of hate for people they don't even know...
Boston will be breathing easier this morning though it is worrying that these brothers appeared not to have been able to intergrate into mainstream society.
Candace the explosion/fire has been major news here in the UK and we were sorry to hear about it.
Atrocities always feel more horrific when they are in your own back yard.
My heart still goes out to the injured, the families of the dead, as well as the families of the two bombers.
