    Thought I would spread the word incase we have any fleet members here living in Boston or if anyone knows people in Boston. So far 2 people have been reported killed, I really hope they find the crazy idiot who did this.

    To anyone here who might be participating in the Boston Marathon and to those who live there, My thoughts are with you today. It's times like these I think the death penalty is too mild for this kind of unspeakable act.

    My prayers are with the people impacted by this cowardly act of violence.

    Death with Death is not Justice but Revenge.

    I hope the people of Boston recover quickly and show whoever is responsable that they will not loose their rationality and act in the same manner as those who rely on fear and terror. That they will wake up and go to their jobs and schools, because when you choose to take revenge or change your life due to Evil. Evil wins...


    EDIT: These attacks were intended to frighten Boston into anarchy and Retreat. They have failed. Boston saw the very worst of human nature, yet responded with the very best. We see in the video above Americans not fleeing from the scene of Terror but instead running towards, to help their wounded brother and sister. With Runners running to get themselves to hospital as quickly as possible, to give blood, to save lives. Let us not focus on the work of evil, but instead focus on the duty, bravery and honour in which America has shown to the world. In the service of not revenge or retaliation, but to each other.

    I am saddened by the loss of life and for those who were injured (whether critically, seriously, or mildly). This is a sad day for the citizens of not only that city, but of the country as a whole. I prayer for the people still affected by this tragedy and for those who lost their lives from such an inhumane act that is nothing short of cowardice. May the guilty parties be found and brought to justice.
