Patriots Day - Boston Marathon - they go together like wine and cheese, well I personally don't care for wine with my cheese, but you get what I"m saying. Like everyone else, I had forgotten that yesterday was the Boston Marathon. I don't live there, I'm not a marathon runner, quite honestly if I had to run 26 miles it better be for my life - someone or something will be after me and if I stop, I'm dead. That would probably be the only reason I would run 26 freaking miles. I'm sorry I have a car, or public transportation, either one works great for me...
Back to the Boston Marathon - I was as shocked as everyone to discover that bombs had gone off near the finish line. At first I was just like, uh, what? Huh? Then people started talking about it, Skyping, Tweeting, Facebooking, so I turned on the news. The footage that was being shown was appalling to say the least. I felt like I was watching a movie, or footage from the Military Channel, not Fox News. Then to find out that the bombs were specifically created to cause the physical damage to the spectators, innocent people!!!! Not just blow up and BOOM, but to throw shrapnel into the air, causing such an amount of physical harm, was sickening.
I have much, much, much to say about this. I can go on, and on. But, all of this would simply be my opinions. Do I think it was an act of terrorism against our country? HELL YES!!!! I only pray that those who are held responsible for such an evil act of violence will pay for the crime that they have committed against our nation, the greatest nation, the United States of America.
If you would like to donate to help the victims the American Red Cross is a great place to start!
