Reports are coming in everywhere about multiple explosions at the finish line of the Boston Marathon. At least 30 people are believed to be seriously injured. There is a graphic photo on twitter showing possible limbs and lots of blood. Jesus.

The blasts happened at about 2:50 p.m. near the intersection of Boylston and Exeter streets. Store fronts have been blown out, and there have been reports of dozens of injuries.

Witnesses said several victims lost limbs, and the area was being evacuated.

The first explosion happened across from the Lenox Hotel and the second blast was about 15 seconds later, witnesses said.

Many of the injured appeared to be spectators who gathered for the 117th running of the race.

What is wrong with people these days? Sad that people think the answer is violence if these were in fact planned explosions.

They are saying the explosion happened in the building not on the ground.

Just a thought; could this pair of explosions be symbolic of the twin towers and only a sign of more attacks to come? I sure hope not.

Who knows...I suspect it'll take some time to get it all sorted out as to who, what, why, how.

Looks like there will be fatalities. This is sickening.
