    If this is outside terrorism it's time to cut the head off the snake and bury the body parts in pig fat. This is the ultimate act of cowardice.

    Three dead now and they're still confirming no suspect at any hospital, though the news media is making a big point about, and I quote, "all the swat carrying large semi-automatic rifles, those big scary ones..." Don't let a tragic moment go to waste.
    Some of the media are still running incorrect stories even after the 830 news conference.
    Meanwhile some sick bastard is sitting in a room somewhere with thirty televisions getting off on all the coverage he's getting.

    There would probably be more deaths and the injured would not have received the same level of care in most other places. Thank God for Boston Hospitals.

    The campus out at Longwood is so amazingly interconnected. So many top of the line hospitals right there.
    I've done a bit of work at BWH and DFCI. You almost wish they had those sliding walkways like airports have just to get around there.
    It's huge.

    One thing for sure: Boston has some of the best hospitals in the world. If life and limb can be saved, it's there. God bless them all and guide them in this difficult time!!!
    Now...let's not forget (i.e. keep an open mind) that we too have some of the best home grown lunatics of our own. Hope that's not the case, (don't even know why I say that) but it could be. Just hope they catch them whoever they are.

    Can we trust them to tell the truth?

    Some of these lunatics can be stopped, but not all. Disarming citizens isn't the answer. Effective punishment is. An eight-year-old little girl was massacred today. I cannot conceive of ANY punishment that would be cruel or unusual for whoever is responsible for this evil.

    You can punish all you want AFTER the fact but it doesn't stop suicidal lunatics. They....don't ....care.
    To me, it's parallel paths. Severe punishment for sure, but prevention as well. Can't have one without the other.

    Agreed. However, most are homicidal, not suicidal. And we can make an example of those that will surely discourage their kind.

    Those would be ours, of the Timothy McVey variety. Theirs, however, got the 72 virgin mindset and the only thing we can do in their case is diffuse them before they strike. "Our" way of thinking and reasoning does not apply to them. The sooner we realize that, the sooner we can strat dealing with this metastatic cancer instead of treating tumors as they appear on the scan.

    I like to attribute the plain meaning of words to our law. That makes far more sense than redefining the common vernacular. Ask the parents of that 8-year-old child who was killed today to describe any punishment they feel would be too cruel for her killers. Ask her mom and dad what could be a more unusual punishment then ending their child's life by tearing her body apart with a shrapnel laden bomb. Screw the ACLU. "Cruel and unusual" are relative terms. I'm not a savage. However, I'd gladly employ the most lingering excruciating public torture ever conceived of as punishment in cases such as this.
