It is frustrating. There are so many sources reporting different things that I haven't known what to believe from the very beginning.Automatik;1426717 wrote:So many conflicting reports.
Earlier I saw an article that said hospitals reported they were not "removing ball bearings from patients", only "street" materials that were thrown from the blast.
More conflicting stuff.dlazz;1426718 wrote:I take "suspicious package" reports with a grain of salt. The 7 "bombs" detonated yesterday by the bomb squad are proof of that.
It happens.Automatik;1426721 wrote:More conflicting stuff.
One source says "controlled detonations" occurred yesterday, today....no other bombs.
Typical media.
The inherit problem with the internet, round the clock news reporting and the "information age." Yes, we are in the information age where there is a limitless amount of information out there and much of which can be completely contradictory.FatHobbit;1426719 wrote:It is frustrating.

Yeah that's how I felt things went as well.FatHobbit;1426749 wrote:I'm giving Rec a little bit of a pass here.

He was trolling hard and in doing so proved that nothing Justin could do can save this site from itself. Its not the mods, its not the thread banning...its the fact our society is full of fucktards that get off on pissing others off.FatHobbit;1426749 wrote:I'm giving Rec a little bit of a pass here.
