Tipped off by my scanner. 17,000 people listening to FDNY dispatch.

Bomb went off 5 min walk from sister in laws dorm room in Chelsea, New York just now. Her roommate felt the blast. She's fine. Hope they catch the scumbags quicker than the Tsarnaev bros.

Stolen from a comments section. I believe they sum it up correctly.

In Afghanistan and Iraq these were known as IEDs and very common place. Iran built some especially lethal designs that slaughtered your sons, husbands and friends.

In Obama's America they are labeled "intentional acts'.

My brother did forensics work with IEDs over in Iraq and Afghanistan. He was part of a group called CEXC, Combined Explosives Exploitation Cell. By analyzing the designs and electronics in the triggers they were able to trace things back to country of origin. He could tell me a lot about his job, but he had to leave that part to my imagination.

He still works for them, but I'm sure he hoped these particular skills would never be needed stateside.

Sounds like a Boston Marathon type bomb. Witnesses said they saw lots of black smoke. Dumpster may have contained the blast. Was other report of another IED made out of a pressure cooker nearby. This is merely speculation on my part and what I read on Google news.

Dang, my nephew and his new wife just moved to the married student housing in Chelsea, right near the explosion. He texted that they're ok. Big difference from their hometown, Katy, Texas. I'll be glad when they move back home.

Seems like you are correct....

"A possible secondary device was located a few blocks away on 27th Street, between 6th Avenue and 7th Avenue, the NYPD Special Operations Division said at 11 p.m. The device, a pressure cooker, was removed by authorities. It was in a white plastic bag with tape, wiring and a cell phone or other electronic device."

I have to hand it to Libs, they have really tightened the feedback loop on their social experiments.

1. Disarm the good people
2. Import bad people
3. ???


I could be on my Jump to Conclusions Mat but the trend is going this way. You can tell by the first press briefings. When they make vague/stupid statements about the act and attempt to downplay the consequences you know something's up.

Intentional Act would seem to indicate some possibility that the dumpster could have sploded on it's own.
