it seems quite coincedental that the 'bombs' went off right at the finish line if they weren't bombs... too set up to not be! maybe they aren't. just seems planned to me, but i agree that if they were intended to hurt many they weren't large explosions.

From the BBC's rolling coverage:
'The Boston Marathon Marathon's official account tweets: There were two bombs that exploded near the finish line in today's Boston Marathon. We are working with law enforcement to understand what exactly has happened.'

I've heard white suprematists, anti gun control activist, Muslim terrorist cells, etc. don't you think it's a bit irresponsible to speculate before you have ANY SOLID INFORMATION!?
- Thankfully, so far, your government is holding back on finger-pointing.Continuity
- But the news isn't. They're trying to fill airtime. They're now speculating - they used the word - WHY it happened. WGN Chicago.identity

All of these possible causes — from gas lines to neo-Nazis to Al-Qaeda — should be taken with a very large grain of salt. No-one knows right now, plain and simple. It's too soon.

From The Guardian's rolling coverage:
'4.13pm ET
Vice president Biden, in a statement, has referred to a "bombing," not an "explosion," Dan Roberts reports in Washington.
"Our prayers are with those people in Boston who have suffered injuries," Biden said.
The marathon's organisers have also referred to "bombs". But there is no official confirmation of that from law enforcement agencies yet.'
