:/ 8 year-old among the dead. Sad.

Kim Il-Sung's birthday is today, right? (And of course, we all know he's not dead... since he's pretty much considered immortal...)

[dominicansoul]

the motherhouse of the Daughters of St. Paul is in Jamaica Plains

[CatherineM]

Oh carp. I just remembered that my cousin's convent is in Boston.

[mysisterisalittlesister]

My sister lives in Boston :(

[add]

Absolutely insane that the most friendly peaceful sport there is could be used for an attack of a psychopath

I  don't think it was  NK. I mean their propaganda news may very well take credit for it but I don't think they had anything to do with it.

One of the Bombs that didnt go off is the one just next to the seminary.  No word on all of my state's seminarians, or any others, who get the day off cuz they run right through there.  They always hang there.  My Priest told us of his Boston marathon memories at the Prayer service today.

I don't think they did it either, but some "friend" of NK could have chosen today and the marathon for that reason.

Prayers for the dead and injured.

CNN is now reporting that a third victim has died of their injuries at the hospital. :(

Very sad. :(

 

 

I'm glad it's not 12 like the New York Post was reporting earlier, though.

This is disgusting.

Very sad. :(

Amen...saw that on Drudge earlier and glad it was wrong and just born out of the widespread confusion.  :(

the motherhouse of the Daughters of St. Paul is in Jamaica Plains

 

Sr. Margaret Michael the Vocations Director said it was in Boston. I believe her. I don't believe you. And I am not going to argue with you in a thread like this.

Calm the hell down. That's a region of Boston.

[Lilllabettt]

lol that escalated quickly.

 

Hmmm would Jamaica Plains people claim Boston? Would Boston claim Jamaica Plains? If you can get there on the T, you're in Boston. If you hear somebody panicking cuz they can't  find their  "cah keez" and can't tell if they lost car keys or pahnts, you're probably in Boston.

If you haven't seen the video of it happening on Facebook, I don't recommend watching it without prudential judgement first. It really isn't the easiest video I've ever watched.

Oh no, I wasn't trying to argue, I was actually trying to calm your fears...the bombs exploded on Boylston Street blocks away from Copley Square...and Jamaica Plain is not in that area...

 

 

I don't even think the Marathon runs through Jamaica Plain...

 

 

 

...sorry for the misunderstanding, didn't mean to upset you!

My cousin's convent moved from Roxbury to Duxbury last September. She hasn't returned my email, but she's a nurse who runs towards explosions or earthquakes, so I don't expect her to immediately.
